Brook KO Gavin r3

Joshua Dec Johnson (some scares for AJ)

Mitchell TKO Linares late

Selby Dec Gradovich



Kevin Johnson is talking alot for this fight... i really hope he throws a couple of punches and doesn't embarrass himself again.

[Freedom2013]

The undercard has begun.

The first few fights are apparently being streamed for free on the SKY website, but not available in my country.

[Freedom2013]

Ryan-Hibbett is a good scrap.

Ryan has been down twice so far, but he keeps coming back. He's a warrior.

[Freedom2013]

Ryan comes back after being down twice and stops Hibbitts!

Great fight!

Ryan retains the commonwealth title.

Could it be watched on phone ??

[Daddieh77]

Thanks for the updates bro update the ryder fight pls

Gradovich-Selby is starting.

[Freedom2013]

Gradovich clearly won round two. Commentary is extremely biased in favor of Selby.

[Lenny Cravats]

I have it 3-1 Selby.

[Lenny Cravats]

3-2 Selby.

Some nice work from Selby, but his defence is lacking and Gradovich is throwing a lot more.

[kaiserbill]

Gradovich clearly won round two. Commentary is extremely biased in favor of Selby.

You've not watched a Jim Watts and co fight commentary before then?

It gets to the point when you have to switch off the sound to preserve your sanity.

They're basically cheerleaders, not commentators.

[Lenny Cravats]

Some good punching there from Selby, landing some really clean shots there. Had Gradovich hurt.

4-2 Selby.

[Lenny Cravats]

Gradovich cut, not sure if it was a head or a punch. Selby looks confident in measuring Gradovich with a left and landing a clean right.

5-2 Selby.

[Lenny Cravats]

Stopped on cuts.

Good performance from Selby, some really accurate punching.

It's going to cards, I think, but Selby was ahead.

[Lenny Cravats]

79-73
79-73
80-72

TD win for Selby. He looked very, very good.

[PsychoGamerTwo]

Lomachenko kills him.

[Lenny Cravats]

79-73, 80-72 and 79-73 to Selby. Anyone believing that Evgeny Gradovich won two rounds or more needs their head examining.

My scorecard was correct again.

I thought he won rounds 4 and 5, though they were close.

[Lenny Cravats]

Selby did look good, think the Sky team are going overboard with the 'Welsh Mayweather' stuff.

He good get himself in a good position at Feather, but with Lomachenko and Walters about, I can't see him advancing to top spot.

[Lenny Cravats]

Linares making his way down to the ring.

Can't see Mitchell winning this unless he cuts Linares up.

[diddy]

No surprise. Gradovich is average.

[Lenny Cravats]

Linares making his way down to the ring.

Can't see Mitchell winning this unless he cuts Linares up.

You could be surprised, because any rounds that are difficult to score could go to the hometown fighter.

Or one of the British refs does their thing.

Mitchell has looked good recently, but it wasn't that long ago that Burns hammered him.

[Neil Gee]

Close first round

[Lenny Cravats]

Mitchell started aggressively, Linares landed some good right hands towards the end of the round.

Close opener, but I'll give it to Linares.

[Neil Gee]

One of those hooks are gonna lay Mitchell out
