ive got maxi 77 75

[Neil Gee]

I'm not scoring but no way there's 4 rounds in this for me

[skanksta]

Anyone scoring Ward vs Hughes ?
Bellew got 57-57 thru' 6.
I got 59-55

Who for?

Ward.
It's a close fight, but Ward seems to be a little sharper throughout.
I got him comfortable 97-93 thru' 10 now

I'm not scoring it but Bellew seems to be massively in favour of Hughes. I think it's fairly close.

On a separate note, I'd love it if I could watch boxing with the sound of the punches and crowd but without any commentary. Same with football. The commentators often take something away from the action.

[skanksta]

Seem to have got a round ahead of myself - Ward wins the 10th so I'm 96-94 thru' 10 I guess.

[Neil Gee]

It's Flash vrs Grit. I think Hughes wants it slightly more, just wish he had the skills to match his heart.

[Boxing Prospect]

Felt Hughes winning marginally...but ah well seems like I'm in the minority

115 113 martin ward for me.tony Bellew has called that fight spot on as far as im concerned.

Ward falling short for the first b6 rounds and maxi countering,ward gets a kick up the arse in the 9th comes out and takes the remaining rounds

[jamesmcdonnell]

Anybody got a stream. Still in spain.....

[ILikeBeer]

Don't mind that result.

[dhb-raging bull]

Ward didnt get out second gear there in my eyes felt he knew he had hughes number and let him himself switch off because of it ward could be so much better if he didnt switch off so much through fights hughes done himself well today he can come again and give it another crack

[ILikeBeer]

Anna.

Ward was poor imo dont think he'll be bothering the world champs anytime soon

Yer wasnt the best prefomance and he doesnt get nowhere near world level liam walsh would run rings around him and probably stop him

i dont think youre giving maxi enough credit there,he boxed well but he just ran out of steam.maybe ward did switch off but it was the first half of the fight he went missing for..?!

[daviddee]

Why didn't Ward fight like that v Clark?? Staying in the pocket like that and trading he has some bad flaws when fighting a non puncher.. I agree Ward was poor and well done to Maxi loads and loads of heart.. If Ward fights like that v Cacacae he will get knocked out

Me neither, but then...

I thought that about Crolla, Ricky Burns and quite a few more.

Yeh I think there was an element of overconfidence. I wanted Hughes to win, I prefered what he was doing early on, but Ward took over down the stretch there's no denying it.

[dhb-raging bull]

Hughes fought a cracking fight taking nothing away from him he made that hard tonight and if ward didnt get the kick up the arse un the 9th he could av gone on to nick thought ward took over after the 9th some cracking fights out there when ward moves onto europen level and hughes will be right in the mix of things

[ILikeBeer]

That Skeletor advert was the most homosexual thing in the history of the world.

[ThereByTheGrace]

Great second well done boys

[Boxing Prospect]

Morrison doesn't look much special here...Welborn was giving him hell until the ear

[ILikeBeer]

Agreed.

[Neil Gee]

Great round!
