Ads between rounds annoy me.

But when the rounds are only 2 minutes long you really are taking the piss.

If they ever put a womens fight on ppv i'll be doing my nut about that

If women can run marathons they can do 12x3 - no reason whatsoever for this silly two-tier system.
Let the girls fight :bag:

She's as spiteful a puncher as I've seen in the ladies game and doesn't give her opponents a minute.
But there's obvious mistakes she needs to clear up, her punching technique goes when shes looking for shots and herthe commentator has picked up on losing her stance a couple times
Think Taylor would be the better boxer

You'd have to fancy KTT if they fought tomorrow, but CC was tremendous tonight.
With a little more polishing it could be a real 50/50 fight in a year or so :box:

The main commentator trying to be a bit critical while Richie Woodhall could be accused of a bit of cheerleading there.

There's certainly plenty to work with.
Physically she must be a nightmare to face if she can keep that up for 12 rounds.

Just hearing Joe Hughes story there.
He's had a think called erb's palsy since birth.
His arm is shorter and under developed, he lacks mobility in it and can't build the muscle mass properly down the right hand side.
Unbelievalble story to get where he is.

Nothing unusual from a channel 5 show. no one there really, who wants to watch a boxing match at 23.30pm at night in a leisure centre, needs to be a barn stormer. If this was in Bristol more may of turned up. Eubank, Degale and Fury attracted poor crowds as well but that was mainly down to the promoter being poor.

W@rren or McGuigan need to pay up and get Yigit to stay at the weight for one more fight to defend his European against either Catterall or Taylor...

Really good tussle that, I had Yigit a comfortable 118-112 winner but it was a lot more competitive than that , there is a lot of fighters who are reliant on one hand but no more so than Hughes who really has a disadvantage with his shorter and less mobile right hand, he makes up for it though with an iron will and granite chin, he really digs they left hooks into the body and he has a decent jab too when he uses it, he works tirelessly and makes his opponents work for their openings

Yigit just had that little bit more class though to get the last say in most rounds and had the better punch variety which proved key, he improved as the fight went on, showed excitement by trying to get Hughes out of there as well, he's a tidy southpaw with grit but Taylor will dismantle him in 5 rounds
