Is there anyway of watching the earlier fights?

I've bought the PPV. Intrested in watching all of them. Shame Qrfan Iqubal pulled out.

Michael Alexander. Also reffed Eubank v Saunders. An omen I wonder? Mind you he was in charge of Eubank's win over Abraham also

Another early blow out for Parker, looks strong and finished Rodriguez off in style

I do think some refs are quick to wave a fight off after a second KD though

Glad Parker got the early stoppage as it meant we got to see Clay-Craven. Plenty to like about Luther. Slick footwork and tidy, accurate counterpuncher. Intelligent boxer who may well go places once he graduates and dedicates himself 100% to the sport

really like everything about this show. Good headliner, Good undercard, Good production.

Clay/ Craven was a lovely fight to get on as a little bonus, clay looks good and it was a hard test for him.... Decent scoring too!

39-38 -Langford

Arnfield has a lovely jab, and some really solid skills. if he mixes his work up more he can win this, Langford provides a lot of wasted energy . Obviously a good fighter but theres no thought in his shot selection more just combinations by numbers and they dont look natural at times.
