Practically breaking Garcia in half with his body attack. Seems if he wants, he can take him out.

100-90 Conlan. Not yet world level, but impressive.

Anyone else spot Mick coming out to Wolfe Tones 'Celtic Symphony', with the line 'ooh ahh, up the Ra, say ooh ahh up the Ra'?

Conlan was in total control, never lost a round but again with him it was just a bit boring for me, his footworks great, some lovely pivots coming over with the left or right hook, some nice feints etc but he's not a puncher and he's a bit slappy with his shots, I preferred him in the rare times he fought orthodox, his jab looked stronger and he came over with a couple of nice right hands, he lunges in with the jab as a southpaw or at least he did here, his work downstairs was probably his best weapon

Hernandez was total sh1t and offered next to nothing

Biggest positive for Conlan was his body work, very one-sided fight with little in the way of eye-catching action. Thought Conlan might have pushed a bit more for a possible stoppage but seemed relatively content boxing his way to the finish.

Collazo deserved his win earlier on I thought!
