Yep good stuff from Dixon :TU:

He didn't get a stoppage, but it doesn't matter if you try and nearly get one.
Pay attention Lerrone !

Wow.

That was great, that was the sort of fight every TV show should aim to have. Well matched, fun styles, exciting, and we will remember that. If all undercards had bouts like that on them we'd care about the under cards, and tell you what, Dixon has made plenty of new bouts.

It should be common sense. Make fans share about your shows, your undercards and on following these kids. Not mismatch after fornicating mismatch

Enjoyed that and Dixon seems a top young lad based on that interview.
Great undercard fight, well done both :bag:

I think you’re being a bit harsh. It’s rare for a 20 year old prospect with only a few fights fighting someone who tries to win and thinks they’ll win. He stepped it up towards the end and I thought he looked good. Agree with your point about him backing off in straight lines though.

My main issue is that he seemed very small for the weight.

Matchroom have used it since Fight Camp.
I quite like it. It gets me all psyched up just to then watch a tentative ‘feeling out’ first round.
