[Fightnight Scores]

Great round 8...first one I gave to Richards

Think Buatsi's lead on the cards will be unassailable now barring a couple of knockdowns.

Hahaha loved the between rounds shot of the crowd and a coked up lunatic stands in his chair to get into line with the camera and shouts ‘Richards!!!!!!’

Always good to be reminded of the fighters surnames I suppose.

85 - 86 Richards, shining in the last three rounds. I sense some wide decision for Buatsi though, even at this rate.

[Fightnight Scores]

Our users on the fightnight scores site collectively have it quite wide. 7 rounds to 2 (1 even).

Hills 25/1 the draw ??

116-113 Buatsi.

[gregregegg]

good close fight. wont be close on the cards, and im not sayig it should be, but it was a close fight as a whole.

[JxhDel.]

115 - 113 JB, but Richards was the one who really surprised me.

Why?

Look at the shirts of Richards cornermen Einstein

I’ve got Buatsi 115-113 but wouldn’t be surprised if it was wider.
Great fight.

I have a 6-6 draw, but I can see why people think Buatsi is the winner.

GG got the draw with 2x 10-10s and Bunce has Spider by 2.

[Dioufy]

117-111
Fairly competitive rounds but conclusive win for me.

[skanksta]

116-112 and 115-113 x2.

That's seems fair.

No ambiguity regarding his allegiance there.

[joshj909]

Buatsi needs to be more active if he has any hope of winning a little. I think I underestimated Richards, he could be an upset for someone sooner or later.

[Dioufy]

I thought was wider than the cards.
Anyone else have 9-3 Buatsi?
Cannot see how anyone could have Spider winning tbh.

[milpool]

116-112 and 115-113 x2.

That's seems fair.

Yep, I think that’s pretty much on point.

[gregregegg]

type of fight i could have 3-3 with 6x 10-10s... but i was edging those 10-10s most of the time.

[SamWise72]

Thoroughly enjoyed that. Still very much sold on Buatsi

[ArmPuncher]

Had it 115-113 for Buatsi. If Richards started to mount his charge earlier, he easily could have won.

[Cholo_cws]

Bunce on 5Live had Richards by two.
