Did anyone notice desperate sky planted the story with the Daily Mail hacks about the police out driving around tonight with their special equipment, picking up signals from illegal streams and when found viewers would be “sent to prison”

If they want people to pay, make it worth paying for.

UK are robbing there boxers of highlight reel KOs. I aprove of that stoppage at "pre brittish levle", but these are fighting beyond that. he was stunned but not rocked.

but instead he is facing a past prime under sized glowaki whos been knocked earlyish in his last 2 meaningfull fights...
On the flip side its probably the only KO we are going to see on this card.
Clarke was very disappointing.
Was it that bad?

This was a good card on paper, but Parker stunk it out and didn't get the KO he should have.
Congo v EE was good, but it was never gonna be a thriller.
Glow was shot to bits and so that was crap.
Clarke's opponent was decent on paper, but a stone overweight and bailed out.
It has been crap.

The main event should be good...

He couldn't get the job done, even when his opponent gassed in the second round, and possibly hurt his arm in the fourth. I thought it was sub par even if t was his first pro fight.

I didn’t think the undercard was awful but, even beforehand, I didn’t think it was particularly good.

One competitive fight on paper for me and that’s how it turned out.

Parker should have done but I didn’t think he got out of first gear and coasted. I thought Parker won every round still and I don’t really think Massey tries to win. Seemed happy to go the distance.

Clarke was probably down to go the distance with an outside chance of a stoppage.
