[Ruthless-RKO]

This has started now on Sky Sports

[skanksta]

MMcG 10-9

winning R1 with a decent body combination.

[skanksta]

Saad (off the deck) wakes up to nick a close round. 1-1

[skanksta]

MMCG is dictating the play in R3 - 2-1.

[skanksta]

Saad is fighting like he's a big puncher - despite being 8-0 (0)
Walking MMCG down and trying to corner him and unload big single shots.

MMcG handling it easy. 3-1 MMcG

[skanksta]

Saad's best round R5 - 2-3 Saad.

[joshj909]

Will the Azeez fight be at about 9:30?

[skanksta]

MMcG wins R6 for 4-2.

Saad is lazy and MMCG wants it.

[skanksta]

Tesco Joe with some good advice, "don't give the ref an excuse to take a point off"

Is Mac doing enough to win a dec away from home...?

[skanksta]

Saad steals R7 with a late flurry and dodgy home scoring..

4-3 MAC.

[skanksta]

First really clear round of the fight.., and it's for Saad !
Backed up MAC and hurt him.

4-4 Draw. Expect Saad to take it.....

[skanksta]

Tesco Joe and Barry J both have 5-2-1 MAC. Happy with that, Saad blew a winnable fight with laziness, or drew, or.....

[Black Sam Bellamy]

Thought Saad won that narrowly, personally.

[skanksta]

77-75 Saad, 2x 76-76

So it's a draw.
Mac got "home advantaged stolen" rather than outrageous robbery. It's the Saad winning card that grates.

[skanksta]

Thought Saad won that narrowly, personally.

Well there you go.
I did say "not outrageous robbery".

[skanksta]

Lauren Price - one of the few women who looks strong and really hard.

10-9 and she wins every round unless otherwise stated.

[skanksta]

Price has fast hands, but this fight is total women's boxing meh

[unknownman79]

Can Yoka stop Takem?

[unknownman79]

Can Yoka stop Takem?

[JamesPhilips]

Can Yoka stop Takem?

Possibly

[skanksta]

8-0 x3 for Price.

[Grilling Machine]

I feel bad for liking some of the women but not being interested in their fights. They absolutely need 3-min rounds. Maybe 6 rounds standard and 8 for world titles.

[skanksta]

France caning us on National Anthem again.

[skanksta]

I feel bad for liking some of the women but not being interested in their fights. They absolutely need 3-min rounds. Maybe 6 rounds standard and 8 for world titles.

Absolutely.
And for MatchRoom (et al.) just to show us the good women and not all this dross. A crap prospect fight from women is somehow even more boring than the men's dross....

Now come on Dan, Put this overmatched Frenchman away in some style...
