Price cause she won the gold and sky love woman's boxing. Price and girlfriend are dire to watch. Artingsall fight was a worse fight to watch at the Bournemouth stadium than the CBS - Okoile fight.
tbf she keeps her ear to the ground with what is developing. which is easy as they're already touching the ground.

Bridges has a title defence coming up in Los Angeles I think. She posted a poster of the fight in the last week I’m sure.

Courtenay is hoping for a fight vs Nina Hughes I think.

Laws I think knows he can’t trust his cardio to go 8 so he has to try and throw what he has early.

Hennessy dealing with it early so far by the look of it. Not convinced Hennessy is hurt by any of these shots Laws is landing so far.

Hennnessy looks fit and unfazed, some good combinations, even a bit of stance switching too.

Joe much smaller and it shows.

I think it’s telling that Sky are putting this off of sky sports. Not the first time they have done this basically to get in extra viewers and then say the viewer numbers aren’t dropping.

I remember back in the day we’d have adverts for the first 4 rounds of the main event then only after then we’d be able to hear what they are saying.

Fair play Hennessy very smart here. Beating him on the jab. In terms of just the basic punches Hennessy is miles in front and can keep it simple.

Now being stupid in response to stupidity from Laws.

Just let him blow himself out Mick, you’ll take him out in the 7th round if you do.

this is a good fight. Laws still in there, albeit mainly when the clapper goes. Hennnessy has a good chin, or Joe no power.
