I can’t believe he’s a middleweight. Visually he looks like a bantamweight

The amount he got caught in his last fight was quite worrying for me too. Barker saying he's got power but just don't see it myself .

One to keep an eye on to bet on him losing there.


Junaid Bostan up next. Seems to have rocketed to 8-0 has a decent KO percentage and has also boxed in America so he has had good development.

Seems to be having a similar fight to what Campbell Hatton had in his last fight, fighting an Area champ with a view to fighting for the English title.

Opponent seems an established area champ as well having got a few defences of the southern area and also has some KO victories at that level.

Bostan looks about 2 weights above. Still the Billy Hardy lookalike is tough

he really is and sending the odd reminder to Bostan to stay switched one.

Tough Martin dropped in rd 8, ref compassionate stoppage. Martin did well and fought bravely but had taken enough. Well done Bostan.

likely youthful acne, no physique indicators it's anything other than overactive sebaceous glands.

Bostan must have piled weight on rehydrating .

I thought he started to look a little tired and ragged and pulled that out .

Martin has got to be one of the toughest geezers in the game .

Junaid got a lot to work on - power, stamina, concentration.., but he's a quality prospect for sure.

McGrail looked the absolute business against Quinn - total domination and moving in for a beatdown stoppage...,
BOOM !
Suddenly he was twitching on the floor - might be just a Lennox/Khan thing, or might be chinny and gunshy.
They've picked Leach as a non-puncher and he should totally outclass him, but after a KO like that you never know...


Good match :box:

McGrail's an amateur stand out mate, Commonwealth gold and maybe European? Leach former British champion, good fight so far

McGrail cut.

He's an amazing talent - PPV level superstar potential - but he'll never get there with his boy-next-door chin and toughness.

Shut out for McGrail, really dominant performance, pressed from the opening bell, pressured with his hands and feet, his footwork especially is sublime, cuts the ring off effortlessly, put combinations together, Leach tough, was able to time the occasional counter in between punches but he couldn't handle the volume, spent long spells on the ropes, McGrail couldn't hurt him really but gave him a going over, impressive
