Starting to look like the classic gutsy, strong Brit getting outclassed by the slicker American fighter. Have to wonder if Ball is paying the price for staying with his original coaching team - admire the loyalty but think this fight is showing that his raw gifts aren't enough at the top level and he needs to learn to set up his shots better etc.
Can't believe anyone has Ball up at this stage.

Ball had too much balls.

I guess we’ll be 1-1 after this.

This fight would have been a banger of a main event day at the o2 arena

What time is the main event? It's my daughter's birthday so the front room is full of 12 year old girls.

Might catch it on the radio.

Yep, the atmosphere absolutely sucks. This was a superb battle that would leave most fans hoarse from cheering afterwards.

I’d have no issue if Ball gets this. Ford was stronger by the end but he never dominated the guy.

Yep, I'm in the same camp of Ford by 2, but what a warrior Ball is. Insane never-say-die attitude.

Sorry, love Nick Ball, but just cannot see that at all. Work rate alone doesn't win fights.
