Think it meant drinking ?
Cacace looks like a great guy to go out on the beers with tbf.

Jadier Herrera looked very good ! . :box:

They're praising Mark Bates ref performance - rightly so - he leapt in and deflected a punch that coulda really damaged the Colombian

definitely, really good to see a ref like that.

Enjoying this card, really like Frampton Woodhall and Rawling on comms too.

Love Jack Turner's attitude - the gamest guy you'll see :salut:

Demanding the doctor and his trainer let him fight on when he's 9 -0 down and cut to ribbons.

Can Kelsall win a fight like this ?
As an Englishman in Ireland !? "shades of Ali" but he's landing less than Hughie.

Comms talking like Kelsall is some sort of master boxer (like BJS !), but he's a light-hitting back-foot stylist on away soil vs a the A side....

I don't get it ? :maybe:

2-1 Quinn , he's not landing much but a handful of stiff jabs better than Kelsall's air shots

That was actually worth watching as instruction on how bad boxing can be :doh:

If Kelsall gets it, I'll never watch him again...

116-113 Quinn for me, no complaints Kelsall got it, it was dreadful, Kelsall's a slippery mover, never stops but he barely landed a meaningful punch, nearly everything was partially blocked or missed and there was no purchase in his shots, that does nothing for me, I can't score them , Quinn was pretty dire as well, his feet were too slow to close the gap, didn't put nearly enough pressure on but his 3 or 4 punches he landed every round trumped the work of Kelsall, footwork and lateral movement are essential in boxing but at the end of the day it's about scoring punches, I just thought Quinn got enough left hooks off to edge most rounds, was always gonna be close on the cards but I'm in no rush to see Kelsall again, when he ran away from Quinn in the last round and Quinn showed zero urgency to track him down, it summed the fight up perfectly, diabolical viewing, happy for Kelsall all the same, Commonwealth champ now

herrera easily stopped jeff ofori in 4 too, one to watch for sure. bit of a flag that he missed weight for that fight. granted it was just by a bit, but pretty quick into his career to be missing weight

The arena started emptying before the main event. Almost like they knew what was coming up.
