Round-by-Round: Jack Catterall vs. Arnold Barboza | DAZN - 15 February 2025

[skanksta]

Does he?

yeah !
busted up, doddery on the legs, looks like he might punch hisself out..

Gomez was struggling from round one. I've never been more convinced of a result than a RBB stoppage yet I never had a bet...

You're on fire tonight !

[keithmoonhangover]

Had a nightmare day, but I'm finally sat on my seat just after the third round. MGJ is hype job with a padded record who can't punch. First time at the Co-op, very nice from what I've seen.

[handsofstone]

Didn't expect the ending there, even though I had Bellotti winning every round along with a couple of knockdowns I actually thought Gomez Jr was landing a few big shots in the 9th, Bellotti was excellent though, his pressure and punch variety bamboozled Gomez Jr who tbf was tough, game and never tried to spoil or hold, he was getting off now and again but just not first, Bellotti had him down in the 5th with a cracking left hand snuck in to the solar plexus, Bellotti was just too hot to handle, even when Gomez Jr settled, Bellotti's relentless body punching had him down again in the 8th, same hand, as I say small signs Gomez Jr wasn't done so surprised to see the corner pull their man but Bellotti was a miles in front after the 9th

[steve689]

Expected Bellotti stoppage in about 8 or 9. Gomez Jr showed heart but he was outclassed in all honesty.

I'm listening on 5 Live, fvck DAZN!

[Offthehook]

Yeah.
I think Zelfa was wining in his head - always comfortable - but Jazza crafty and fiddled him throughout.
Only 96-94 for me tho'.

Zelfa barely won a round

Well, I was the same as one judge and one round away from the other two, got the right winner - not like I@m some Adelaide Byrd..

Lol I wouldn't use that one, there's a lot wrong with judges in boxing . As many have said on here, he was well beaten, but ur welcome to a different interpretation

[Offthehook]

Didn’t think it was close. Dickens looked a clear winner to me

Nice to see I was watching the same fight

[skanksta]

a nothing R1, but Jack edges it - "made him miss"

EG - 10-9

[steve689]

Barboza's not fast enough.

[dookus]

And Catterall edges the 2nd. Always the last word. 20-18

[skanksta]

2 nothing rounds
20-18 Jack, but that isn't really deserved.

[dookus]

3rd is slow. Both land some shots. Barbosa getting closer. 10-10, 30-28

[skanksta]

Barb getting closer..

2-2

[dookus]

Catterall continues holding his feet and drawing Barboza in, and now landing a few more left hands. Still a cagey fight. 40-37

[squiggy]

Jack "Paint Drying" Catterall

[steve689]

3-1 Barboza for me. Catterall letting rounds slip by.

[dookus]

49-47 Catterall for me

[skanksta]

You could score almost all the rounds 10-10.

Very technical, high-quality, but very little landed by either.

3-2 Gatt, but could be anything.

[dookus]

59-56 Catterall for me. Not much being landed but the better shots are from him.

[skanksta]

4-3 Jack for me, but "could be anything" ?

[dookus]

68-66 Catterall

[coneye]

Not much in it , close rnds but i would edge the rounds towards Barboza , just being slighly more effective , Catteral is a boring fighter to watch

[Boxerbeetle]

Woodhall and Buncey seem to think Barboza well on top.

[skanksta]

4-4 could be 6-2 ?

[steve689]

Barboza 5-3. Catterall getting home advantage points.
