Something with his hair. A transplant?

A touch of the John Merrick about his head and hair shape

What a crap announcer.
Not an original idea in his repertoire.

I can’t imagine these are Rob McCracken’s tactics

Troy’s hair seems to have moved. Hopefully we’re not going to get another baby Miller here.

Simpson trying to bully Williamson on the ropes throughout the second. Picked up a cut for his efforts though.

Callum took it to bullying him on the ropes, got caught by a big right hand towards the end though

Williamson rocked in the third. Didn’t look like he was recovering too well from it either.

Simpson needs to get him out of there.
Troy lots of heart and if he gets the chance later could take over

Williamson looks nearly ready to go here in R4

The bounce has gone out of him after taking that damage. He looked badly rocked end of R3

Better 4th round for Williamson. Put a dangerous looking burst together at the end.

Yeah, I think Callum needs to win quite soon with these tactics otherwise Troy is going to steamroll him late again

This is a fascinating fight after 6 rounds.

When Williamson gets the chance to punch from range, it looks ominous for Simpson. But he’s making these bully boy tactics work, so far.

For what a finish to the 9th from Williamson. Finally made Simpson pay inside with a peach of a left hook.

Superb domestic dust up, I think Troy needs a KD at least to have any chance

It looks like the bully tactics have just about taken enough out of Williamson. He’s still throwing some heat here and there but struggling to produce the quality often enough.
