Just want to create a thread to offer congratulations to Simpson. Regardless of the way the fight ended, the win was very much merited after the way Simpson was stiffed against Williams.
I do feel a little sorry for Morris though, but hopefully there will be a rubber match between the two. A cracking fight that should have lasted a little longer, but Simpson deserved a touch of luck.

Re: John Simpson
Yeah, I agree.... Simpson was shafted vs Williams and kinda deserves the title. It would have been interesting had the fight continued, Simpson was getting confident (due to the cut).glittermonkey wrote:Just want to create a thread to offer congratulations to Simpson.

I felt that Morris may have deserved another round, out of courtesy for the champ, but that cut was very bad and it was early in the fight too, so I wouldn't argue with the ref's decision. Morris isn't a big puncher and I doubt that the fight wouldn't have turned around over the course of the next few rounds. Gutted for Morris but pleased for Simpson.
