Prostko has 3 fights booked this month so he will be hoping for a points loss.

Paul Dempsey now on comms with Spencer. He is a brilliant commentator, epic voice!!!!

Remember many years ago and I'm talking about 30, when Dempsey was on sky sports with Gary Mason on Ringside. I sent a photo of my son to the programme with my lad who was about 3 or 4 at the time with boxing gloves on, they always did a letters chat, Dempsey and Mason, and my lads photo was shown.

Good old days of Sky, Ringside

Prostko not getting involved as he will be thinking 2 fights ahead.

If the corner pulled him out would he still get 28 days suspension?

Needham has way more ability. The Polish guy is game & fit, but no fluidity to his work.

I think it would be an automatic suspension.

Very game effort from the Polish fella in the 3rd.

The tide has turned, but has he instructions?

I won't go to local amateurs as I do not like local families shouting 'kbock the effers head off' and booing away young lads. I think it's a terrible way to treat young kids by booing them

That really sucks. The am shows I go to in NZ are very supportive, as they should be. Of course the carpark is a different story

That was a good fight !!

Needham landed the better punches by far,but the Polish chap kept trying to push his punches out.

Needham 3-1 for me.

what a fight, really enjoyed it. close

38-38 ... a draw.

a draw! the refs are super fair here, no home decisions at all

disagree completely that needham won that, prostko won that for me. way more active and never really hurt or overly bothered by those rare ambushes from needham. a lot of shots caught on gloves. prostko kept pecking away and didnt just have a rush now and then like needham

Someone knew the script. But onwards to next week for Prostko.

Effing hell a draw. Good to see the journeyman didn't get ripped off. But I think he could have beaten Needham, the last round for me was a bit of a script round, don't beat Needham if you want more fights at this level.

no prostko won clearly for me

I can't begrudge the Polish guy a draw, even if I didn't agree.

Needham paid a heavy price for not using his jab.

certainly cant begrudge him a draw when he deserved a W!

needham did next to nothing most of the time, got a bit desperate and opened up at the end, though still missing and getting pecked at in return

Eff me RJJ in da house

Needham landed pretty much all of the quality punches. Prostko tried hard & worked hard, but very little quality in the punches.

ya really big shots from the guy with 0 stoppages who didnt hurt his opponent once. he swung wider but landed little of note and outlanded significantly overall

anyway....onto next one
