Expected. The ref from Doncaster too. Ceja had to win by ko.

Ceja lost, it doesn't matter where he was from.

Brilliant news well done Jamie!! Hope someone puts a video up at some point - sounds like it was a cracker.

It was refereed fairly, no complaints there.

Top bloke so down to earth a typical Yorkshireman!

seems a really nice fella aswell! Ceja deserves credit aswell though as it takes two to make a good fight like that. Ceja can come back aswell. He shouldnt be too disheartened.

Well done O'Donnell. Glad I was wrong about Ceja.

One judge didn't think so.

I personally think scores between 116-113 and a draw are all acceptable. What does everyone else think? Anyone think Ceja nicked it?

He had a draw. Did you watch the fight? How did you score it, look at the scores on this thread. Nobody had it for Ceja,

You say that but that isnt always the case!

115-113 McDonnell.

The commentary team was kissing his ass though.

"Masterful" "Superstar" "We saw it alone the lines of the 118-110 card"

I gave first round draw 10-10, and 2., 10. and 11. round to Ceja and others to McD. In total 117-112.

Tough fight that was a cracker but Jamie won easy enough there was no Robberies cracking fight but take a bow jay mac underdog yet again and proves everyone wrong you will get the credit and support you deserve one day

great news. really glad that both mcdonnell and burns - 2 very consistent, fit guys who can do the 12 rounds - won world title bouts on the same night.

mares used to hold this title and he was winning very hard fought battles, like jamie won.

was a fan of mcdonnell ever since his outstanding battle with stuart hall.

anyone record it, in full screen dvd?

Any links for the fight?

Interesting that the daily mail think it was a controversial win!! It sounded close but a deserved win for McDonnell!!

if youd of told me the same kid whod lost to chris edwards/lee haskins would be a world champion 6 years later id of laughed.....full respect to jamie mcdonnell

McDonnell wins it tho, absolutely delighted.

Great win.....but 118-110 was a bit embarrassing wasn't it....which judge was that, not from the UK was he, by any chance?

It was a very good bout; fast paced and both had lots of skil and showed great fitness and heart. Ceja seemed a little slower than I imagine he'd be and Jamie is a tough man, when he's hit hard he just throws back in bunches. It was a mistake that Howard Foster was ref though he was very fair to both; Ceja came thousands of miles acros the world for his shot and got a ref who lives maybe 3 miles as the crow flies from Jamies' home; though it hd no bearing at all on the bout it loos ddgy as if the bout was loaded/stacked in Jamies way unfairly.

Jamie's performance impressed me. He showed skill and most importantly the heart needed!
