5-0 but Peker has frustrated Roberts a tad.

Looks pretty full to me, definitely was close to full for Murray and Simpson.
Cardle vs Applebee was the best fight of the day thus far. Murray vs Simpson was just a demolition. I don't know much of anything about Simpson, but I gather he's had some success in the UK in lower weight classes, he just looked completely physically outmatched by Murray.

This fight going on now, I lost interest in by the 3rd round.

I don't expect Burns vs Crawford will necessarily be riveting entertainment, but I'll still be watching because it's a pretty big fight. The toughest opponent for both fighters up to this point in their respective careers.

I don't know who they got Anthony Joshua in with tonight, some guy they said that went 9 with Chisora is all I remember them mentioning.

Yeah it's an argentinian guy. Basically a journeyman but obviously that's the norm at this stage. I imagine Joshua will take him out pretty quickly though.

Ya, I think he's clearly quite stiff. Obviously he's one to watch, but he hasn't really jumped out at me yet.

Not sure the dutchman will be much better to be honest, even though he has a pretty record :lol:

He looks to me like someone who started the sport late *which we know he did* and fights in a very robotic, very tight, gloves stuck to the head kind of way.

I like Degale now. Seems like a decent guy in all honesty and people who have met him in person say he's a nice guy.

Same here.

Just to be clear, are discussions on the Degale fight ok in this thread? I guess some people will be recording so probably not?
