Love it !

R2 and 3 "what you like" ?

Kev's jab and neat backfoot boxing, or El Terrible's menace and thudding body shots...

It's all on the 4th...

My Mate Nate the better boxer and won the first two, Nunes ground him down a bit @ the end.

Nunes deserved at least a round for his bodyshots, but who cares..?

We also know that it was way more competitive than a lot of fights these days on proper boxing cards and particularly small hall shows

In this weeks boxing news someone wrote in about how at a show in Wolverhampton the home fighters had lost none and the away fighters had lost 358, then he went on to name two other shows where home side had lost none, and on one of the other 2 the away side had lost 201 and then the 3rd 156, so over the course of 3 fight nights you've got a combined loss of 715 for opponents ,that's bulls**t match making

The quality of this boxing is bad but the fights are more competitive in a way than a lot of other fights, got to say that at least

I read that article too. I do have some sympathy with building a fighter. Joe Hayden for instance, went 11 and 0 last week but no am experience, fight against MJ Hall was really good. You have to start somewhere.

100% you have to start somewhere, and throwing someone to the wolves is no good for all involved

But even still, poor matchmaking goes on too much in my opinion, which is a shame. I can see from an entry level point of view how someone new to the sport would prefer this misfits stuff, over some of the knock over jobs and serve ups that get presented to us in the pros
