Exciting flares by Eubank although a lot of shots are blocked and do not seem to faze Morrison a lot...

So as far as things go in women’s boxing, what is the likelihood that Katie Taylor will step up in weight to tackle the other top level beasts? I was a tad disappointed to discover that she’s languishing somewhat in a lighter division than the other marque names out there.

If Eubank is looking for rounds, maybe he shouldn’t risk going the full ten as I wouldn’t trust the judges not to fornicate it up.

78 - 74 Eubank. He should have ended it already.

I'm not sure what the idea of this is anymore. Eubank wanted rounds? He's got them, but they are not competitive so it's not improving his fitness.. What's the point?

I take it back about MM, no quit in this dog. Tagged Eubank nicely then as the poor man’s RJJ came unstuck

She's too small for Shields and Marshall and knows it.

Awful stuff. Eubank Jnr stinking the place out against an inferior fighter, just dragging it out. What's the idea?

She isn't that big for a lightweight, most of her opponents are taller or around the same height and reach.

And she’s already beaten the lass that toppled Cecilia. It’s looking like a bit of a cruise to greatness.

But Jonas must be bringing her A game tonight, let’s see.

Why doesn't Eubank do like he has done years ago: avoid GGG and also, shut up for his own good?

Hopefully 31 year old Eubank will move up to British level soon.

Kilburn my man ! Long time !

Trouble is with combat sports - if you step up a weight class or two and fall short, very few actually acknowledge the huge disadvantage you were at and in years to come when people look at your record they won’t remember the circumstances of the loss. So it’s high reputational risk.

The premier names in women’s boxing are too big for Katie .. Marshall / Shields etc

I think a lot of the modern era male weight jumpers either started off brutally cutting unsafe amounts of weight or got on the PEDs to move up the divisions ( or both ) .
