Yes definitely. I had the same feeling as after Leicester won the cup. A bit of pure sporting joy.

Did anyone else get a strange feeling of satisfaction after watching this, a little feeling that boxing is still brilliant?
It's not "brilliant" often enough tho .

The last 3 fights I have seen on C5 have been the last two Dilmaghani fights plus this one I guess there have been others that I have missed that haven’t been as good but C5 have put tremendous fights on when I’ve seen them in the last couple of years

Eggington looks like he’s been in a car crash. And to think Jkitou probably landed less than half the punches he did.

Restored my faith in boxing. Even the mrs enjoyed it and she normally whinges non stop until the fight is over.
How hard is it to match two people evenly FFs.

And I hope Stevie McKenna can box better than that. He needs to get on his jobs or he’s getting ruined.

I would agree, he was very raw - telegraphing like crazy.

He actualy can hes had some great results as an amatuer where you have to box but as a pro hes bulldozed people and got used to it.So im hoping more matches like the other night will bring his good style from the ams back mixed with his pro agression

Wouldn't mind seeing Jkitou again either, he is nails, France not a hotbed of talented boxers but him and Charrat impressed this weekend
He looked bloody strong but as someone else said he'll be kicking himself he wasn't busier .
Sam's workrate was excellent .
