Got it 4-2 CBS

Riakporhe might have a cunning plan for the second half but he’s not been coming up with a lot of answers here so far.

Starting to get sloppy. Riakhpore's putting everything into every punch but they're not landing. CBS is still busier but leaving himself more open now.

I may be made silly if he gets a KO after I post this, but I haven't been impressed from Riakhporhe since I saw him fight Sam Hyde - Hyde boxed his head off until he got cut, made him look silly.

Anyone else looking for Madonna in the crowd?

Smith keeps offering up his left for Riak to latch. As much holding as punching.

One thing is for sure, Opetaia demolishes both of these. Briedis would too.

Riakhpore starting to land some big shots. CBS' gameplan seemed to be working until then

Riakhpore so frustrating to watch.

He is landing solidly for sure

CBS looks exhausted.

If RR steps it up he gets the stoppage

Has Madonna shagged Riakporhe out? One more round for a points win for CBS imo.

Can’t see Billam-Smith throwing this away from here. Riakporhe not looking to spritely himself.

CBS is outhustling Riakporhe.

Leading, for me.

CBS has utilised his potential, RR hasn't.

Beating Okolie, Masternak and Riakhpore over 12 months is quite an achievement for CBS.

A unification against Opetaia or Ramires next hopefully but could understand Mikaeljan.

117-110 CBS. Fought the fight on his terms. RR was a bit disappointing tbh but take nothing away from Billam Smith, he was much better than against Masternak.

Got a bit of Okalie about him

Great performance from CBS
Closing the distance after throwing himself was a great tactic and he carried it off to perfection.
A little disappointed in Riakporhe , but take nothing away from a great win .

hope some of yall bet cbs at those big odds

Riley was decent on comms btw

Well that was a scrappy fight. Well done Chris.

Gave Billam his dues.

Not a fan of CBS offering up for clinches after working his way in, but that's on Riakporhe for engaging in a negative fight.

118-109 Billam-Smith, boxed excellent in tough circumstances, ref was shocking, how it took 12 rounds to finally deduct a point of Riakporhe is abysmal, Riakporhe got away with murder, the holding alone should've cost him not to mention use of the head and low blows, Riakporhe had a good 1st snapped the head back of Billam-Smith with some crisp jabs, he neglected it thereafter though, spent rest of the fight tying Billam-Smith up, didn't want to fight him up close but Billam-Smith outworked him and got his shots off, the looping shots around the side, uppercuts and body shots as well, good variety and didn't get flustered as Riakporhe mauled him, , Riakporhe finally started landing power punches in the 9th looked like he was hurting Billam-Smith but CBS came back firing as he always does, his hearts as big as anyone's in the game, well deserved win they scores were too close imo, Billam-Smith boxed a really good fight and avenges his only loss
