I haven't seen to much of Riakporhe in the past but he had so low output and didn't really do much at all, no sense of urgency either just constant hugging.. CBS dominated the fight and won quite easily on work rate. Fight was a bit meh!

Wasn't a great fight but, at least, the right man won.

Would love to see CBS-Opetaia. I think Jay would slaughter him, but Chris keeps finding a way to prove me wrong.

Yep. He’s slick and awkward as they get but he’s not winning a world title as a pro. Mean that with respect he’s a great prospect but I have a bad feeling about him. I’d be so happy to be proven wrong

Glad you agree, I’m watching on mute and have had to double check the card has started. So we have a thread or should we just post here?

I can’t get over Billam-Smith been 2-1 at the bookies just to win the fight. I found it hard to split them & went for CBS on points but I had to back him at then odds. They made no sense at all.

ya the poll here too before the fight was like 75 percent rich too

nothing wrong with picking RR , certainly good arguments for it, just surprised it was so lopsided with betting and voting. the first fight was basically even (decided by a very questionable kd call) and smith was the champ + had the better run since then, including overcoming a better opponent in okolie

think there was an overreacction to cbs losing rounds vs masternak. he's the type who fights to the level though.

I thought it was all pretty underwhelming, none of the fights really caught fire and I guess the cold added to the lack of atmosphere.
Couldn't believe what Riakporhe's game plan was apart from doing an Okolie impression, another one of Boxxer's big name is a dud.
