It was a press training session just Steve. I only found out myself that it was definite about 1pm and rush over to the gym, seeing as I was off work with the missus being back in hospital again. If I'm have had more notice I'd have let you know mate but we weren't sure what gym they would use.

I have some more pics and video footage here that I will pop on a disc for you mate.

Nah Steve I think I still fancy Rogan (esp with the support) lol, was at the weigh in today with the both of them lol. Rogan seems confident and calm, cracking jokes and that, sexton just seemed to going though the motions at the weigh in and then he and his team headed down into the town for some grub. Have to say all of Sexton's team are lovely guys.

How much did they weigh-in at? How did they look?

Replied in other thread.

Had to have a punt on Sexton @ 5/1

I can make a case for them both but the value is definitely in backing Sexton at the above price.

Agreed. To be honest, I was strongly considering lumping on Rogan. But I rewatched parts of the Skelton fight and Rogan was HURT on several occasions in that fight. I was also reminded of how limited he is. Skelton looked awful trying to box and move and I expect Sexton to look a lot better than that. The worry is Sextons stamina, he has never been beyond 6 rounds. This will be a high intensity fight for 12 rounds. However, if his stamina is sound (he did WIN prizefighter), he has a real chance.

I will watch the first couple of rounds before having a bet in this one.

So tempted to back Sexton. Surely he's going to out-box Rogan, but can he out-last him?

I reckon this is a 55/45 fight in Rogan's favour and 5/1 for Sexton is too good.

*withdraws £10 from my betting account*

Had a couple of quid on Sexton points win at 9.4 on betfair. The market has now gone suspended tho was gona have another few quid on Sexton at 5.1 to win outright. Annoyinmg they have the start time scheduled for 8pm so the betting is no longer available. Duno if it will go in-play later on.

I've just had £10 on Rogan to win in Rounds 10 - 12 , 11/2 @ skybet.

Think Sexton may stuggle in the later rounds as he's never been passed 6 and Rogan will be all guns blazzing ( i hope ).

Good odds you got there and a decent lightlyhood of that happening but i wonder will sexton size tire rogan . Is sexton stronger than rogan i wonder?

Rogan has gone, the corner should pull him out.

Great heart and effort shown by these two warriors tonight.

Maybe not, that is one tough taxi driver!

What on earth did Rogan do in there?

He should have blown him away !

I feel for him.

How can they stop the fight when Sexton was out on his feet. Parris bought Sexton plenty of time as well and should have stopped it.

I was jumping up and down then hoping Rogan would stop him, even if it ment i lost my bet.

Bring on the rematch.

That is the most fustrating fight iv'e ever seen and i'm pissed off with it. Why on earth did'nt Rogan finsih Sexton, instead of stopping for Sexton's gumshield and then the ref stops it with seconds to go of that round. Boxing at it's worst and no way does Sexton deserve that victory. I can't stand that type of finish, involving injuries and the other guy gains from it, but what the fornicate was Rogan playing at. One thing is for sure, i knew Rogan was'nt a class fighter, but after seeing Sexton, he won't amount to very much either. He may have some decent skills, but he was blowing badly and in my opinion is very average.

Dont think you can blame the doctor but you are right on Parris, if a boxer turns his back its his own fault if he gets hit on the back on the head

That looked dodgy to me, what Parris did. He spent ages giving Sexton time after the supposed vackof the head punch and then intervened way to early, for the doctor to have a look at Rogan's eye. Shite from Parris, he should have left it to the end of the round.

I would have been nearly spot on. If not for that very strange finish.

Not a betting man Hagler

But it was so fustrating seeing that unfold the way it did. Rogan's unlucky injury, the way he stupidly stood off from Sexton and the amount of time that Parris gave Sexton and then stops it with 40 odd seconds remaining. Parris wants a right hander and so does Rogan for stopping his onslaught
