Sky commentary has been the best it has been for ages for this fight.No agenda's,No stupid hyped up voice.This is how it should be.

Russian fans certainly seem to get good value at many of their major shows. Plenty of competitive fights that aren't forgone conclusions - unlike the standard fare in the UK. If you're quick you can still wager £100 on BJ Saunders to win and earn yourself £3.

It was a great fight. Both would flatten Bellew aswell. Might aswell get flattened by Haye instead though for a lot of money.

The production looks really good aswell. You can see the Billionaire Ryabinsky clearly puts a lot of money into these events.

Shows why he is moving up for a bigger payday rather than mix it with these chaps. He can cash in on his 'world title' ( cough paper belt ) for years to come. Fair play

Ed Robinson,Smigga and Coldwell.Werent bad to be fair,i know Robinson doesnt really do commentary but that kind of worked for me because it wasnt constant talking for talkings sake.

No I agree. If the option is there, might as well take it.

I really liked the commentary tonight. Not in your face and no generic boxing soundbites that Adam Smith does to death.

Great fight too. Gassiev definitely isn't the next GGG as was being sprouted before the fight but he will be in a lot of exciting fights. He wouldn't have too much trouble in taking care of Bellew if they ever fought.

Can't believe Indongo starched Troyanovsky in under a minute,I thought he was just another one of these unbeaten Africans who used to come over here to challenge for the Commonwealth title,fair play thought that was a quality left hand, Troyanovsky was out of it


I had Gassiev/Lebedev a draw,it was an excellent fight,way and by far the best fight of the night,Lebedev WaS great at times,using the southpaw jab well against the taller Gassiev and he got home lovely left hands,the problem was they just seemed to bounce of Gassiev and he kept marching forward, and a few times he seemed to have Lebedev back pedalling when he landed,I liked the body shot too,not enough body shots thrown from the bigger guys for my liking,great fight though either man could've got it,pretty wide cards though IMO

That actually surprises me, I know both guys threw plenty but would've guessed Lebedev was the busier with Gassiev causing the more hurt

Gassiev was also very slow to start possibly giving the first 3 rounds away by throwing very little. He looks good coming forward throwing single shots but his defence isn't great.

Even at 37 That's one of the best performances I've seen from Lebedev I felt he deserved the win. Never thought of him as much of a boxer just a come forward plodder. Recovered well after being dropped I think Gassiev could have pushed for the stoppage. Rematch surely.

Had to leave before round 10 started but watched the last few this morning.

Brilliant fight had it 114-113 Gassiev gave Lebedev the last round but could have gone either way to be honest. I wouldn't mind a rematch.

Both fighters would bang Bellew out IMO.

Lefty has rightly mentioned before that lebedevs skills are a little underrated, I think basically because hes a.stocky come forward type
