is cullen winning looks good in rd 7
I give Big Bad Vlad 2 of the middle rounds and Cullen everything else.
Needs to keep that chin down, jab more and be more careful of left hooks but overall a good comeback.
Lerrone Richards next and see what he’s got?
I think it’d be a big step back for Richards and I’d like him to have a more progressive fight.
Cullen has a few options. I wouldn’t mind seeing him rematch for the European or rematch Chelli.

is that whos next mr bumblebee, richards lack of power always leaves him vulnerable i mean he is slick and more than capable of the win , but i reckon cullen will fancy that as well also cullen is fighting at a higher level

Baumgardner’s a good fighter but having her fight here against an opponent who’s at least one level below her in a fight where the crowd doesn’t really care who wins completely takes the energy out of the show.

Agree fella. Would prefer smaller cards with more competetive fights than these long ones where most fights are so one sided

Was a decent atmosphere in here after the Cullen fight and that’s just been extinguished by the girls’ fight.
Hatton next should bring it back up.

I didn’t mind the Cullen fight but they need to be careful with the womens fights. They either need to be properly competitive or involve a fighter the crowd can get behind. Otherwise, don’t put it on the main card.

Carl Froch came out to ‘what’s the story’ when he fought George Groves first time around. That was a sick walkout that night to be fair.

hatton jr i think he needs just to slow it down a bit from his last fights dont waste energy throwing wild shots

Hatton is really open when he’s throwing body shots. Needs to relax more and pick his shots like he did in his last fight.

Hatton no power but fights aggressive and is wide open, developing into a pretty fun fighter

hatton getting caught with some bigish shots needs to keep the hands up, still looks a little wild close rd 2

He said he’ll get to his dads level..
Eventually…
I don’t think he’ll amount to half of it.

Maybe he means his dad’s level in 2022. Even that is a stretch.

Because he has an extremely punchable coupon.
