Melero enters the ring , to the song 'In the City' by The Jam.
Good song, odd choice for a Spanish guy.

Melero looks relaxed, and ready.

Thaxton enters to cheers from crowd, as you'd expect.
Looks very focused.

Not sure about Thaxtons eyes holding up

the announcer is a shyt head, what was with the NO LOSSES???

1st round, Thaxton the busier for the first couple of minutes, Melero starts to throw some back over the last minute. Thaxtons round 'just'

Pretty even first round, maybe advantage Thaxton.

On the bell it looked like Melero had a big cut above his right eye.

Melero cut, must of been a punch, right eye

Cut not bleeding.

Thaxtons second round. Melero not settled.

2nd round, more of the same, Thaxton doing more work, taking control of ring centre, Melero moving around just throwing occasional punches, Melero hangs his chin in the air when throwing a combination, Thaxton could take advantage of that.
Thaxtons round

WOW! Spectacular KO by Thaxton!

big up JONO..great shot!!

3rd round, Thaxton comes out southpaw, lands a couple of decent right hooks. Melero not throwing much back. into the last minute of the round Melero goes for an exchange and Thaxton lands a hell of a right hook, Melero out on the deck . Ref could count to 20 .

Thaxton Euro champ

Well pleased I got that one wrong - Still stuff in the tank! Nice one.

Melero was dissapointing tonight, i was expecting a bit more from him. Surprised that Romanov rated him so highly

Thaxtons round

i don't think my predictions are to wrong ,

I just wanted to tell Diaz Morelo to his face to eat it

Thaxton ripped into Khan after the fight .

Very please Thaxton won.

Still can't see a Thaxton v Khan fight happening, even though Khan needs Thaxton more than ever now.

I can't see it either, even though it sounds like that's the fight Thaxton wants to most. Khan wont go any where near Thaxton because he will lose.

Ha ha, shows what I know.

What a punch!!

khan doesnt deserve a shot.Good for thaxton hope he secures an eliminator and a few decent paydays

Couldnt happen to a nicer Kid
