This Big Joe fuacker though. He aint no Belgium. That said, I liked the guy and he gave some entertainment.

I went to Brugges for a few days years ago. It's as miserable as fukk! I've never encountered such a dour people in all my days. I've been to more upbeat funerals!

Terrific performance from Selby I gave him every round,done the 12 rounds at a canter at a decent pace as well,Norman tried but was just outclassed in every department, Andrew's footwork is a joy to watch,he takes the odd silly shot coming in but I don't know if that was because he knew Louis was offering little to trouble him,I look forward to seeing Selby at world level, which surely is only a matter of time

Louis Norman looks like a younger, smaller Mikkel Kessler

Why did you think that he'd give him a tough fight?

Christ knows in hindsight, I knew Morales hadnt beat or even fought anyone of note but I'd seen him a few times and thought his aggressive style had a chance of maybe breaking Haskins down,I was thinking of the Jamoye fight where Lee allowed himself to be dragged into s brawl and stopped

Total mismatch though and Morales offered next to nothing

Has got lovely footwork, but he needs to sit on his punches a bit more when he moves up in class. For a 5 fight novice though, he looks bloody good.

And that's how you beat him, don't fight his fight and don't let him dictate the pace and go for the boddy he has been ko'd by boddy punches and the last fight was when stuart was working full time not training full time.

Hall's lack of power will be a problem.

He took time to get started last fight against haskins but still got to haskins towards the end of the last fight, don't know where haskins reckons he gave stuart a boxing lesson as haskins isn't a skilled boxer, skilled boxer's have a guard and don't get hit or miss with the punches as much as haskins does.

Thought Haskins was poor last night got a bit fed up after the first few rounds. Shame as his fight with Iwasa was quality IMO with it being Bristol there was a good atmosphere too.

Personally would like him to go to Japan for Yamanaka which has been rumoured would mean the Hall mandatory would be put back if the unification gets done in a time frame.

Never saw the first Hall fight but there does seem to be a lot of animosity between them now so if the Yamanaka fight doesn't happen Im all for that. Can't see Stuey being in a bad fight TBH.

Haskins is hard work to watch, ugly style, and doesn't throw anywhere near enough shots. He's get murdered at some stage with that low guard of his, he doesn't really have the reflexes to pull it off. Fine against unambitious one dimensional fighters like Ivan Morales, but against better men he'll be made to pay for his poor defence and lack of workrate.

It's odd that some of Haskins's fights have been really exciting. Iwasa and Jamoye were two great fights.


I really hope he gets well paid for the Hall fight. With so many potential bidders in Sanigar Promotions, Hennessy, Cyclone and Matchroom this will surely be a tasty one.

God how could I forget the Jamoye fight literally one of the best I've seen !!

Selby has some of the best footwork I've ever seen live.

I thought Selby and Haskins and boxed near shutouts.

Need to mention Lee Selby he pretty much talked and had photos with everyone at the venue last night.
He even went for a walk about in the stand to give people photo opportunities. Absolute Class Act.

Personally thought that the nappa and the jamoye fights were brilliant.

Just watched this back, would have liked to have gone to the show as we don't get many pro shows in Cardiff but was unfortunately at a wedding. Really enjoyed the Kennedy fight, although thought he was pretty lucky to get the decision considering the 2 knockdowns. The Haskins fight was poor.

Yeah, Stuart Hall is a monster? Haskins will stop or KO Hall in 5 or 6 rounds.
