This is what makes me mad… not that judges get it wrong, but how predictably they get it wrong in the A-sides favor.
Imagine if we all thought Fisher edged it by a couple of rounds, and the result went to Allen. I cannot recall a single instance where this has happened and the B-side won it

I think I have seen it once or twice. But I have the reverse 1000 or 2000 times…

I've remembered how much I don't like Adam Smith on comms. Lovely guy, totally biased commentator.

Thoroughly dislike him. Sells the home boxer more than he sells the fight or tells us what's happening. He's clearly a marketer first, commentator second.

Tonight he's cheering every single shot Davis lands. Was the same for McGrail's opponent. Reg Gutteridge could do better than this and he's been dead for 15 years.

Fisher either rematches Allen, or he gets a can fest until he can't sell tickets anymore, then fed to an up and coming lion.
Eddie's heavyweight stable is looking a bit shabby now.

Conor Benn can't feel comfortable watching that. He really rates Davis after spars.

Bohachuk is horrible to fight. Doesn't matter what you do, he keeps coming. Throws punches that look like nothing, but is a bit of a beast. First time I've seen him live, very impressed.

Both Eddie's fighters yeah?

McGrail wasn't a robbery but this one was really was bad, as bad as I've seen, cost Allen a retirement payday.
He'll get the rematch surely? In the UK.
Won't get notice though, a decent pay offer at 2 days notice while he is on holiday in a couple of years time.

Also Turki won't have much interest either.

The Itouma-McKean fight is going to be completely one sided in Moses' favour. It's not going to be close at all.

At best, McKean will try and make it ugly.

I think it's at Golden Team. They do all sorts. Justin Newell is his trainer.
