Barros was discombobulated in round 4.

It's all Selby 5-0 but he's the one who gets cut.

Does it seem the cut has taken Selby out of his stride a bit.
He seems concerned about it and doesn't look as at ease

Selby definitely finding it harder in the sixth. Barros seems energised by the cut. 6-0, but 6th actually close.

The cut has both, harmed Selby's confidence and boosted Barros'

Barros nicked that 7th with the early pressure

But Selby settled into it again at the end and showed the blue print for the last 5. Keep moving, use his range and be cute

Give Selby 8th but he's working a lot harder for it then he was in rounds 1 to 5. This is Barros territory.

9th Selby's best round since r5. Has he got his second wind? It's still harder than it was rounds 1 to 5 but he's dominating again.

impressed with Selby in the 10th. He knows he's not going to get Barros out of there so he just did enough to win the round without exhausting himself. Fair play to him. 9-1 Selby.

10- 1 Selby

Solid performance.

I was worried he might not have his mind on this both with bigger fights on the horison and the loss of his mother

But he's had a good night, not done a great deal wrong

Great finish, good punch for the knockdown

119 - 108

And I would understand the judges giving it 120 107

Given how round 12 went, he probably could have gotten him out had he turne dit up a round earlier. Dominant win though.

Say what you like about Selby's lack of ko power but that was a world class performance.

A world class opponent against a sub-world class opponent

but credit to him, you need to keep the mind on the job and he still produced and performed

Not sure it's a lack of power as such, more his style of hit-and-move.

Yeh, Barros really wanted that title, he gave everything, a little passed his best but always dangerous.
