Round-By-Round - Anthony Joshua vs. Eric Molina - December 10th 2016

[darkstar81]

Haye and Briggs just kicked off

I hope the IFL boys are capturing all the shenanigans :)

[ewenhay]

Smith blatantly hit him when he was down there. Should have been a point deducted. Not that it will matter

[ThereByTheGrace]

Smith is very overrated!

[darkstar81]

Depends on who she's fighting and at what level no?

I just think it will be a tough sell. Co-main event for sure but Main? If it's PPV in particular, no.

Not that I expect many of us know how much women can earn at the top level in boxing but I'd imagine the money Sky and BT stump up for each regular show will comfortably cover it.

I will be suprised if womens boxing becomes as popular as womens UFC has tho.

Me too but it just needs exciting fighters who are good to watch. I don't know if there many out there but if Sky and BT start providing exposure maybe it can blow up.

This ones dragging, hopefully Chisora v Whyte will be better

My son a bit of a novice when it comes to live events, only been to a couple of big shows, so as soon as something happens my phone rings. 'Bruno in the arena' 'Klit just come in' 'Bellew has walked in ' Shannon and Haye kicking off, security dragging Briggs into the corner of the arena'

exciting fighters and/or very good looking ones, either will help...

That ones going the distance and has the potential to be a maul fest.

[jameswilson]

Oooof. F ucking brutal.

Hope he is ok. That's a chilling ko.

[ElJefe]

Fvck me. Blackledge out cold.

[MightyWarrior]

Well done ref, plays another blinder

[wesshaw1985]

handbags?

[Boxing Prospect]

Huge KO

[darkstar81]

I was literally about to write "knock him out already".... that was a big one

[lefty]

That ref should know better than allow to go on like it did.

[MightyWarrior]

The guy was taking a beating, ref had the chance to end it earlier, and he waits for the brutal end instead

can't fathom it really because he was involved in a tragic fight I think

[Deno1986]

Well done ref, plays another blinder

Easy blame the ref but it's his corner that should have pulled him after the 8th. Stupidity letting him carry on.

[crusader]

And thats after being badily hurt and dropped in his fight 3 weeks earlier...

[Neil Gee]

Jesus, what a frightening knockout.

[tony1234]

There was no point letting that continue and then he gets KO'd like that

[MightyWarrior]

Well done ref, plays another blinder

The ref is there to protect him from himself, and a stupid corner

[gilgamesh]

Given all the fatal or near fatal injuries fighters have suffered in England lately I'm amazed the referee didn't stop that fight sooner. The 8th seemed like the perfect time to stop it. Hopefully Blackledge is ok, and we're not reading another horrible story later on.

[Tangerine]

yes i agree with macklin,his corner should have pulled him out before it got to that

[Horse]

Fights like these need to be waved off far earlier when one fighter is dominating so clearly.

[ElJefe]

Now that he's conscious, any danger of a replay?
