Forrest won the 2nd fight imo, certainly wasn't one sided

That was a mesmerising performance from Taylor. If Taylor would have held on then that would go down as a supreme masterclass.
While Taylor was always in control on the scorecards(well 2 of them anyway, how one of them had Chavez ahead still bewilders me), the physical damage he took in that goes to show it was a highly competitive bout

Eubank didn't take a punch in the opening round of either fight, and Benn was going all-out.

I thought he won the first five very clearly and very easily against Watson.
I don't think anyone, until now, has ever described Eubank v Benn as a one sided performance
It wasn't a one-sided performance as such, but Eubank was often dominant in the fight and Benn wasn't.

I had him winning the second fight as well. To be honest, I didn't even think the first fight would be competitive, Forrest seemed to be a level above Mayorga going into that fight.
