Yeah.
I always thought Willy was over-hyped rubbish, but going distance with Buatsi and now this - he's pretty good and coming in to his prime.
Could yet be somthing..

he is and I liked him thanking his original trainer who he left and came back to. He did a good interview with Matt Christie very recently too and was very honest. He is the very best side of travelling people.

Louie OD is beating The Shark to a pulp - not even close..
30-27

Glackin getting beaten up badly, for only 2 stoppages O’Doherty looks strong as an ox in there

Would love to see O’Doherty v Vuong

x2
Looked powerful.
Obviously coming in to his prime and also, likely needs the longer fights to get his stoppages.
Relentless and accurate.

Brilliant engine and a fantastic win.

Great match up and we know Vuong ain't a fan of continuous pressure.

Good call - could be a great chief support to a big fight or small main event for the hardcore.

You'd imagine Vuong's people would want to wait (let it marinate ) for a fight or two tho'.

Gutted for Glackin but I've gotta say O'Doherty was brilliant, his work rate is phenomenal, you could see both guys intended to start fast but it got too much quick for Glackin as O'Doherty just pressed him, jabbed his way in and put it on him, was catching Glackin repeatedly with the overhand rights, Glackin looked as if he was getting stopped but he hung around, tough tried to get something going but anytime he did O'Doherty came back with something better, O'Doherty obviously not a puncher but it doesn't matter, he's on you, good call by the corner to throw the towel in the 10th no point seeing Glackin going 2 more rounds, O'Doherty wasn't slowing

Ben Davison has had a child with Hosea Burton !

Carrigan was way too excited in there. He can look a lot better than that.

Absolutely,I don't think they wouldn't fancy it.

Good knowledge as always Mick, but that was a bloody good debut !
Nothing wrong with being a bit greedy @ this level - top entertainer and got hisself noticed.

Nice stoppage there

Brown nailed Kean seconds in with a right and it hurt him, you could see Brown was much bigger and his shots were carrying weight, Kean tried to exchange, bad idea and he paid the price

Is main event next?

Yes it is.

Collins took enough of an early lead 116-113 for me, but you never know.

Lorente had mad fitness and heart and I wouldn't moan if he nicked it.
Home advantage and the 3-0 lead should give us a close UD imo.
Let's see....

A draw !

Fair enough - Lorente came on strong late.
Great fight, great card.

Not a great performance from Collins, found it hard to control distance from the marauding Lorente.

Can't really complaint at a draw and Collins doesn't have the power to trouble the top guys.

115-113 Collins, ended up a tough battle, hard to score in the second half,, Collins looked really sharp early darting in and out and popping Lorente with that southpaw left, he was busy, that 6th round was incredible both guys windmilling away, great action, after that Collins lost his zip and Lorente was having success, close rounds hard to judge, Lorente was better than before and Collins was worse but still they were both landing and missing plenty, shout out to both men's chins, they stood up well, Lorente is nails btw, I thought Collins won still, a draw not the worst I've seen

Faded down the stretch, the championship rounds make the difference

Got to say, so good to see competitive fights.
Good card

Don't mind that draw. Expected the European judges to see things differently than the DAZN team, who are there to champion Collins, let's be honest. Saying they all had him winning is no endorsement now that everything is in-house. A lot of close rounds as it went past four IMO.
