Only a matter of time before this ends.

Enzo really shouldn't be in there. He can't see at all out of that eye.

Terrible corner work in the Enzo corner. Do they not have an endswell?

What a brave man, he's still throwing hard; his eye looks horrible.

This could be worse than lebedevs injury.

He's done, what a shame the eye went so early.

Braehmer is shite - one two then hold - dogshit - holding has become legal nowadays

The fight should of been called off in the first few rounds and it of been ruled a no contest.

Enzo can hold his head up high

Feel for Enzo there, gave Braehmer a few problems with one eye and landed some good shots, but he just couldn't see the punches coming.

He's good, he's fast and hits hard, he'll be hard to beat and has beaten some really good names am and pro.

Makes you wonder why Martin Ward wasn't give the same chance the other week?

He wouldnt beat Stevenson and Kovalev. I'm not sure he would of beaten Enzo with two eyes.

Damn shame, he looked decent in there, certainly putting in a decent performance given that he only had one eye and Braehmer was 1-2 then hold all night. Hard luck.

Anyone else notice that Enzo's chin held up well tonight aswell? It's a real shame.

Though I didn't say that; he is the 3rd (or 4th) best and Enzo didn't have to retire, he was in the fight alright.

(edit: I mean he ought to continue to box, not that he shouldn't have been pulled out tonight.)

Gutted for Enzo, even his other eye was going. Signs of a long hard career? An injury in training?

Enzo had some success with the eye closed. We'll never know. Doubt they'll be a rematch but Enzo can continue at domestic level if he still wants to fight on.

Gutted there for Enzo, it looked like it was going to be a really interesting fight and he certainly didn't look out of his depth. The injury was bad though, looks like a break and that will take a long time to heal and potentially a risk in the future now.

He didn't look out of his depth did he?

Na I know you didnt say that mate ... I was just saying myself I dont think he would. He's a good, solid fighter though and definietly one of the best in the division.

Hopefully they can try and make it again. Braehmer is not exactly overly keen when it comes to tough challenges and I cant see him calling out the big dogs of the division.

On retirement talk: If the eye heals then there's no need to retire, depends how the injury goes really. He certainly looks fitter and stronger these days than a couple of years ago, it'd be a shame to retire on that.
