Crolla does look like a shot fighter so good he's getting out after this.

I feel like I should give Urquiaga a share of something here. He's made every round competitive, he's made Ant work for everything and he's always firing something back.

I guess you could argue that Ant's up against an ambitious fighter here and that's the one thing Ant doesn't have anymore.

Crolla still got a good engine but looks heavy footed and too slow to get his shots off, doing a bit better than the early rounds but not really turning things around clearly

Hard to score clearly but I reckon AC must be a few rounds clear on the score cards.

i dont think mentally you can perpare for a final fight, i mean in the back of your mind are you wanting to get out un hurt , or to spark some one out, i mean must be tough, as boxing is such tough sport you can get killed if your not switched on

Crolla is shot to pieces but no chance he’s losing this on the cards in his farewell. No chance.

Ant finishes his career with the kind of exhaustive bruiser that he was famed for coming thru in his pomp.
