Not a classic, I've got it 117-112 Ennis-Brown, fought his fight, a lot of missing and holding from both men but Maxwell probably the more guilty party, he had no interest in mixing it up on the inside and always held when up close, Ennis-Brown really herky jerky but quick and slippery, was able to land the lead left and stepped in with with jab, missed with tons as well, Maxwell was on front foot but couldn't get off, Ennis-Brown pot shotted his way down the stretch, Maxwell threw caution to the wind a bit after getting cut in the 9th but still couldn't land anything meaningful

Wow what a sh1t decision, they useless fckers have now signed us up for another 12 rounds of that

I’m really starting to like Frampton as a commentator, he can’t NOT speak his mind and sticks to his guns

Why are 'lions really camp'?

Yeah he's honest it's refreshing hopefully they don't turn him into a company man like most boxing pundits

Just like Hughie, AKEB can't moan if the judges don't like that.
He is an ATG at not getting hit, but this is "The Hurt Business".

I have to agree, altho I didn't score it. I fast forwarded a bit of it even. It was a shocker. Tbh this isn't amateur boxing that sort of style is a hard ask.

I suspect we get a rematch but it's very likely to be a similar fight.

Even after two defeats Tunde still seems unbearably cocky.

A guy who's 5 from 5 in KO defeats when losing facing - deadly puncher who's been working on "not waiting so much".
I will not be scoring this 1 or (hopefully) 2 round fight...

Theran looks fleshy.

Pointless bollox of a fight that does nothing for boxing's image.

Outstanding learning fight for Yarde, bring on Beterbiev

Embarrassingly poor opponent for Yarde and no doubt for Heaney coming up .
Shameful really !

4/1

Anyone else look at that and think it looks more than a bit dodgy.

I'm not sure how that got sanctioned, really counting on the main event to save this card now

Taking oxygen? Do me a favour.

Looks like a dive to me. Hope he got paid well.
Least Theran is following up with his bullshit dramatics by receiving oxygen.

They weren’t hard clean shots. The first one especially was a glancing blow. Fckin dreadful.

He's been stopped 5 outta 5 whenever he steps up - n Rs, 1,3,5 etc. and Yarde is the biggest puncher he's ever faced.

I really doubt he's faking it - those body shots sliced him in half.

It's like the final whistle or The Fat Lady at The Opera isn't it !

LMAO But imagine genuinely missing Adam Smith

Wtf you talking about

They were brutal body shots on a beefed up middleweight with a big flabby belly, there's no chance he was faking.

Well call me mystic Meg (APART from “no way!” Real talk Carl Frampton….)

I’m warming to the Spud lookalike

A certain untelevised fight is being reported as a draw by Boxrec

I actually like Carl as a commentator, I do find him a little hard to understand because I'm foreign. I wonder if they pay them by the kilo?
That would make Carl excellent value compared to say, Bellew
