rd2 tommy mc close rd good fight apart from the holding

[gregregegg]

round 3 hard to score. Billium smith doing more, Mccarthy landed the better couple of shots.

[brilo33]

good rd3 smith started well tommy mcc came back well at the end i reckon 10 10

[gregregegg]

mcathy got hurt and from that point on became very very easy to hit. Even if he recovers well thats hurtss later on.

[maverick23]

Class 3rd and 4th rounds. Even for me after 4 but I can’t see it going the distance. McCarthy hurt a couple of times in the 4th.

[brilo33]

smith rd4 landed some big shots wobbled tommy mcc

[jameswilson]

Last second of the round both trade huge left hooks. I thought CBS won the trade but Andy ‘unbiased’ Lee thought McCarthy landed the better one.

Let’s see in this round.

[maverick23]

McCarthy looks really tired after 5. His punches are becoming more sloppy and he’s being tagged clean and outworked.

48-47 CBS

[brilo33]

closer rd 5 smith landed the heaveir shots tho mcc came back the later of the rd

[gregregegg]

that round might of even gone back to tommy. Close fight, btoher taking turns of being very tired.

[jameswilson]

Chriss billum smith is 31. Richard richapor is 32... Why have neither stepped up yet past euro levle.

CBS’s 16th fight tonight. And it’s his first defence of the European title. Given he isn’t an ex Olympian I hardly think that’s slow progress.

[brilo33]

rd6 close going 10 10, think smith is up by a couple, mcc looks gassed already so does smith its a war

[brilo33]

rd 7 tommy mcc ,mcc needs to let his hands go more , smiths boxing well tough fight

[maverick23]

67-66 CBS. Good fight. Some close rounds.

[NoScoutingReports]

CBS stoppage! Nice barrage to close the show there on a tired McCarthy.

[maverick23]

Good win for CBS. Really enjoyable fight.

[jameswilson]

Currys and ladies underwear in Canterbury are on CBS tonight then!

Been pro 5 years though. and was an amature for many years before that. his underactivity has been a problem i guess. wanna be 20 fights in after 5 years i think.

[brilo33]

rd8 great ko for smith, looked good strong took some big shots of tommy as well , i think a really good win for smith

[gregregegg]

Really really good accuracy finnishing him off there. great finnish.

[skanksta]

Think CBS is timing it just right tbh.

Richie Rack started very late and was out for legal reasons, so that explains him.

[jameswilson]

Good win for CBS. Really enjoyable fight.

Always thought this was a sleeper. Obviously below this the card ain’t great but ppvs aside I think this is as good a chief support or small main event as there is right now.

[brilo33]
