Got it 114-114 but slightly different from comms, it landed up being a decent little scrap, pretty cagey first 6 rounds but Essomba was in control, winning off the back of that southpaw left hand l, timing Konki who looked passive, second half Konki found his confidence, started taking the fight to Essomba who quickly gassed, Konki walked him down and was putting shots together, hitting the body and out hustling him, good fight, good swing in the script, no qualms with Essomba getting it, too slow to get going from Konki

Shakiel Thompson up next

I like Spencer Oliver, sound bloke and a solid pundit but he's annoying the life out of me in comms

Far too enthusiastic for my liking.

Shakiel drops opponent in rd 1, can he survive 2

defo trying too hard, maybe being next to Adam Smith is inspiring this from him

[SeanBrennan]

that was an awful refereeing and corner work for Shakiel fight, horrible to watch. Poor fella in away corner. Ref should be banned

Rattled off every cliche in the book, he was a bit OTT, top man though is Spencer, maybe stick to punditry though

a brilliant night of boxing, perplexed that they have not showed Hayden tho

Hayden was first up on the card, streamed on the GBM YT channel from 6pm. Thomspon looked sensational there, against a normally durable opponent.

You're right about the clichés, can't recall which fight it was but he said 'cut no corners/leave no stone unturned' in the same sentence

[SeanBrennan]

Liam Cameron picks up another win at the end, 2nd comeback win, moves to 21 and 5 and looks fitter.

thought konki won that tbh, cant begrudge tommy a decision going his way in a fight like that though

is dalton smith more active in corners than any other fighter his level? 100 percent locked in for a full time training career after this isnt he

Essomba started well but seemed to fade

Konki came on strong.

reminds me of Glen Johnsen, he used to do corners when he was world champ
