Kelly’s face a bloody mess his nose looks broken

It’s gonna be close, although the judges might be siding with the match room fighter

Josh swept early rounds, but I’ve not really been scoring it

Adam Booth is a real odd ball

I gave up scoring it’s not an interesting fight. Like a poor Channel 5 main event.

I like it when Kelly has the bit between his teeth. Tight one this.

Carl now has Kelly one round up, but only because the rest of the commentary team were teasing him about bias

Adam probably made a worthwhile comment there, Agyarko will think he’s won this.

I suspect the respect may dissipate after the result is announced.

Obligatory 'There's the respect...'

Kelly should take this. Close but not really close enough.

That is a bad cut. The other guy is unmarked.

Boots Ennis won’t be worried at all based on that, but it will be a fun fight if they actually make it, which they won’t

115-112 Kelly as well, pissed the first 5 rounds, Agyarko wasn't putting enough punches together and Kelly just picked him off and made him miss, he even cut loose a few times, looked good doing it , he was dirty though Kelly, deserved the point off in the 6th for another punch behind the head, he done what he often does though and his low output dropped even lower and Agyarko started getting shots off and nicking rounds, was getting his lead left off, Kelly was cut, nose broke surely but he boxed well to the finish, landed the best shot of the fight in the last with that left hook

Close fight, but Kelly legit deserved the decision. I'll admit I missed good deal of the 2nd half, but I had Kelly winning everything after 5, I was surprised to see when I came back from an errand that Kelly was as busted up as he was, all the cuts seemed to motivate Agyarko, and he apparently came on pretty well on the 2nd half.

Good fight, tough fight, onto the next.

Kelly is a belt waiting to be grabbed for whichever of the big names at 154 comes to get it first. If I were his management I'd be looking to get him the winner of Spence vs Tszyu tonight.

Fundora or Ennis will kick his ass.

Kelly always fights the same, very fast, quick counters for the 1st 6 rounds.

He always tires and that is his biggest problem, as with fatigue, he loses some of his speed.

Fundora would eat him up, tbh. I'd avoid him like the plague.

If the money is right he should take that fight

The Spence/Tszyu winner is a big fight, and a winnable fight for him so I'd go with that one if at all possible, but otherwise than that I guess the move would be whichever is going to be the best moneymaker between Ennis and Fundora because as they were touching on any of the guys in the Top 10 could potentially beat him so you might as well take your shot against the best of the best for the most possible money.

This will end too quick

Then we’ll have to wait 40 mins for main event.
