First fight..

Given round 1 to Barrett.

Close 2nd round. Could have went either way. Given it to Barrett for being busier.

Given the 3rd to Barrett for the same reasons as the 2nd round.

Very close in the end. Barrett looked tidier but will worry about him as he tires later on in the tournie.

*Barrett UD 29-28 x3*

Barrett looks good.

Whats happend to Ralph Gammer, Paul Boyce (his old promoter) is working Gammers corner.

Stu, can you merge my thread into yours?

Hey keep me posted with how its going.... i dont have SKY and BBC radio are not covering it

Cheers Gammer! Thats 3 whole quid down the swanny!

Barrett won it on workrate, punches thrown...it doesn't matter that the majority missed or hit Gammer's gloves, Gammer didn't seem willing to press it despite being much bigger and stonger.

Coleman Barrett (Ireland) upsets Scott Gammer (Wales) in the opening quarter final bout. 29-28 on all 3 scorecards. Not a lot of quality work. Gammer seemed to be looking for the big shot and wasn't throwing enough. Barrett was moving about and looked busier. He looks a little small for a heavyweight but fitter than most guys on the show which may benefit him in this format. Was 25/1 earlier in the day but apparently his odds fell to 10/1 before the broadcast, so a lot of late money has gone on the Irishman.

Think Barrett will be two quick in his semi final. Size of Harrison will be a problem.

Danny looks in shape here!

Danny has been training for The Fridge but obviously staying away from it :P

BOOM!

WILLIAMS DOWN!

Danny down and hurt in the first few seconds.

Williams has lost this. Down for the second time.

Danny retire now... your losing to a guy fatter than you!!!

First Round - Williams downed twice and looks gone. Needs the knockout.

OMG danny williams! His legs are gone, needs the ko, and i doubt it he will. Come on aud!

Danny has bad footwear.. he slips... it should have been a kd as punches caused it... but not scored.

Giving the 2nd round to Baker. Very scrappy but Baker got the better digs in.

Baker could be going here...

Bakers gone... 2 mins left.

Wish i was watching this..... am surprised about what ive heard on Danny so far!

I think Audleys now my tip!

Baker has surely got the decision... Williams might be given the 3rd 10-8 though.

brilliant last round. Both men look very tired. Baker just about stayed up. Baker victory!

Baker has won this.. managed to hang on.

British heavies are in BAD shape, wobble wobble.

*Baker UD*

British champ Danny Williams came in better shape than he has done in a lot of fights but it didn't help him against Carl Baker in the opening round as he was floored almost immediately, and then he was knocked down a second time. Managed to survive the round by holding on for dear life against a huge tournament outsider.

Round 2, Williams was knocked down again but the ref ruled it a slip despite a punch connecting. Williams goes into the 3rd desperately needing a KO to win.

Round 3, Williams comes out like a train and looks to steam roll Baker. He pounds Baker to the body and then BOOM! nails Baker with a right hand and Baker is doing a chicken dance. Williams beats Baker all around the ring for the whole round but can't put him down with Baker doing everything he could to survive.

Baker takes it by UD to make it 2 upsets in a row. If this was a full length fight the result might have been different. It was a mini war with the only one benefiting probably being Coleman Barett who is now looking like good money.
