Think Figueroa will struggle at LWW, he's just too small and doesn't do anything special, he wont be able to push back 140lbers like he's doing to Estrada.

Great finish from Figueroa, bit of a shambles with the break going on for 2 minutes at least and the ref not realising the cut came from a clash of heads.

It is interesting , about 3 or so seconds before the stoppage came I was shouting 'stop the fight ref, come on' which obviously means the stoppage was pretty spot on in my opinion. Such a shame I very rarely say this with fights over here.

Jesus Christ talk about an untidy start to Bika v Dirrell.

Its not getting much better either, if I was pushed I'd say 2-0 Dirrell.

Bika is a hideous boxer, a pure caveman - hope Dirrell can get the belt off him even though he's nit performing much better but it's so hard when faced with this mauler

Highlight was seeing Albert Clifford Slater sat next to oscar.
Current working through several saved by the bell wiki articles.
Better than this shite.
Rocky Fielding could go 12 rounds with these losers.

Dirrell is doing much of the holding.

I was going to say I certainly don't expect to see Anthony Dirrell in many 'easy on't eye' fights.

George Groves must be watching this with a massive smile on his face - he would stand both of these patsys on their heads

Can someone please do a RbR for the Brook fight?

Mine's OK...wishing it would go off though, this is appalling.
If ever there was an example of there being too many world champions and too many world championship belts...because it's laughable to think this is for a 'world title'.

The ref is getting involved too much. I don't think it would be so bad if he let them fight through things more.

Not sure about that.
Would you have Dirrell favourite over Groves?
