I don't have Sky!

Round 8 - Norton generally outboxing Steeds whose not putting up a bad effort.... Norton had Steeds down in the 6th.

Norton is probably up by 5 or 6 IMO - far from a good fight... I'll do a round by round from the 9th.

You aint missing anything its shit, Norton ahead by 5 rounds now round 8, this is why i came on the computer im bored :!:

Garbage I cant watch any more

Round 9 - Norton on the back foot beating Steads to the punch who was a glorified punch bag just stalking...... Easy Norton round 10-9.

Hate this new between round betting the Sky are opperating for the "normal" fights now.

Round 10 - Norton giving Steeds a lesson... if he was more aggressive I think he could stop him. Steeds doing nothing and is looking tired and worn out.

10-9 Norton.

Steeds corner- Dont aim for his head aim for his shoulder

Only still got it on to watch Paul Truscott.

Round 11 as Round 10.

Thanks people... what a disappointment....I had some money on Steeds

Round 12 as 9,10,11.

Norton should have picked it up and KO'd Steeds. I don't know what was the matter with Steeds - first 3 rounds I thought the younger Steeds was going to get to Norton - he started okay, losing but pressing well and catching Norton occasionally. I don't know if it was fitness, desire or what - but he just then went to fight as he did vs Gammer - glorified punch bag... really dissapointing, and I was dissapointed with Norton's attitude.

Norton wins a wide UD - as expected.

Steeds was 14 stone and to be honest - looks like he can make Light Heavy.

Steeds just didn't want to win after the first couple of rounds. The corner wasn't exactly Mr Motivators. Sure the trainer told him to target the shoulder????

Yeah I heard them say it as well. Norton was ducking under Steeds hooks all night long, thats probably why they told him to aim lower

One didnt want to Fight and the other Didnt know How

It was the wrost British Title fight iv watched in ages....

I think this always had great potential to be a stinker. Pleased that Norton did well though, being a Midlands man

I know one person who can bring the zing back into the cruisers !!

Lets see what Terry has left first 'Loopylou'. 8 years is a longtime out of the ring.
I know he's been a sparring partner lately , and must of got himself into decent shape, but getting back into the ring for real is the test.

If he's retained 70% of his former skills , then he can make a mark on the domestic scene. Have to wait and see

I agree, but based on what I saw last night I think Dunstan will be just fine...but your right lets wait and see...

It was a really boring night's boxing. I was hoping they'd show David Dolan's fight.

I DG actually watched Little Britain instead.

Was a poor fight that DG was not prepared to watch.

Also, DG believes that people who refer to themselves in the 3rd person take themselves way too seriously and in no way does DG condone 3rd person usage.

There has been some stinkers recently - Barnes vs Bami, Barnes vs Morrison. Brook vs Jones wasn't the greatest either (nothing wrong with Brooks performance).

the best ones around are Dolan and Krence...maybe Bellew in a couple of yrs

Maybe Herbie Hide want to get back into the British scene as well
