Whoa! Overload, just got back to the show.

WHAT a nights boxing.

Here is a rundown of the results, in reverse order-

Bell V Al Hamidi close, with Al H catching him with good face shots, and finishing 58-56 to Bell. I had Al H winning.

Lyons V New guy (sorry, can't recall his name)- 40-36, decent little fight, result seems fair.

Liam Smith v Mcally (?) 40-36, Smith looking sharp.

Paul Smith V Tunisian- very limited opponent, really- two genuine knockdowns in round 2 followed by what look like a slip, ref started a count then stopped it on three knockdown rule. Great finishing shots from Paul.

Vassel V Corcoran- Exactly the sort of matchmaking that should ebon undercards- Vaseel dominated, caught him with a good shot round 6 and the ref stopped it after a flurry.

Crolla V Carl Allen- Pointless fight. Crolla soon to fight for a British title gets a bit of 60-54 sparring, Allen fight 101 and a cheque.

Tobias V Mendy- decent opener- started BANG ON 5-30, so virtually no-one saw the start, 39-38 I think.

But yeah, add the four other fights on the bill, a great night's boxing.

Exactly what i was looking for - excellent thread

How did Liam Smith look?

Sharp. His opponet was game, too- I think something like 4-4 now, so not a journeyman/pushover.

Smith looked stronger and fitter, too.

Nice one fella. Really excited abar this kid as much as his brother Swifty!

didnt see this fight myself but spoke to alot of people who did and they all seemed to say that vassell v corcoran was very evenly matched until corcoran ran out of gas, possibly a bit of an early stoppage to, did anyone else see it? and what were your takings on the fight?

Hard to say for sure from where I was sitting, but I had Vassell up by a few rounds, although yeah, Corcoran did look decent too and was certainly giving a good fight up until the stoppage- which was a bit of a surprise.

Vassell caught him flush, and Corcoran went back onto the ropes, Vassell threw a flurry and it was over. Hard to say if it was early.

Is there any footage of this around?
