    Amazes me in a sport like this that trainers, pundits don't know the rules off by heart. If Ref's wrong he's got a lot to answer for.

    Sexton was winning the fight but he was fighting his usual cautious fight.

    Olubamiwo was absolutely dreadful. Possibly the worst footwork I have seen in a boxer and lunging his punches everywhere. I would be ashamed to be in a ring if I was him.

    Anyone know what round the fight was stopped in? Boxrec says 6 but I saw 5 elsewhere.

    Good to see Rosenthal criticise the board as they wont speak to BN. He's much better than Richard "what is boxing" Keys

    Not sure about the rules here but I thought it would be the same as around the world, any cut from an accidental headbutt after 4 rounds and it goes to the cards.

    Because the real "War Machine" is a proper knobhead

    Larry has a chance if he can get his shots off early but his footwork, lack of coordination make it difficult to land the big shots consistently, therefore you would still have to strongly favour a more aggressive and adventurous Sam Sexton.
