    Crolla has took the last two rounds IMO. Tis could turn into a war in the last few rounds.

    Got to love Crolla. Gets caught and comes back with his best work of the fight. Makes me wonder if the Farrell fight really did affect him.

    Just cant believe Crolla has neglected the body. Derry is vulnerable downstairs. Derry can take shots to the face all night and soak them up.

    Golovkin's power really is scary, he didn't even land flush on a tough, tough Ishida and knocked him spark out

    I think Crolla is on the slide. He wasn't that great to start with, but he had a nice range of skills, a good jab and respectable power. But he's always been lacking those physical gifts that mark really good fighters out.

    It's like he just gets in a rut while fighting, like he can't adapt in the ring. He's got a tidy style, but he's clearly at his level and not getting better.

    Got Matthews two up, Crolla has the momentum though.

    Crolla's round again he's boxing brilliantly now. Maybe second wind?. The up jab, the overhand right and the hooks to body are taking it for him.

    Derry is fragile to the mid section, still got him ahead mind
