This has been a very enjoyable tournament so far but every split decision has gone to the wrong fighter in my opinion. Hey ho... only Prizefighter not like it really matters.
Ward gets knocked down by a headbutt which was counted wrongly as a knockdown. But he was shaken and could have been stopped on that! Maxi Hughes is feather fisted so I thought for a second Ward was hiding some china!
Saying that Maxi Hughes is a bit of a nearly man, tidy boxer but little power he caused Scott Cardle a few headaches. Ward is a bit more of a straight forward fighter, very upright with a decent jab but his footwork is a bit suspect. I think he's a bit flat on his feet at times.
Two badly ruled knockdowns here, terrible for Ward who now needs to dramatically turn this fight with a KO of his own!
This entire night is like a bizarre boxing-philosophy thought-experiment: what happens when the unstoppable force of entertaining boxing meets the immovable object of terrible officiating.
