    Not convinced Ward won that - a little watery fart that will meet the air freshener when he steps up

    I don't think Ward won that, surprised at the scores.

    Looking forward to this Selby fight, hopefully his head is in it. I believe he's the best at 126 and would beat Frampton, Quigg and LSC. Maybe GRJ would beat him but I really hope he gets the big fights after this he is a joy to watch.

    How much padding does Eubank use with his wraps?? Surley that kills his power?

    He wraps those fists to death. And yes, it's a big reason he doesn't stop people cold. By all accounts he is quite a spiteful puncher, somewhat nullified by the huge pads in 10oz fight gloves.

    It's because he has hyperextension problems with his elbows, he's talked about it before in interviews, so prefers to throw hooks and uppercuts rather than straight punches.

    the thing is he is dead at the weight....although he is probably better than them you mention the weight will kill him

    Another selby snooze fest. God he's awful to watch. Barros to small too old too slow....and still Selby can't stop him. Hopefully Barros will fluke one big shot and put us out of our misery.

    Selby was boxing beautifully in the first few rounds. When he boxes like that he is a joy to watch. Probably the most skillled British boxer.
