    That’s very very surprising. Looked to me like Jennings was coasting at one point and Rivas was knackered, looked comfortable.

    Yeah and earlier in the build-up they were joking that he already thought it was some kind of cursed luck genius loci for him.

    What an awesome speech, he probably thought about it before hand too.

    Made my own separate thought at the same time you were responding to me - I know what you are saying was tongue and cheek, that wasn't an easy fight to score - at least for me.

    I have Rivas the 10th and 11th, and I think a case could be made that he split the first six. So, had Jennings made it to the final bell, a narrow Rivas victory would still have been reasonable, at least on my card.

    :facepalm: Wish I'd stuck to my original plan of watching that instead of Boo Boo vs Akavov

    Rivas is gonna rest dirty at some point if he hasn’t yet. His chest is part body builder, part menopausal woman.

    Stevenson is improving. He still has a lot to prove but appears to be making pretty quick progress, which is a good sign.

    No...It was probably on the moment its even better. Ramsey had a very hard life before becoming boxing coach and finding redemption so IMO he has that kind of fire in him to motivate his fighters with the key words to turn around their lives with performances like that. A bit like he did himself.

    What life did he have before becoming a coach?
