    When’s the next BT show I can’t listen to much more of this.

    Anything other than Shields by 7 or more is shite.

    Right decision. One of the judges was a bit misguided but the other two were fair.

    He's not. He told Savannah in build up to work her way in from outside. She never. It was nip and tuck overall. Shields win first 4 wide but Marshall won more of the last 6 rounds (though closer rounds.)

    Adam "The Hard Drive" Smith always calls for a rematch, it's a verbal tick he has on commentary

    It was a good fight, no need for the rematch. Sky Sports are trying to make out it was epic etc, half of Katie Taylor’s fights like against Persoon, Jonas and Serrano were more entertaining.

    Shields was a deserved winner.

    Women's boxing always favours the boxers. 3 minute rounds give the puncher more of a chance.

    Right result, glad to see a UD, as I'd question anything other than that. Can't see a point in the rematch, would be exactly the same.

    Marshall was brave and game, but was outclassed, and her power didn't translate to top level.

    Respect to Shields though, hell of a performance, way stronger than I expected, I think she is the real deal.

    its funny, you watch DAZN and think oh Adam Smith isn't that bad, then you listen to the crap he comes out with.

    Shields face looks like she's been run over. She is much better than I have seen her before.

    Pretty sure some of these fighters turn up for their big fights a lot more powerful. Seen shields a few times....usually a powder puncher but hitting twice as hard tonight. Mayweather v pacman springs to mind.

    Damage was done in the first four rounds tonight. Really went to work on marshall. Marshall should have took a step back when the maurauding wasnt working. Eased her way into it after a rocky first round.

    Think tbf to peter and savannah....theres a reason shields has won what shes won. The best coach in the world cant make up the kind of gap in experience and talent etc. Both put it all on the line tonight tbf to the two of them.
