    Crighton was winning the 10th there until then, probably cost him the fight.

    Still taking this at late notice. I don't see how Arthur goes any further with this style.

    Shades of Hughie Fury with punch output but his boots must be glued to the canvas

    Lyndon is sooooo boring

    On top of his boring as hell style he also EXCLUSIVELY fights bin men (excluding Yarde who he only fought because he had such a huge experience gap and so much to gain)

    Fight after fight, nobody after nobody, next opponent will be another over matched nobody

    Dunno how he has any fans

    Those cards were far too wide

    96-93 I thought was about right, the other two were definitely wide weren't they.

    He got fans after being Yarde because loads of people used to just hate on Yarde for no reason tbh, maybe because of Tunde.

    Then Arthur put on a really poor display in the rematch and since then Yarde’s valiant effort against Beterbiev has flipped it around and he’s now the fan favourite by a long way.

    I didn’t watch tonight but previously I enjoyed Arthur’s boxing, not the most eye catching style but his jab is awesome.

    I don't get how an anti fighter and a bully can have fans

    He's timid to engage and actively seems to avoid the fight, then on top of that he only fights against people he's sure he can beat, never challenges himself. So many good fights he can be in but he just picks on bin man after European bin man

    He’s doing himself no favours that’s for sure. I follow him on IG and he’s a bit of a weird character, always gets involved in petty beefs and livestream discussions with chavs alongside Sunny Edwards. I don’t think he has much self belief or motivation but that’s based purely on what I see online and from him in the ring.

    I mentioned ambition above but I think your right CutThroatFade, it's probably a lack of self belief, it's like you can see it with how he fights.

    Kane Gardner gets a 78-76 decision against Conah Walker. Apparently Walker was robbed.

    It's a real shame we couldn't see the undercard.

    That is the big problem. Arthur seems uninspired. It's like he doesn't care...
