    Personally, I get flashbacks to boxing events during the corona period.

    Matchroom probably gets paid well, but it feels a bit flat to watch a boxing event from Monaco.

    Cordina against a light punching featherweight, an irresistible pairing!

    Not really looking forward to the main event too much. Vazquez is very good and got robbed against Ray Ford but is a natural featherweight. Cordina looks tight at the weight and I reckon he has one big fight at 130 next year before moving up to 135. I wish he took the Barrett fight instead.

    Excited for Guzman vs Ali II. I’m surprised Ali is the underdog even though she got stopped in their first fight. I have Ali winning on points.

    Had no idea she got KTFO until your post.

    It's a crap fight made to make Cordina look good with minimal risk of him getting sparked out.

    Basically
    It's basically the story of our country's history from the Roman occupation until the Current English occupation and "Yma o hydd" is letting everyone know we're " still here fighting " :thumbsup:

    This aged well.

    You and the 6 people who liked your comment must be eating humble pie. This was a fantastic card - first two fights were competitive, an upset KO in a world title fight, and then Joe Cordina in a great world title fight that could have gone either way.

    I can’t think of a better card this year to be honest as no fights were boring.

    I’m going to have a day sesh and watch this card now, Cordina is brilliant always good to watch. Monaco is a strange place to have held the card, it’s crap there, absolutely nothing to do. I went there with work a couple of years back, we stayed about 2 hours then headed to Nice instead, it was great there.

    Turned out to be a good close fight, I agreed with the verdict to Cordina.

    Absolutely zero atmosphere at these Monte Carlo fight nights... you could hear a penny drop.
