    Arum is right in that the score card was bad but he can not refute the right man won.

    Josh Taylor having a competitive fight with Catterall means one thing to me - retire

    Cleaner clearer punches were from Jack.
    He's was also good at cramping Joshs punching ranges.
    Josh fought well but was a bit tense.
    Jack by 3 rds.
    I'd watch a trilogy but Joshs best days are behind him and can't see Jack getting any world honours. Good scrap from two good Brits tho.

    He's just old as **** mate. I saw him 2 weeks back, practically falling asleep on the stage. Needed assistance to walk around. Short too looks like an old Ewok.

    Bob Arum was spot on. The cards were total bull****. A definite hometown scoring. 117-111 was absolutely disgusting.

    I was surprised at how humble Taylor was in that interview

    Yeah I'm wondering if Bob is getting a little senile. He's right about the scorecards though

    I dont think there is a need for a 3rd. Catterall won twice, despite the judging, and Taylor is rapidly declining. Catterall needs to take a chance against Matais (I think he loses) or move up to 147

    When you're 92 you have a life expectancy of about 2 years. I think at that point a lot of people are like **** it, I say whatever I say.

    Honestly what a cracking card that was, not a nonstop thriller but it had some really good moments throughout and finished with a bang.

    The cards dont reflect how good the fight actually was.
    For anyone who never watches the fight will believe it was a blowout by looking at the cards.

    A 3rd fight if it was like that would be eminently watchable.

    On this showing though both want to stay away from Matias, who would walk through them both
