    im from Dublin, and i would much rather see Crocker win than Donovan......thats how much of a twat, Donovan comes across.

    but i cant deny the guys talents, he's a very very good fighter!!!

    There's next to no chance that Crocker, who looks like an overly-groomed prized twat himself, will see the final bell.

    On what I see and hear, it was plainly obvious Crocker had an off night in the 1st fight, due to certain circumstances.

    Also rematches often go the same way as the first fight.

    Please don’t start talking nonsense he was clearly beaten in the first fight he was knocked out in an exchange with his hands up

    Congratulations @billy nelson

    I do think Donovan won both, with Crocker only winning three rounds of the second, but it's still a good achievement I suppose.

    Your boy just earned himself a winning ticket there, Billy. Hopefully Conlan holds that title to ransom the way DiBella did after Kambosos beat Teo. Guess we’ll be seeing you dripped out like Bakole at the next one — Cuban links, Gucci, the full works.

    you could probably swap out round 2 or 12, because he 100% won the 9th....

    do you know what this fight kind of reminded me of, a mix of two match ups, Groves vs Degale, and Frampton vs Santa Cruz 2. both fights the heavy favourites completely underestimated the boxing ability of their opponents.

    Crocker won round 12? I didn't get the feeling he won round 12 while watching, and the punch stats show Donovan landed 23 punches to Crocker's 7. Only one of the punches thrown by Crocker was decent. He was flailing away like a man who thought he needed a knockout.

    Overall punches 119 for Donovan and 72 for Crocker. I gave Crocker the two rounds in which he scored knockdowns and then the ninth, but only just.

    Donovan, in my humble opinion, was robbed.

    Crocker seems a nice guy, but he's lost his last three boxing matches, yet is somehow the IBF World Champion and is still undefeated. Someone posted this earlier and it's an interesting conundrum.
