    He was in front, not only did the commentators say it, Adam Booth confirmed that Matthews was ahead on the refs card at the post fight interview. Just stating a fact mate, not an opinion.

    I don't think he's shot but maybe in need of a change and some confidence rebuilding. I never been hugely taken with him as a fighter but against Lindsey he boxed very well and the shot he was caught with was stunning. He will need to settle at either super feather or lightweight and look to get back quickly and start rebuilding his reputation.

    he is too young to be shot.

    he has always looked very frail and ridiculously weight drained, and that is why he is losing fights now. It is catching up with him!

    he needs to fight at a higher weight, that means he has some strength and stamina on fight night.

    Being dirty is simple. If you can do it and get away with it then more power to you. Hopkins, Hatton, Ali, Foreman etc all fought dirty and got away with it. You do what you have to do to win.

    Was Derry Matthews another overhyped Warren fighter?
