    When JOD is being lacklustre then Glover has a chance but when JOD opens up he shows the talent difference.

    No real complaint from Glover at the stoppage which usually tells you a lot.

    What a frustrating fight. Little power on show. Bit of a mismatch. Shitty MC.

    O'Donnel's style is awful to watch. That copycat Froch jab is cringeworthy.

    Just a crap night.

    Although, on the upside, it's nice to hear the Park Inn, Loughborough getting a mention.

    JOD is boring to watch.

    The MC is awful. I never thought it would be so hard to find a decent MC. Can only Showtime and HBO get it right.

    If a fight hasn't got a chance of ending violently then we want to see top skills or a war.

    Glover had no dig in any of his punches, bit of a let down.

    Hennessey couldn't even be bothered to shave for the fight. Even he wasn't up for it.

    Yeah, Hearns was the guy that sprung to my mind. That low left and waving the arms about before lauching a combo.

    O'Donnell style reminds me of a southpaw version of Charlie Zelenoff

    Also, another thing that pissed me off was Richie Davies getting his fat ass constantly in between the camera and the boxers.
