    :yep

    DemolitionDan is doing a proper RBR of the Welsh matches in my Kessler-Bouadla thread in the General Forum. (I've got prior commitments occupying me until Froch-Johnson starts).

    Round 8:
    A slightly quieter round after the drama of the 7th. Turley is still coming forward and throwing plenty of shots to be fair to him. The round hots up as it comes to the end with Frampton landing a 1-2 which knocks Turley's head back.
    Frampton 79-71

    Turley doesn't even have a competent corner. I'm impressed by this kid.

    Good learning test for Frampton this is. i dont really see anything wrong with his performance, even though it isnt spectacular or anything.

    What are the chances of Turley winning via SD?

    Seriously? :blood


    British forum "RBR" threads are (almost always) actually "discussion" threads. There is hardly ever a detailed round-by-round report given by anyone. It's all just random chaotic general chit-chat. Which is all well and fine, but as AL says...not a RBR.

    edit: I just noticed you're actually doing one. :oops:

    OK, like I said...almost always. :yep

    It'd be nice to see him try to work for the openings a bit more but Turley doesn't look like the easiest to do that against.

    Good learning fight.:good

    How come? Wallet's been doing a RBR and others have been scoring, what else would it be called?

    I think its a bit surprising how Frampton doesn't throw a lot for a small man. Thats okay if you're a monstrous puncher but maybe he's not...? I'd like to see him working harder.
