    This is a great slugfest on the Fran Hennessy undercard

    Considering how out of shape they look both must have brilliant engines, they haven't stopped throwing

    It was a wide scorecard but a great scrap. We need more of them instead of 60-54 walkovers.

    The solo female judge didn’t fancy going against the 300 rowdy Albanians in the crowd. Prob scared she’d have been abducted, injected and used.

    Very good scrap for two fatties. The Albanian looked fresh despite being over 18 stone and not even that tall.

    Tremendous entertainment and effort, easily my favourite out of the Saturday night, Sunday morning cards.
    A “nobbins” fight, if ever there was one!

    Ergal Elezaj. Good ye olde British name. The commentators repeatedly mentioned all the Albanians in the crowd supporting him. Dog born in a barn isn’t a horse. He’s Albanian.

    @worzel Ok name this shop that's near you then, I'll wait. There's 100 times more Polskis than them in the UK. Most won't have even met one ever unless they've been in prison or living a few particular parts of east and north london.

    A don’t judge a book by its cover fight, a good scrap with a decent amount of skill, Particularly from the Albanian fighter who I thought won it pretty comfortably. I would have disappointed if the verdict went the other way or even a draw.

    Hopefully earned his spot on a few more BBC undercards.
