    Seeing Ward jump up to celebrate even after the cards had been read out was epic.

    Clearly the poor lad doesn't realise that 95-95 and 94-94 cards = a draw.

    Carroll was 14/1 to win before the start, apparently. Did anyone know that?

    Why? He has been as bemused by the judging as (I hope) the rest of the viewers - he had Maxi winning that (and I think Buckland winning his SF and Whyatt winning his QF). He comes across as a pompous tit but at least he isn't toeing the Sky line.

    Yeah, one of the Irish lads posted a thread saying he'd be a great pick.

    I'll tell you what, I will be keeping an eye on Carroll. Seems like the basics are down to a tea, nice combinations, a light arrogance, and power.

    I hate to say it but Jono Carroll reminds me a fair bit of Tim Bradley without the physical gifts, he can fight,brawl, box and adapts and never dominates but takes people out of their gameplan.
    You never think he dominates but his ring intelligence is excellent, he'll be a champion one day, whether it's European or World - who knows. Enjoy the ride.

    I stopped watching after the Buckland robbery, complete farce. It seems like every week we have to put up with this corruption.
