    How many stinkers has Floyd Mayweather been in? People still watch his fights because he keeps winning. ;)

    I saw Purdy 3/1 to stop Watson and I thought wtf. He stopped him last time. Thought it must be a Rahman-esque 'fluke'

    That Bellew fight has downed all my accumulators. Well pissed :(

    Disappointing fight that. Bellew's camp will be happy enough though, never in danger but really we hoped for better.

    You're not comparing Bellew's boxing to Floyd's now are you...

    Can't fault Bellew, did what was required. However, the downside is he might think he's ready to mix it with Cleverly and he's just not in the same league.

    3rd round. Garay is so clearly the smaller guy, it's not even funny.
    Both throwing occasional flurries, Garay throwing more of those than Huck though.

    Huck loses a point for a rabbit punch! Garay bent down and Huck threw his punch straught down, hard to argue though most refs would've just given a warning

    Garay round + deduction 10-8

    Nelson not the ideal man to be talking about exciting fights really.

    Cleverly would put a vicious beating on Bellew.

    McKenzie is a journeyman, Bellew should have stopped him early.

    Bellew did the right thing, he boxed McKenzie and won easily. Good luck to him. Watt was right, McKenzie should have been throwing bunches of punches, he isnt going to get too many fights like this again, high risk-low reward fighter. On the plus, Bellew-Cleverly is still on.

    I reckon there is zero chance of anyone winning Burns Cook in rds 1 or 2
