    It was a mixture of that, and Campbell really stepping his game up. I didn't think he had this kind of performance in him after tracking him through the first four rounds of the tourney. Most of us were favoring Nevin on their combined recent form, but the fights of course aren't won on paper.

    Agreed. Good fight, that, and they both showed real talent.

    Two very good fighters there.


    I'm really not sure about Joshua's chances. Watched the Italian last night, and his experiance really does show through.

    :lol: Joshua isn't losing. He could get KO'd and he will still win here.

    Joshua vs. Cammarelle is tomorrow, mate.

    Today is the regular (non-super) heavies featuring the other big Italian. The douchebag. :lol:

    That Chinese gangster Mr Woo who's giving the medals is the one that's destroying amateur boxing . How ironic .
