    Anyone watching this tonight? Can't say I've tuned in to the competition as of yet but will keep me going tonight until then Bhop v Kovalev fight.

    Clarkson is giving it go which is all you can ask for such a late replacement.

    Meh both fights have been poor. Clarkson looked gassed after three rounds, while Daws was against a real spoiler with a bizarre ending. Thank god for Sturm VS Steigleitz and the Adamek fight.

    I'd like to have seen more of the Blackwell fight - it looked the best of the night.

    Wasn't the best lastnight but the tournament has produced some quality fights to be fair

    Dickinson Vs Clarkson and Ajisafe Vs Francis we're 2 of the best domestic fights I've seen in the last year or so

    Bit of a rubbish ending but as you say the tournament threw up some very good fights.

    I'd like to see Mick do this with the cruiserweights or even fringe British heavyweights next year.

    The referee in the Cadli (sp?) fight really pissed me off, the Jeremy Beadle lookalike. Theres no need to push a fighter

    Very bizarre ending and i did genuinely feel sorry for the poor fella.

    Blackwell is a really good young fighter - I've said for a long while he in my opinion is the most underrated fighter in the country.

    I hope he catches a big break soon.

    Yeah that ref is a ****

    Felt sorry for the kid but Daws was winning that fight was only going to go that way

    i only caught the last few rounds of that fight, but after the referees actions i was actually rooting for the cadli guy, he was throwing some home run punches, the ref ruined what could have been some interesting last couple of rounds

    He's had plenty of big breaks, saunders, bursak, Murray and khomisky!!! How is he underrated??? Considering the tomato cans he's beaten??? Please elaborate
