    Selby schooling Barros, I think he'll struggle against taller fighters with a bit more range. Selby eats up inside fighters all day long.

    Round 1 Selby 10-9
    Round 2 Selby 10-9
    Round 3 Selby 10-9
    Round 4 Selby 10-9
    Round 5 Selby 10-9
    Round 6 Selby 10-9 Close
    Round 7 Selby 10-9 Very Close
    Round 8 Selby 10-9 Close
    Round 9 Selby 10-9

    Barros hitting air a lot, and most of the shots he's connecting with are barely landing, whereas almost everything Selby throws lands.

    Honestly Selby VS Frampton would be a terrible style match-up. But I think Selby would beat him.

    Selby's movement the last 4 rounds not really to setup much, or keeping him clear ring general. I think he should stick to a front-foot attack more, to back up Barros and thwart his confidence. Selby was much more effective and clearly won the 9th though, after a few close rounds.

    Yeah probably but I think Jr will pose and showboat quite a lot tonight, AA isn't fast on his feet so I expect Jr to exploit that and "entertain" against an old faded AA, so it might not be constant beating, just the odds spots of activity and flurries.

    I'm really struggling to watch this but I expected this type of fight.

    Barros has no idea how to cut the ring off and his feet are too slow.. frustrating to watch.

    Selby back on course in the 9th and 10th, boxing as well as he did earlier. Barros now losing confidence after he couldn't take advantage of the momentum he started to find in the 6th. Selby should cruise the last two rounds.

    :lol: I think we all are. The ref should just cut the fight short and end it due boredom.
