Sam Eggington vs. Carlos Amado Molina & Kaisee Benjamin vs. Martin Harkin RBR.

Right winner, great fight. But did i hear right, did 1 judge give it to Eggington by 10 rounds ?

 

9-3 to 8-4 is fair.

 

Tell you one thing we are better at scoring fights than most of these judges. I gave Molina 3 rounds, there was 2 drawn rounds, but if i had to not give a drawn round, it would have been 1 round each out of those rounds, so 8-4. But i have no issue drawing rounds.

 

Nice to see Eggington get a good win there, he looked decent at the weight and had some decent pop in his punches

Probably the best I've seen him fight, traded when he needed but never over did it.

Gets caught with his glove low at times but no where near as much as he used too. Excellent use of the jab throughout the fight and even worked on the backfoot and controlled the distance.

I do get the feeling that he would struggle against a better operator on the backfoot but he fought a great fight tonight.

 

That was a decent fight to score also. Only the 119-109 scorecard was ridiculous, I bet the round they gave Molina was the 12th.

 

Agree best i have seen him. Definetly improved technically and showed cute skills. Thats not something i have never associated with Eggington before.

 

Agree. To give Molina only 1 round and not a share of a round is very poor judging.

 

Agree controlled the distance really well till the last round. But credit held up and was the right winner. Nice one to watch enjoyed that

 

If I was Sky i would be trying to keep AJ for PPV slots and give Mick the the Saturday Fight Night slots. His matchmaking on these top of bill fights on a limited budget is 2nd to none.

 

You never get a whole stinker of a televised card with Mick either.

It's been said time and again but he's probably the best matchmaker in the UK, he certainly is with the budget he has.

 

Yeah definetly m8. Look at way he spotted Froch and Fury potential others missed.

 

noticed on the Sky App how they’re plugging the Stevie McKenna and Eggington fights, possibly a sign that Big Mick’s stable might have a future there

 

Lwts hope so. But if he has to share Sky dates be should keep deal with 5 too. I love boxing on 5.
