Can Xu vs. Leigh Wood & Tommy McCarthy vs. Chris Billam-Smith + Avni Yildirim vs. Jack Cullen RBR.

Can deserved that, and so did Wood

 

Fully deserved.

He looked great tonight, took his opportunity when it was presented.

 

Let's give Wood some credit here. Nobody thought he'd win. He boxed well at range and kept Xu at bay with his jab and strong single shots to the body and round the guard. Regardless of whether you think Xu had an off night, that was a good performance.

 

Xu was done, no early stoppage

 

Me 2.

 

Is Wood the worst World champion EVER?

His resume is shockingly bad. Not even sure why he deserved a title shot. But Eddies money made it happen.

His Top 3 wins before tonight are David Oliver Joyce, Ryan Mould and Ryan Doyle. LMFAO.

 

Inactivity is a killer especially for fighters who rely on high output and lack power.

congrats to wood though take nothing away from him.

 

Agreed

With how long was left, the ref could have let it go maybe

 

yes yes , I called it

 

WAY early. Can didn't Biles out.

 

You're more bitter than John Smiths mate.

 

Lets be honest

Its not a World Title

 

Wood would have gotten the W as he should but this is another british stoppage.

 

Reece Mould

 

Not seen as gallant title defence since Callum Smith Vs Canelo
