    R8 Cacace TKO

    Hurt Cordina who was pinned on the ropes, but an absolutely disgraceful stoppage. My word. Let the champion go out on his shield! Horrific ending but well deserved victory for Cacace, I would like to see it again.

    I think Cacace was winning and was going to win but stoppage I think a tad premature!

    Cordina didn't complain at all. Good stoppage.

    Cordina stopped, happy for Cacace. Would love to see Cacace vs Nunez.

    This ref may as well be sitting outside the ring, the way he's doing his job. They got this referee straight from the 50s the way he’s letting Cacace get the **** beat out of him.

    I was running around my room screaming with sheer ecstasy. It's been a long time coming but Ireland has a male champ once again. So ****ing happy right now!

    I think the ref just stopped it on accumulation. He was just taking a leathering round after round.

    As a champion who carries power, there's potentially a chance to pull it out the bag, but I'm not mad at the stoppage

    Great performance from Cacace would not be denied. Cordina showed a ton of heart and showed flashes of skill just got overwhelmed.

    Naw, it was the accumulation.

    The dude was too tough for his own good.
