    Opetaia vs Briedis next.

    With all the upsets, I don't think anything is sure right now.

    Cacace was 12/1 for the stoppage with William Hill and apparently he's been banging in sparring. That's my night paid for :)

    Frank Sanchez has a Cuban passport that is 20 years too generous

    No way is that guy not even 30 years old

    He looked like a 50 year old in there

    Well done to Agit Kabayel....first Makhmudov and now Sanchez

    Two big scalps

    Hope he gets a shot soon

    Move the rematch to one of their hometowns and let's do it again. The controversy mixed with the baking of Cordina will likely spark a rematch.

    I love the guy, been a fan since his robbery loss to Martin Ward. Even did a thread about him 4 years ago.:D It's well known he hits a hell of a lot harder than advertised, and his wins over Bowen and Magnesi, proved he had excellent whiskers. So I had a feeling he wouldn't have much to fear from Joe, and walk right through him. That being said, I thought he'd drop him a few times, and win on points. He even exceeded my expectations.:applaudit:

    Surprised he doesn't have more knockouts. Those are hard shots

    Controversial refereeing but Cordina was stiff when taking shots prior to the incident. So it’s up in the air.

    Good fight, does it mean main event will start earlier ? or they are going to keep commercials rolling ?

    I hope Briedis has one last great performance in him, the first fight was an incredible back & forth war.

    However to be fair Cordina is not complaining about the stoppage being premature.
