    Thought Opetaia looked brilliant yesterday. Boxed superbly and didn’t let himself get drawn into a slugfest. Great performance.

    Of the boxers in the world title defenses Jai has made, I though Glanton was up there with most of them. He really shouldn't have survived some of the hooks and uppercuts that were landing either, tough buggr.

    Great job from Jai. Admittedly he was expected to win dominant - but he proved again why he is in the top spot. All bases covered when a big contender comes along.

    Billem-Smith probably running even faster after that.

    A very different undercard list to what I saw in the newspaper and posted above.

    Yeah, probably right. It's a weak card if that's all there is to it.

    Francis Waitai vs Max Reeves on the Tszyu card is a solid match up.

    Would loved to have seen Kiki Toa on this one. Maybe against a Goodall or Grach
