    I didn't watch the entire fight I only watched a HL and I had Paro edging it based off that. I think once you reach a certain level of respect on here and attain the status and rack up as many BN24 ranking points as I have you get to score fights based off watching HL videos.

    That being said, whilst Paro is good fighter, I think Paddy O Donovan will be too big, slick and powerful for him

    And I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that pencil moustache corrupt creep Tony Weeks working the fight. I thought we'd seen the last of him :facepalm:

    Only people that will hire him now are Aussie but why?

    I'd put money on it him working in Australia is a favour to Haymon as he us now doing business over there

    Hey Brits, I thought the refereeing & judging were fine. They got it bang on. Maybe just accept that your bloke lost to a Light Welter & move on.

    I think most Australian fighters from a division below would beat their British counterparts from a division above. Take Jai Opetaia, for example. He would likely mop the canvas with the majority (all?) of the British Heavyweight division. Tally-ho.

    Nice to see McKean with some momentum again after a few local soft touches. Torrez and Parker both need a rebound opponent with a decent record who isn't too risky. Would like to see one of those next.

    Demsey McKean has been facing the kind of domestic Australian Heavyweight opponent that Slow Eddie Hearn should have been feeding Teremoana & it shows. McKean has never looked better.

    McKean isn't terrible. I'd say he's solid fringe contender level if Hrgovic and Itauma losses haven't completely ruined him. HW is going to be wide open soon. Guys like McKean need to stay focused because it's not completely hopeless for them.

    Can anyone explain why they fought in Australia on a random Wednesday?

    I had Crocker up by a point. Could have gone either way. Poor Donovan gets robbed in my book twice and now hopefully gets first shot at Paro. Can’t see Paro lasting long if he continues to get hit so much. Exciting fighter though.

    Nothing like the taste of salty Pommy tears first think in the morning.
