    Mendez just KO'd Salgado! VERY impressive. Mendez is trained by Lee Beard.

    I understand he offered replacement tickets to those who bought the original show tickets from him.

    And as others have said, it's only because of so many on here saying he can do no wrong that he's getting slated. You can't say he's improved the quality of the shows and then say that it's ok for his to turn out mediocre pish.

    We've now had a godawful HW Prizefighter, the terrible Froch-Mack fight and card, and tonight's.

    Nah he lost fair and square. It was a close fight, no robbery

    I expected more tonight then there was. Got a good reception but wasn't as loud as expected. Barker had the more support but the tickets were a joke i really was baffled by how tickets from ticketmaster didn't get posted you had to pick up from box office. I pick them up at 4ish and go to enter at 5.30 to get sent back to box office because the reader said go back there. I then get fresh tickets and go in without fuss.

    The first fight was awful in the latter stages. Both were spent and looked more like Area level fighters than World class just flailing their arms around. Not great viewing

    So, what's the approximate start time for Thurman vs Zaveck? Would thought it would be soon if it's on the East Coast

    Ref didn't like that did he. Good shot to put him down but strange to see a referee say to a fighter walk forward then go actually you're done tonight.
