    Sexton would struggle to get to journeyman status over in Mexico. Just ain't the talent in the UK or even Europe at this weight for quality sparring or opponents on your way up.

    I'm actually giving the third to Robinson. Landed more and blocked a lot of shots.

    2-1 robinson

    Sexton should go the body more. Robinson's only loss is to bodyshots. Common sense...

    Yep agreed. He has been abroad to spar with the former French world champion who's name escapes me. He also asked Donaire for sparring two years back on fb. As you say the options ain't out there and tbh he doesn't know how to deal with the most basic of pressure fighters.

    First clear Robinson round, the 4th. He's looking to be in good shape to stop Sexton.

    If your a banger why are you backing up?....Sexton reminds me of Groves he's trying to be something he ain't. He's not a good enough to box off back foot to be effective.

    Robinson will win this IMO. He's got Sexton flustered.

    39-38 Robinson.

    Most clear round so far, and for Robinson.

    This has the look of a shocker. Robinson looks far stronger, ain't gonna be pretty for Sexton in rd 7 and 8.

    I got it 2-2

    Robinson has come on leaps and bounds in the last 6 months

    Body work from Robinson, could be key.

    Very good 4th for Robbo. Needs to keep thid pressure on and he mightt be able to wear him down more and stop him
