    Round 1 Xu 10-9
    Round 2 Wood 10-9
    Round 3 Xu 10-9
    Round 4 Xu 10-9
    Round 5 Xu 10-9
    Round 6 Wood 10-9
    Round 7 Wood 10-9
    Round 8 Wood 10-9

    Yes, a lot of Wood's shots are missing but this isn't a good look, Xu is not throwing enough or landing enough, he managed to land a few uppercuts that seemed to shake XU up in the last minute or so.

    Not sure about bombs mate, the guy couldn’t break an egg.

    I have it closer than that.

    Heading towards a justifiable Brit stoppage this one is.

    Xu has landed nothing much of note in the past 3 rounds. Wood has been landing to the body and round the guard. He looks like the guy in charge since round 5.

    One of the reasons Xu's work rate is lower is because Wood is stiff-arming him to keep him at bay and measure him for his right hand. Ward used to do this **** a lot too and the ref is allowing Wood to get away with it all night.

    He has the curly hair chromosome. That's the most powerful one.

    Round 1: 10-9 Xu
    Round 2: 10-9 Wood
    Round 3: 10-9 Xu
    Round 4: 10-9 Xu
    Round 5: 10-9 Xu
    Round 6: 10-9 Xu
    Round 7: 10-9 Xu
    Round 8: 10-9 Wood
    Round 9: 10-9 Wood

    Xu is tired as **** and slowing down massively. I guess it wasn't a great idea taking that fight in the UK on short notice. His output dropped a lot in the last two or three rounds and Wood is constantly throwing to the arms and gloves and landing some clean stuff in between as well.

    Round 1 Xu 10-9
    Round 2 Wood 10-9
    Round 3 Xu 10-9
    Round 4 Xu 10-9
    Round 5 Xu 10-9
    Round 6 Wood 10-9
    Round 7 Wood 10-9
    Round 8 Wood 10-9
    Round 9 Wood 10-9

    Much closer round than the last two. Xu amped up the pressure and the volume, but Wood responded well, taking the second half with the heavier blows, that are landing clean, more and more.
