    Disgraceful mate hope he tells them to stick any rematch up there arse if there's any clauses involved he surely wouldn't do this again after being hospitalised.

    Not very good as in CEJ wasn't very good on Saturday night , even compared to how he has been in the past, although I don't think anyone has ever claimed he is Eilte or even World Class, he still looked a shadow of his former self imo and still won relatively comfortably.

    On that basis I wouldn't be rushing to put CB in with World Class fighters at his own weight over another huge pay day against CEJ as he'll just lose , then where does he go ? I doubt he would earn 20% of his purse from Saturday in any World Title fight , which would no doubt be a PPV event too.

    I have softened a bit since the fight, give junior credit for showing spirit and heart a lot of other fighters would have crumbled under the pressure, rehydration clause and obvious fatigue. Henn has also improved massively, he is an explosive scrapper and he had Junior wobbled in the third.

    I expected junior to win easily so credit to Henn for making a fight of it. Obviously he still has a huge question mark over his head and I think a decent boxer will expose Henn which is why he has been matched so carefully. Both below world level IMO but still put on a great domestic showdown.

    Fortunately both fighters came out safe. It could have been a disaster for all those involved. They made a ton of money, fighters and promoters alike. Let sleeping dogs lie. If they get greedy and opt for a rematch (on the same terms) then I'm afraid there might not be that stroke of luck this time around. One thing I did realise through this whole build up though, Eddie Hearn is a ****.
