Giorgio Visioli vs. Joseph Howarth RBR

Might not kayo him clean but a cuts stoppage isn't out of the question.

 

Visioli: ginger Italian?

 

Clinching is getting to be a bit much from both.

 

Indeed, he has fought at high as junior middle while Visioli's more of a career lightweight.

 

Few nicks have sprouted up.

Three rounds to go, let's see how good a job they do globbing on the Vaseline.

 

I really think Howarth's at least a natural welter.

 

Assume this will be scored by a panel of judges, being a ten rounder for a BBBofC English belt (as was the co-main), and not by the referee?

 

Big ninth for Vis, throwing fluid combos as Howarth appears to be "feeling the pace" and getting frozen in place succumbing to his frustrations, per the commentators.

 

This might be a fight where a shutout is a correct card but doesn't tell you the full story, where a handful of rounds in the middle were very competitive. I don't think you could go any narrower than 98-92 or at a stretch 97-93, though.

Howarth did score a belter of a right with just under a minute left in the contest, fair play to him.
