    Women's boxing (Holm/Sanders). Not much else of note.

    More likely the before the end of the year will have greater matches. They want another Fight of the Year to be known before the year ends so it could easily win.

    Well you just missed a cracking LHW battle over here between Dean Francis (Commonwealth Champ) and Tony Oakey (British Champ).

    Not exactly world level...but...oh...what a war!

    Francis won the first round with his boxing, then Oakey took 2,3,4 and 5 with his mauling aggression, and Francis looked ****ed(breathing heavily, mouth gaping open, and a bad cut over his left eye). Francis then took over in the next few rounds with his superior technique, finishing Oakey off late with a three-punch combo punctuated at the last with a mega-ton left hook to the jaw. Oakey actually did get up, but a couple of uppercuts later and the ref saved him from further punishment. Oakey had never been stopped before.
