    This is a better fight than I thought it would be.

    Round 6

    O'Sullivan is tagging Douglas consistently with the high straight right hand. O'Sullivan isn't wasting anything, creeping in with the guard up, testing the waters with the jab, letting Douglas open up first and shooting the counter right whenever he sees the telltale mechanics at the outset of Douglas' jabbing motion. Left hooks on the body by O'Sullivan help facilitate things when Douglas isn't as eager to open up from against the ropes.

    10-9 O'Sullivan

    59-55 O'Sullivan

    Spike dominated first half with his jab and straight rights, but Douglas showed a little fight in the second half, but not enough.

    Douglas fights with his mouth open. If he's not careful, he's going to get a broken jaw.

    3-3

    Douglas is a good fighter not a great one, Jones Jr is carrying on like Douglas is his son.

    Round 7

    O'Sullivan hurts Douglas with a right and immediately starts pouring it on. Lefts and rights, hooks and overhands in alternation, pinning Douglas on the ropes and then bouncing him off them. Douglas looks about to go down, and he does. The ref starts a count and Douglas meets it but looks shaky, and the contest is called.

    TKO7!!

    no doubt you're referring to the Monroe weigh in when one of the Saunders' lads punched Monroe in the nuts (or at least it appeared that way to me).

    didn't happen in the Lemieux weigh in though (didn't see his sons at all in fact)--too bad, it would have been a clever Saunders' trademark before each fight
