Braithwaite was winning the round and then hurt Ahmed at the end of the round. Important round for him.

I am sure he has won this fight but after hearing the commentators I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t get the decision.
115-114 Braithwaite 117-111 Ahmed 114-114 Split Draw FFS - Ahmed has had so many draws.I thought Ahmed won a close decision.
I got one, didn't realise this was on but thanks for the RBR guys, enjoyed reading it. Marcel Braithwaite sounds like two fighters stuck together. I'm thinking half wiry French welter, half stolid, shuffling Yorkshire heavy.
