Jack Catterall vs. Arnold Barboza Jr & Reece Bellotti vs. Michael Gomez Jnr + Barrett vs Dickens RBR

Jazz’s Dickens always has that in him, one of most dedicated boxers there is and often over trains.

 

Disappointed for Caterall, felt like a bit more output would have seen him home. Great performance from Barboza. Lastly Sam Jones, hahahaha, if the price British boxing has to pay is to not have a world champion to see the back of that clown, then I'm sorry Jack, but it's for the greater good mate.

 

His stacked stable hasn't had a good few months.

 

I like Catterall seems a good bloke but really hope this loss encourages him to do more in future fights.

 

I just don't get the DAZN commentary.
It insults any ones intelligence, casual or hard-core fan. Whoever passes the order that they want cheering for the home fighter wants sacking.

 

Was there live. Upper tier closed off but lower tier was pretty packed. 9K crowd I reckon. Good show overall (but not amazing or anything). Co op arena is a lovely arena. Easy to get a beer or some food. Good sightlines. Had Barboza winning by a couple. Jack needed more output, he had his moments but not enough to win the fight.

Loved the main event started before 10pm. Easy to get away after show.

 

Catterall isn't doing himself any favours with nights like that

 

you need another gear to call yourself a truly world level boxer. this fight was Catterall’s for the taking. Barboza is solid but nothing special, the Taylor of five years ago would have dealt with him easily

 

7k apparently which is still pretty decent.

Will try and get to the arena soon.

 

get another undeserved shot the next time the circus comes to Manchester

 

7K is still a solid crowd. Paid £47 for my tickets and couldn't complain with the view. There are actually co op shops in arena so can pick up a sandwich for under £4 which isn't bad.

 

Few thoughts on last night.
Just doing enough finally caught up with Catterall I was shouting at the TV for him to be busier.
Great performance from Jazza not sure what Zelfa does now.
Robbie Davies needs to pack it in he's turned into a punchbag in recent years Mcormack looks a good prospect though.
Belloti did what was expected Gomez is and area level/English title level figher and won't ever be anything more which is absolutely fine but it was a routine win for Bellotti nothing more.

 

Probably true

 

Eddie Hearn said in an interview Robbie Davies had retired, which is good.

 

Eddie Hearn won't be losing much sleep over Catterall losing last night.
