    Round 1 Catterall 10-9, very close
    Round 2 Linares 10-9, close
    Round 3 Catterall 10-9
    Round 4 Catterall 10-9, close
    Round 5 Catterall 10-9
    Round 6 Linares 10-9, close
    Round 7 Linares 10-9
    Round 8 Catterall 10-9
    Round 9 Catterall 10-9
    Round 10 Linares 10-9
    Round 11 Catterall 10-9, close
    Round 12 Catterall 10-9, close

    Another close one, but Jorge just wasn't quite active enough. Jorge acquitted himself fairly well tonight. And not a shock, he went the distance. Jack is that conservative and safety first.

    116-112 Catterall

    Catterall might be boring but I could definitely see his style troubling both Lopez and Haney

    I didn't expect to be watching a worse fight than the youtuber card last week but there you go. Last time I tune in to watch Caterall until he fights someone that will wipe him out.

    Not the greatest 12 rounds I've watched. It never really caught on fire.


    I've got Cat winning by a couple of rounds.

    8-4 Jack. 7-5 is fine as well. Should be a comfortable win, but it'll be wider than it actually was on the official cards.

    Should change the name from Cat to puss. Against a fading great he could only muster this.

    Catt did what he had to do and avoided making mistakes against a guy who can exploit them in a blink of an eye. I enjoyed the skill on display. Catt can stand there and not be hit. Very well schooled fighter. I thought Linares was visibly impressed by his ability
