    Every time penfold shouts Jab, McDonell throws it instantly. LMAO. How thick can you get?!

    Despite not being easy on the eye (which is putting it extremely mildly), the McDonnell brothers seem to be highly favoured by the judges for some strange reason. :eek: :confused:

    Not watching the fight but there was a photo on the sky sports LIVE page, McDonnell looked absolutely massive compared to Yafai, like at least 2 weight classes above?

    Yafai has the talent and speed, but too much wasted movement, too much careless slapping, he's not effective, and he's not winning rounds. McDonnell maintaining his distance well, landing well-timed, accurate punches. McDonnell outboxing Yafai. And putting more pressure on him and making him more uncomfortable every round.

    Because they constantly throw a pointless jab witch ironically wins them points.

    Yafai is nothing like his older brother it seems. Expected to see more body shots landing. Yafai reminds me of Tom Stalker, happy to just **** away the rounds and not do anything.
