    Smith knew he was getting beat but instead of taking it like a man pulled a b1tch move with the headbutt. Terry O'Connor is fat, useless turd who is at best incompetent and at worst.......well. It was right in front of him ffs. The score cards were also a joke only having Williams one point up so maybe he would have got robbed either way.

    But seeing the way the Smiths and Joe Gallagher have reacted to this 'win' is what winds me up.

    Good fight, shame we didn't get a conclusive ending... has to be a rematch.

    Williams impressed me, I gave him the first 5 rounds. That said... he was tiring and Smith was coming on strong, in my eyes it was inevitable he was catching up with him and in all likelihood was going to stop him late.

    I can't wait to watch it again because obviously you see different things but I think a stoppage was definitely coming in 10-12. Williams was so much faster and was brilliant on the back foot except when Smith pinned him on the ropes which was very rare. Smith had no answer in the first 5 and I could be wrong but I had Smith winning 7-9 handily.

    On a separate note. It says my bet lost but I think I've been had off. He didn't answer the bell for the tenth so surely that's a retirement in round 10 and I should have won. Does anyone know the official rules on this?

    I've never liked O'Connor as a ref. I remember when he was a the ref for the first Fury vs McDermott. McDermott clearly won by at the very least 4 or 5 rounds, yet somehow O'Connor had Fury winning by 6 rounds. That's about as crooked it gets.
