    He's 30 being led by mercenaries. Imagine if he has a team who actually cares about him. The lad is athletic and has power. He was abandoned by his corner in the fight. Shane and the boys need to hang their heads in shame for leaving Fowler alone for 8 rounds with no real support. Mercenaries who don't deserve the wage they will take tonight and people who understand boxing will agree with me.

    Please give Conor Benn a top 10 opponent like he’s asking for. Be great to see him get ironed out.

    Deciding whether to take a nap or stay up for the distance. Probably stay up now.

    No surprise with the McGuigan’s involved. They’d sell one of their own if it meant earning a few quid.

    Fowler is annoying especially on Twitter but he's not a nasty person. He's just cringe that's all.

    There's just something unlikeable about the Smith bros. They seem far too entitled for me.

    And we already know what Courtenay is made of.

    I agree with you there. He’s a tit with zero self awareness but his hearts in the right place. He’s just desperate to be liked deep down. Courtenay on the other hand is vile.

    Smith Bro's seem entitled because they have fought for their position by tooth and claw. Paul fought for 20 fights on small hall shows making nothing to lead the way and fair play to them they always stuck by their friends in Bellew and Pricey when others abandoned them. Smith Bro's Pricey and both the Rotunda and Solly are integral to British boxing.

    Just a few things from that fight, I thought Howard Foster stifled the inside work. He also helped Smith out when he got hurt. Fowler was trying to unload and Foster strangely separated them.

    Fowler's opponents since Fitzgerald were poor. They taught him very little, he barely had to get into 3rd gear. The step up in quality was too much. It does these lads no good having tick over after tick over.

    Absolutely love watching Liam Smith but his punch resistance has gone. I think it's time to retire and finish on a high.

    I noticed that moment when Foster broke them up, was totally bizarre. Another idiot referee trying to get involved and ruin the flow of a fight.

    Howard Foster had the best officiating performance of his life! Come on! Go by the BBBOC rules here. Don't be a coward and call it as it was. Fowler had a winnable fight he lost because of his corner being mercenaries and abandoning him after round 1. The sooner we expel these mercenaries who take credit they don't deserve like Coldwell the better for British Boxing.

    Normally I agree with you but you are bang out of order here if we go by BBBOC rules.

    That’s the thing she actually showed a lot of heart in there especially in the 8th round when she had Mitchell hurt.

    But then threw her toys out of the pram and showed zero respect to her opponent.

    It’s sport. People will comment about it online. People hate and like athletes in all sports, big deal. Will Courtenay give a **** about what some bloke says about her on a boxing forum? Of course not.

    100% agree with you Pal. If only she had a team around her that cared she could have gained a lot of fans tonight. Instead she has lost even more Pal.
