    Looks like Hughes has changed tactics this round 7 and is taking it easier. Looks like he now comfortable and happy to box to a decision win?

    Hughes has no power. Don't flatter him.

    :deal: Which is precisely why I picked Straffon for the upset with Tennyson and Hughes for the upset, which shouldn't be seen as an upset at all, tonight.

    This has been a masterclass from Hughes. Picking his shots and barely missing.

    9*-0 Hughes

    I was just thinking of giving Staffon a pity round and then Hughes smashed that one-two at towards the end. :lol:

    :lol: Yeah. If I went hell for leather entire armies would get decimated with the power I wield in my mitts.

    I missed the first four, but... here's my scorecard so far. Absolute schooling.

    Round 5 Hughes 10-8
    Round 6 Hughes 10-9
    Round 7 Hughes 10-9
    Round 8 Hughes 10-9
    Round 9 Hughes 10-9

    Maxi has turned into an absolute beast, maybe the most improved fighters post-Covid in the sport.

    10*-0 Hughes. Just end this, corner. Take pity on your fighter getting rocked by a featherfist.

    Nice uppercut left hook at the end of that round from Hughes.

    he needs to stay out of trouble these last 3 rounds

    The first four were more of the same, I assure you.

    Like I keep telling you guys. Every British fighter can punch like a mule when we want to. We just prefer to dazzle with the slick British style and reserve our power punching displays and iron chins for domestic level match ups which are the envy of the world.
