    SBW is the hottest division in boxing right now. Can't see Munroe making any kind of a dent above European level.

    Yep, more clued-up.

    But 116-112, 116-112, 118-100.

    Munroe sounds barmy...

    bit of an early stoppage in the jefferies fight, but pointless letting that go on. excellent debut though.

    Good from Jeffries. Hard jab. Bruised that guys face up in under a minute. Threw some hurtful right hands catching the guy on the top of the head and his legs turned to jelly. In the end the ref stopped him on his feet in the first after he was taking too many.

    Jeffries should make a good pro to at least British level. Good jab, punches hard, looks pretty big, come forward style.

    12st1 could make a super-middleweight!

    Yeah that was impressive, he clearly seemed to be doing things he'd worked on in training

    Looks like he can punch a bit but I was most impressed with his speed and variety

    Temperament looks good too, he was relatively relaxed from the start and really loosened up quickly

    Munroe won an attritional fight. Martinez caused problems early, was possibly leading 4-2 or so. But in the end Munroe used his strength and work-rate and wore him down. Was very close to forcing a stoppage in round 12. Won by 4 points give or take.

    Great performance from Rendall :D Worried early on but I am every time with him. He will need to sort that out soon. Seemed to take some great punches, not sure if Martinez is actually that good a puncher or Munroe has a great chin.

    Hopefully he will step up in class now as he fights some contenders but he'll need to get rid of some of his obvious issues.

    No disrespect to Munroe but, despite Kiko's KO of Dunne he has done nothing of note and he is a terrible, predictable boxer and Munroe really made a meal out of that fight!
    For european level, that was not a good show.
    Was there ever any doubt that Dunne would beat him!
    Judging by that performance Dunne would out class Munroe.

    Dunne is ok but nothing above domestic standard. I doubt he would get near beating Munroe at all. The lad has never shown any class.

    I dont think either of them are close to World Level.

    I mean, can you see either of them in with Juan Manuel Lopez?!

    You would really fear for Dunne...
