    Very unsatisfactory ending. I've got a lot of sympathy for Welsh.

    I think Welsh was going to be stopped soon anyway.

    Shite ending.

    Shame for Godding as well because it looked like he was going to get him out of there.

    Welsh war obviously sticking his head in because he lacked the technical ability to out box Godding. I think the ref was lenient allowing hIm to continuously do this. I believe Godding was on the verge of stopping Welsh anyway.

    Godding was probably about to stop him anyway, but the DQ was still pretty poor IMO

    Saw the DQ coming, Welsh kept spitting his dummy out as soon as he got caught with clean shots. The only person to feel sorry for was Godding was on his way to a TKO/KO Victory.
