    Just watched it, I picked sunny on points got to eat my crow bam has clearly improved from his last 2 fights he applied intelligent pressure, sunny couldn’t deal with the reach advantage and fact bam didn’t rush in, it forced sunny into to many single punches to early and sunny never been used to fighting against a fighter who made him miss.

    greet performance by bam.

    I knew I was forgetting another iron-jawed Brit warrior. I forgot Froch and I was only including MWs, SMWs and LHWs too :facepalm:

    Bloody heck. Fair play for Sunny going out on his shield and not quitting.

    Good summary.

    Just watched it. I had it close at the half way. The right man won in the end, though. Edwards showed a lot of heart (especially considering the condition of his eye). Good knock down by Bam in their final round to seal it.

    But yeah, the DAZN commentary team can suck a dick. They are always terrible. If only there was a way to switch off those idiots and keep the rest of the audio

    Great fight, both kinda equally skilled but Rod got more value from exchanges because of punching power.

    Close fight for the most part. I posted earlier that Edward's was using his head like a battering ram, perhaps his head butts caused the cuts. Lack of power cramped his performance. Bam threw a perfect right jab to blind Sunny followed it up with a massive straight left that Sunnry didn't see.

    Bam has the whole package.....good boxing skills, decent defense and power when he needs it.

    Nah the better man won full stop. He is not a heavy enough hitter the way she wants it.
