    Annoyed. Big fan of Moores and put 20 quid on him to win by stoppage. Wish he had taken a knee the moment he was rocked and given himself a chance.

    I think it was a great fight.

    Plenty of stones shown by the pair of them, the best two within their division in Europe fighting each other - one could have gone the interalphabetty, the other in eliminators etc and looked to a unification later.

    I expected Moore to win, if Rhodes was going to win I expected him to pick Jamie's pockets, but fair play, standing there and putting his balls to the wall.

    Glad Rhodes won, but Moore showed what a gentleman he is. No excuses from the loser, no bragging from the winner. Mutal respect - boxing at its finest.
