    Want to see Cash fight a decent sized MW now at British level, very good defensively to the body but had it all his own way.

    Would like to see how he does when backed up by a strong fighter and not on the front foot.

    Good performance tonight.

    I know zelfa won that but he was bordering on struggling for most of the first 5 rds, he had his moments but the better work was from donavan.
    I had it 4-1 and wouldn't of argued against 5-0.
    I had to go out after 5th and when I got back hed stopped him.
    Now I've seen donavons earlier pro fights and i weren't that impressed. Zelfa is going to struggle against a good southpaw who is fit and strong and the same as weight naturally as him. Even more so against the same southpaw with long levers, who knows what he's doing.
    and thats me saying that, I'm a massive zelfa fan btw.
    Good win for Cash.

    Ah thanks bud and @Wizbit1013 . I was so close. Could have really have done with the dosh but that was a really enjoyable night of boxing that.

    Chuffed for Ball as it was very clear who Sky/Matchroom wanted to win. The right fighter won.
    That was a lovely finish from Barrett who was really struggling with the southpaw stance of Donovan.
    Felix Cash showed some nice work against Welborn although he must have punched him in the nads about 15 times.

    Anyway, hope you lads enjoyed it.

    Very good evening mate and I thought the young Jock lad looked good as well in the first fight.

    Don't rate little Shannon in the ring but I thought she edged it.

    Think Barrett is a smaller Tony Dosh PPV - a big KO awaits when evenly matched.

    I agree m8, im loving it. When Boxnation were up and running if they put these sort of bills on from UK on a weekly basis, they would still be in business.

    Will Tony Hayers ever contribute to a LIVE boxing thread?

    Hea Irish traveller stock, good nights boxing, Barrett just too big and strong for Donovan, what a fight though.

    Really enjoyed the boxing last night.

    I don't like Courtenay she thinks she is so much better than she is so was glad she lost and got dropped but despite not liking her, she did win that fight for me. Ball didn't impress me at all considering all the hype behind her and if they rematch I see Shannon winning.

    The Sky commentary is so bad and even the casual fans must be seeing right through it.

    Listen to round 5 of the Fowler fight last week where he totally dominated the fight from the first second of round 1 against a no hoper who was battered all over the ring.

    Macklin in round 5 comes out with 'He is beginning to get on top'. It was no different than a football commentator coming out with Bayern Munich are getting on top when they made it 2-8 last night.

    Clearly he is not watching the fight or being fed his lines in his ear.

    Last night was absolutely pathetic and even worse when Smith is there shouting the pre-rehearsed lines.

    These quotes are seeming much more "tin foil hat" after the fight. Many people had Coutney winning that match despite Macklin's commentary. However, I don't think reality will change the opinions of the "hard core".
