    Jesus Howard Foster loves a stoppage, how does he keep on getting high profile fights? Definitely premature.

    Seeing it again and he should absolutely have been a standing 8 count.

    I'm no snooker fan but I can't help but watch O'Sullivan when he plays. Takes over 3 months out of the game and comes back and demolishes his opponent in the first round of the World Championships today, and at the age of 49. The man's a ****ing genius.

    Just turned it on. In a surprise that only the dumbest wouldn’t have foreseen Eubank Sr is walking in with Eubank Jr

    Think Eddie Hearn has hired the WWE apprentice writers who don’t make the cut. Couple that with the primary school acting skills at the weigh in and it all feels a bit ****e tbh. Still whatever generates the most money

    Thought Eubank was a bit lucky to get that decision. No way was it that wide.

    Not sure mate, Eubank outlanded him in every round. Benn just swung wildly like it's a pub brawl but the majority hit air or gloves.

    They're both ****e really. Was fun to watch but wasn't much actual boxing going on.

    Benn is a KO waiting to happen fighting like that. Any world level operator times him with ease imo. Eubank looked absolutely ****ed from early on with the rehydration clause but still won it comfortably.

    Yeah, exactly what I said to my mate, anyone half decent panels these. You’re right on reflection, but I thought it was two rounds max. Plus Eubank (both of them) pisses me off.

    If you watched that on mute without the ridiculous commentator trying to hype it up you’d think “wtf am I watching”.

    As it turns out lots of people seem to think it was fight of the year or something when the quality was exceptionally low. Was entertaining to a point but neither had any power at all and the only way either would’ve gone down was due to punching themselves out.

    I’m sure Hearn will be delighted and there will definitely be a rematch as neither have better or more lucrative opponents as options. Thought Eubank won, but only by a couple of rounds.

    Yeah I had it by two rounds but it's only a one round swing for it to be by four so no complaints on the score for me.

    Draper into Madrid final on Sunday playing Ruud. Ruud has had more experience on clay, but Jack is the player on form. Draper now ranked world number 5.

    Ferrari nailed the timing of bringing Lewis in for slicks.
