That was harder work than it needed to be for Eubank. Half his problem.

Yeah he has all the tools to be a good fighter but the way he acts hold him back.Originally Posted by Ben
Fuck knows what fight Matthew Macklin was watching though.
Funny interview, what a loon.
Khan Brook ring walk in 25 minutes.
Had a fiver on Brook to win by KO/TKO at 5/1. Just feel like Khan has never convinced me.
Khan with wobbly legs already. What a shit show.
:thumb:
This has been quality
A man against a boy in there.
Has Khan's jaw played the Stone Cold intro yet?
Gutted the ref jumped in.
Yep. Khan has always been a massive prick and it would have been nice to see him get put on his arse one last time.
Think it played in every round but one.
I'm just glad he lost. Geezer would get knocked out in a pillow fight.
Pretty early doors Brook and/or Khan realised that the latter couldn't hurt the former despite the fancy footwork and hand speed. Unfortunately for khan, as soon as he's tagged, he's showing it. Brook can probably go again v Eubank or Benn and get a final pay out.
A 4 hour flight delay put pay to my chances of watching this live.
Completely forgot it was on until I saw the result this morning.
That Amir Khan is still boxing caught me a bit by surprise. I imagined that he retired a while ago. Maybe I am just confusing retirement with the time when he slid into irrelevance, which was indeed a long time ago.
I hope Josh Taylor moves up to WW if he wins tonight. Can’t be far off top 3 P4P in the world if he does.
The Scotch Heavyweight title on the line. Lordy. The state of these.
The deep fried Andy Ruiz is a bit of a mess here.
“El Tren” will be heading straight for a piss test after that strong performance.
Keen stoppage from the same ref as Khan-Brook last week.
Right call though. Maybe the pro move would have been to finish him for Ramirez but Donovan was gonners from that first shot, when he nearly went through the ropes.
Yeah can’t be argued, really. Refs generally do well these days to jump in before the inevitable onslaught. A decade ago the lad would have been pounded into the first row.
They let the fat lad take a bit too much but I'm not sure that'll do any lasting damage to him.
Flower of Scotland definitely doesn't lend itself to the full yank anthem treatment. Bagpipe band and let the crowd do the singing.
Insomnia with bagpipes is a banger.
I was slightly fearing for some of the pipers though.
Cattarall’s brother/mate had blatantly just had a big Santa’s eyebrow before the camera showed him.
I was thinking before the fight started that Taylor really needs to take a plunge at welterweight after this (and his body looks better suited to it) but Catterall has started this really well.
Catterall looks a right awkward bastard to fight. Fair play to him for bringing 2000 slags up with him from Chorley.
He looks the better boxer to be fair. I’ve got him 6-0 up. Let’s see how much they want a Crawford superfight because they’ll be having to manufacture the fix already.
Taylor is exposing Boxercise Ben as a trainer here. Built his name on shaving ten stone off Fury but can he mastermind a tactical win?
Going to need a sneaky tko wave off here.
Aye, not looking good. Will need a knockout from here
Even Taylor’s wife could only give him two rounds maximum so far. Needs a stop.
Is this ref on commission for timeouts?
Absolutely pumped. Hope he goes up in weights now to see how he fares
I can’t believe he’s been at 10st all this time. He’s too big for it.
Hats off to Catterall, a great fight from him.
These cards. Lol. One of the worst stitch ups.
Oh lol.
3 rounds on one as well. Embarrassing.
Unreal
I know it’s only February but that’s fix of the year.
They have form for it. Probably the worst call since Burns v Beltran. All English refs as well.
Got to love the talk. Taking over the fight whilst being sat down in those middle rounds. Jog on mate.
That judge who had him two up after being on his arse. The cheek
Don't usually get the promoter bowling our immediately calling it a disgrace.
It's hard to be surprised by boxing at times but that was definitely one of them. Taylor was completely outboxed and out thought and has got given one. Shocking decision.
Taylor lost
It's why it's one of the few sports I just avoid always. Contrived matchups and bent judges, all leading nowhere. What's the point?
At least in other sports the result reflects what actually happened.
I don't often watch boxing, but the BBC was raving about this Wood-Conlan fight so I tuned in for the final few rounds.
Absolute carnage and a crazy end to it, what a knockout.
