We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

Did buffer announce any other fights or does he get 6 figgies a fight to half arsedly mime sweet caroline and announce the headliner?

"Patel"? Fuck you.
That ref was loving crooked. Helluva fight overall, but reminded me why I hate watching British boxing cards. The broadcast crew were jokes as well. Chisora was ahead on my card. Glad to see the official judges’ cards weren’t done before the fight, at least (95-94 x2 Chisora, 95-94 Whyte).

Anyway Whyte’s got a good left hook and not much else. Joshua will destroy him.

i wasn't scoring it but i felt chisora was doing the better work. he noticeably tired the last 2 rounds and you could kinda see a knockout/whyte comeback coming tho

as a true connoisseur of the sweet science I watched Frampton Warrington instead

that's about the 4th time in a row I've written off Warrington and he's proved me wrong, might be the 5th if he fights Oscar Valdez

I want him to face Gary Russell Jr in his annual fight.

Both fights were good but I was admittedly paying attention more to Warrington Frampton. Chisora and Whyte seemed like 2 huge waves crashing into each other, they both got good shots in on each other in between big body clashes. It seemed likely one would go through and really turn the tide of the fight, especially as both got really tired. That hook was pretty standard for what Whyte was throwing all night, it just landed clean and at the right moment and went from hard to hellacious. I was genuinely worried for quite a bit, even after they got Chisora up on his feet. Stevenson was also pulled up onto his feet and "standing" and that didn't mean poo poo. But he looks like he'll be fine.

Warrington Frampton wasn't quite the war we probably all expected but had lots of good action, some real points of absolutely insane exchanges. Warrington out worked Frampton pretty much all night, especially to the body when they were in the phone booth. Frampton had plenty of good moments, even potentially fight changing ones but Warrington was unphased. Good fight, Warrington definitely deserves his success.

The best robberies are the ones that make no sense whatsoever so at you least you know it was just incompetence and not corruption. Though I am quite glad one of the Charlos finally took an L even if it was undeserved
