    BBB of C is a closed shop old boys' club. Ian John Lewis, Terry O'Connor should be nowhere near a boxing ring with their track records.

        Wow. 120 to 73 punches landed in Cat's favor and got robbed.

            No way around this one, he has to rematch Catterall. More than likely they will take a big name fight and not risk it.

                Can someone change the thread title from 'razor close' to something more appropriate please. Christ.

                    He won't rematch. a) He knows he got beat, b) it was a mandatory, c) he's vacating to move up. This is a ****ing disaster for the reputation of boxing (for anyone who actually cares about integrity and merit).

                        Boxing is business first, entertainment 2nd and sport 3rd.

                        Caterall won but he won ugly with all that clinching. Who wants to watch that going forward? Taylor is the proven entertainer - so he is better for business.

                        The business of boxing got the winner it wanted tonight. Taylor can make some big fight nights at 147 going forward and he better fight a lot better than he fought tonight. Catterall can fight for one of the relinquished belts.
                        Exactly.. interesting points indeed. However, a W for catterall automatically garners entertainment value, like Kanbosos.
                        this shows great comp at 140 ncatterall will get another opportunity..I say Lopez fights JC

                            Skinny Bast Taylor lost that fight clearly, he was knocked down to add the cherry on top to Catterall's victory. Robbery of the highest order.

                                Can we agree that dodgy results are not all about DAZN from now on because that was blatant as F

                                    This stinks of Top Rank pulling weight yet again. Would love to hear how Bobby Arum and co spin this one.

                                        Catterall fought well. Taylor looked weight drained to me. Ridiculous decision.
