    No excuses made. He owned up to his loss. Good on him.

    Barroso is just better and wanted it more.
    He didn’t rush in, Davies was going backwards when Barroso clipped the chin.

        I like Ohara as a human being but, there are levels. I'd like to hope Ohara can regain a British or C/W title & maybe even try for the European but we've learnt his limit. Where was this 'kid' Barroso 10 or 15 years ago? It is this amazing story, like Archie Moore, or Jersey Joe Walcott, where a guy is ignored & demeaned for most of his career & then at the end is given a chance to shine. He can properly fight & he hits like one MoFo.

          He didn't step in when he shouldn't have, he stepped out too slowly without being warry of what could be coming at him.

            I can't lie , I'm glad that Barroso won , but I felt bad for this guy. He was all excited about his new contract , so happy to be working with ODLH , his childhood boxing hero , and SPLAT , he gets crushed in humiliating fashion in his big American debut. What a soul crusher. All he can do is learn whatever lesson he can from it.

                He didn't quit man, that's a common British trait but the loudmouth got up and wanted to fight he was just out on his feet. Good stoppage, it could've even been stopped after the first knockdown.

                  Tried to do what Anthony crolla did years ago but the thing was crolla held his guard high took alot of the shots on the gloves/half blocked shots and soaked it up why tiring barroso and breaking him down. Ohara just left his chin up in the air in the first exchange and got wiped out

                      Mostly yes, but he damn sure was wary. From the ring walk to the corner, he looked like “this was a mistake”.
