Shocking decision. It's to be expected in Belfast against a Roman Catholic Irish fighter. Crocker won two rounds 10-8 each and didn't win another round. Paddy won at least 9 but I would think 10 rounds. Unbelievable robbery. The punch stats will show at least 9 clear winning rounds to the Irish Catholic lad. The planter boy was very disappointing, I thought he was atrocious other than the lucky two knock downs.

eddie says the winners wins the eggie benn lottery, all eggies yokie fans will be cracking for a title shot

paddy will be shook, there was surely a few mil on the line for that fight there, im sure he would have taken it if the fight was in his spot, thats boxing101 right there

im sure its true but having said that didnt he recently want a fight with barrios & also was talking of a shakur fight at 147 and now eddie name dropping benn as an opponent for this title so im thinking it could be on

Don’t know why we’re scoring a fight to a guy because he got knockdowns instead of the guy winning basically all the other rounds apart from them.. Crocker was very lucky to get the decision there

but then again we have the eggie eubank rematch which makes the fight less likely of course

There were numerous low activity rounds where Donovan was mostly hitting the gloves and Crocker landed a few good shots. 6 rounds for Crocker isn't unreasonable.

The perennial victims, its 2025 don't be a bigot all your life. Now get to bed for your Pro-PallyWally walk tomorrow.

Felt like a draw to me. Donovan was hitting a lot of gloves and got knocked down twice by the same shot and STILL kept walking into it. He finally timed it and was able to better absorb it and turn it up in the last few rounds, but Crocker landed cleaner shots more often, plus the knockdowns.

Neither guy feels like championship material to me. Yay IBF.
