Maybe he didn't bother with defence because of this fight?

A boxer should always worry about defense.

I don't feel he ever does though I suppose you can get away with it at that level.

I can't see him going much further he has a lot of real bad flaws in my eyes. He digs to the body well, big at the weight but I'm not impressed by him.

[Uncle Rodge]

Selby was very impressive. Superb body work. Timing, speed, power. Kid's got a bright future!

since when do they warn fighters for showboating...?

yeah, bollocks int'it. fusty old british propriety sticking its nose where it's not wanted again.

[NEETzsche]

Lindsay would be pretty decent if he had some power, he's thrown and landed some really nice shots. Feather fists renders all of that pointless though.

some of his past fights (matthews and appleby spring to mind) would suggest that he's not feather fisted at all, actually.

[southpaw_07]

He is fookin' massive though. That said........bit of a ****.

Jesus Christ Selby has fawking horrific defense!

thats Brandon Rios right there

Come on, lacking defence and being big doesn't make him Rios. He fights nothing like him.

Yeah I thought that.

I was of the opinion that he could punch a little bit - Selby is just an awfully big man at the weight and ate shots like they were biscuits.

How did Proksa look? I missed it.

nothing new, nothing fancy, he seemed to hurt his left hand and barely use it for the most of the fight.

Let's hope not, he got a FNF coming up this month doesn't he?
