    I don't think anyone believes he can be world-level.

    But it would be great to see him swinging with Carson Jones.

    British referees need more common sense. Cosme was not in any real danger in there and he wasn't gonna get stopped.

        I see Danny O'Connor beat Evangelou again. Good fight?

            Bit lackluster for the first half but it picked up in the second half, around round 7 or 8.

              Not sure Jones is on a different level to Purdy.

              They're both fairly rudimentary. It would be a great T.V. fight while it lasted.

                If anybody was getting stopped late I actually feel it would of been Purdy. He has a bad gas tank and Rivera was getting stronger and hurt Purdy a few times.

                I guess we'll never know now but that was actually brewing into a good fight. Damn these British refs & Drs!

                  This guy George Groves is facing is unbelievable. He got seemingly knocked out by a punch that missed!

                  Hes an Argie though & like most he has some power but I think this should be easy work with Groves stopping him in the first few rounds.

                    Thanks Dan. I thought the first bout could have gone either way.

                      Would have won me a tenner!

                      Someone needs to tell Groves to stop wearing suits. He looks like he is wearing his dad's clothes or something.

                      Good Chelsea boy though and a nice fella it seems!
