Comments Thread For: Photos: Linares Stops Mitchell, Selby Unseats Gradovich

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Sensational Lee Selby produced a masterclass to clinch Evgeny Gradovich’s IBF featherweight title.

The fight was halted in the eighth, with the champion cut above his left eye due to a head clash, and the scorecards demonstrated Selby’s dominance up to that point – the Welshman winning a technical decision with scores of 79-73, 79-73, 80-72.

It was the best performance of Selby’s career so far (now 21-1), with the Barry boy continually picking off his relentless Russian opponent.

Mitchell...

Absolutely devastated. :wah1:

Mitchell is just a glass jawed joke.

The MexRussian gets a gash and a bum rush. Quick stop and new champ. Mitchell bleeds from both eyes, his mouth, his nose, and Linares still had to beat him down. Sometimes a home town advantage backfires.

Looks like they were great fights. Hopefully somebody posts them on youtube soon.

Heard Linares was putting it on Mitchell but was down on the cards losing virtually every round according to the judges. Good thing he got that stoppage.

It was close. I don't know how the judges had it, but neither guy was really putting it on the other until that last round when Linares got the stoppage.

Linares Offensively is a Top 5 P4P Talent, unfortunately his Chin and Skin is not durable but as seen in this fight when they do hold up he is tough to beat
