That was a good fight! Judges got it right imo.

Cracking fight , anyone who hasn’t seen it yet - go watch it ! Particularly the last two rounds!

Cracking high quality fight. Fair play to Fitzgerald for going into the favourites backyard and getting the win.

Dammit. My stream folded at round 5 and I was seeing that Fowler was far from comfortable considering his 1/8 odds and Fitzgerald looked like he had a plan and was sticking to it. Fowler is ******ly overhyped and his overconfidence was 100% bluff.

Probably the best fight of 2019 so far. Great, high quality fight. The rematch will be great.

Now that was how a fight between 2 unbeaten prospects should play out. Everyone watching must have been thinking the same at the end of the 9th, "Fowler's going to regret wasting all that energy with no knock-down". Small margins at this level.

Good fight. Fitzgerald got his tactics right and deserved the win.

Great fight, would love to see the rematch. Fowler loaded up way too much in the first few rounds, went for in the 9th and came up short. Well done to Fitz.

This is what happens when you match prospects early on. Is Fowler’s career really hurt by the loss? No. Love to see more of these fights rather than the usual “marination”.

You could tell they don’t like each other, you could tell they didn’t want to lose their “0”
