    As much as I l respect Fowler's power and pedigree, I really don't warm to him. I managed to back Fitz on points at 15/1 which is ridiculous value. I also told a few of my friends who are casuals to tune in for this one. It's nice when you big up a fight and it surpasses expectations. A great fight and a great evening of British dust ups.

      Superb fight, very nice contrast of styles. Can't believe Fitz risked the decision going the other way when he had Fowler so badly hurt

        Not sure if you're UK based or not so this may not work..

        I've used atdhe and cricfree amongst others for the past few years and they've both got progressively worse. I recently got introduced to VIPbox.live, if you haven't heard of it then give it a try. I find that there's no lag, minimal ads (even with adblock) and the quality is always prime.

          Great call! Especially on those 15/1 odds. I follow the uk scene. I never was blown away by Fowler. I wasn’t rooting against him but something told me tonight was the night. I’m happy another kid on the uk scene could pick him off. Hell of a fight. They put on for their cities. Fitz business just picked up. His next fight will be meaningful

            I agree. Good fight. Props to Eddie Hearn and DAZN. They have taken a lot of heat recently. For 9.99 a month, they are doing a great job. Enjoyed the Liam Smith fight as well!

              I was concerned by the fact that Terry O'Connor was scoring the fight as one of the judges. He scored the Joe Hughes - Davies Jr 110-118 earlier in the night which is ridiculous.

              Despite both Fitz and Fowler being 'Matchroom Fighters', Fowler was definitely the promotional A-side. Im just glad he wasnt robbed and got the credit he deserved.

              A great fight.

                Definitely overhyped.

                I think Fitzgerald was being overlooked too, considering the odds. He was actually a very good amateur and unbeaten as a pro. I did think Fowler might beat him, but the odds were way too wide when you consider Fowler had only beaten some journeymen.

                  I was on first row sports then tried Viprow which is the sister of Vipbox, all of them started then froze after round 5. A lot of these sites are getting worse. I'll try that adthe in future. Cheers, Bob!

                    Considering how evenly matched they were, how they came up with those odds is a bit crazy. There was some serious cash to be made there. Just wish I'd done my homework.

                      The fact that you added the O’Connor was factor, who is well known for his “scorecards” makes this even more remarkable. I’ve only seen Davis a handful of times. I’m in nyc, so I’m going to watch that. Great bet big dog.
