    How did he look?

    Comfortable. Don't know the opponent but he wasn't much. Tommy landed some good shots but without knowing the opponent it's hard to know his power in the pro game. I think to be honest McGee was happy to get rounds under tommys belt.

    Deliberate headbutt? Or just accumulation?

    Didn't see it as deliberate, not as deliberate as some of the low blows by Nieto!

    Deliberate headbutt seems to be the decision, Daws DQ'd, scuffle breaking out in the crowd.

    How the hell can he call that a deliberate headbutt for a DQ?!

    Ref has had a mare here

    Confusing ending to the Lenny Daws fight.
    I think the Spaniard won by DQ.
    If so, Daws can have no complaints, he was warned often enough, even though the final head clash seemed accidental.

    He has certainly got this wrong imo anyway

    It must be accumulation, because he warned Daws numerous times throughout.

    I wouldn't heed Richie Woodhall's comments as he's always unashamedly biased towards British fighters.

    Just saw it now and have to say I don't think it was particularly premature.
    Quillan was badly hurt, wobbling all over the place, so the ref made a decision that I don't feel was bad.
    Quillan was badly hurt for the second time after seeming to recover from the initial fusilade and did awfully well not to go down after staggering halfway across the ring. Pretty good reason to stop it in my eyes.


    Just saw a replay there and Quillan's eyes are completely glassy. Correct call ref.

    Must also mention how classy both guys were in their post-fight interviews.
    Nice to see.
