    The no crowd aspect really brings home how out of breath they do be when it’s break time, they’re breathing like they’ve just sprinted a mile

    And only 2 min rds

    Always felt this suits Katie..

    Katie needs to bring the right uppercut inside. Too focused on left hooks to body..

    Taylor breathing very heavily.
    She seemed to turn some decent power into those left hooks at the end of the round, but there was nothing on her right hand.
    She's very tired, although Persoon a little tired too.

    Persoon doesn’t respect her power at all. Or lack of it. Just marching forward.

    Katie caught her a great shot there but Persoon just shrugged it off.

    Think that ninth was Taylor's but she needs the final one now too.

    I put money on persoon because she was robbed int the last fight. If Katie can't beat her fair and square then she deserves to lose. As much as i want Katie to win. I can't see her beat this big ungainly persoon.

    5-4 to Persoon I think, you could argue a couple of rounds both sides tbh!

    This'll be tight on the cards but I've Katie shading it. Not as much as the previous fight but winning nonetheless.

    I thought that was a clear Taylor round, made Persoon miss a lot and landed quality counters.

    Think Katie might have nicked the final round there. No idea on the scores here.

    Sky lads giving it all to Taylor by the looks of it. Probably been three clear rounds in the fight. Katie much cleaner and a real boxer but can't hurt Persoon who just keeps walking forward

    I can’t separate them.
    Neither deserves to lose, neither did enough to win.


    Draw I reckon.
