    Tg4
    Interviewer: where do you go from here? Have you your eyes on the main event tonight?

    Victor: eh, that's two weights below me.

    Really good fight.
    Right man got it, but it was very close.

    Something that didn't cross my mind but Macklin is right, Fowler is a Middleweight. He boxed at 75kg in the Olympics. To suddenly drop 11lbs in you're late 20's and feel comfortable just doesn't sound right. I doubt it makes a difference in the grand scheme of things.

    I agree. It's not healthy, especially not having done it for years.

    Jesus, I always love watching Sam Eggington fight, irrespective of the result.

    He's so bloody honest.

    Fowler debuted as a pro at 157.5 and has never weighed any more than that in his pro career. Fitzgerald is actually the heavier man.

    Hope he retires after this though, not nice to see him taking so many clean shots.

    Can't believe Eggington is only 25!

    I know where you're coming from, but he's still only 25 and I certainly think he can compete at British title level, so why stop?

    Smith is levels above him.

    McAfee was tailor made for Eric really. Made him look like Lomachenko. Lovely finish.

    I actually thought he was closer to 30! Didn't realize he was still relatively young so retirement talk a bit premature alright.

    The Spanish lad Kerman Lejarraga who recently beat Bradley Skeete and Frankie Gavin just got absolutely hammered by David Avanesyan

    That Lejarraga never impressed me. Frankie Gavin was soundly outboxing him till he gassed after like 3 rounds..

    No wonder Josh Kelly ducked Avanesyan

    all the we said 10 not 12 rounds and "illness" carry on, his arse went.
