    This fight needs a flying armbar attempt.

    Interesting to see how the home crowd reacts to Paul Craig who has a bit of history with Stevie Ray (who they'll definitely get behind)

    Can't imagine either of those two lads earning a superfight against Anthony Joshua down the line.

    This whole drama turned me off Stevie Ray tbh, him wishing Craig to get knocked out because his feelings got hurt ages ago seems really pathetic to me.

    Just a side point - I wouldn't be surprised to see one or two early stoppages. After the death in Kentucky last night, I'm sure that's fresh in the minds of ref's.

    It'd be only human nature to be a bit more cautious. I can't say scientifically for sure but I felt there was a spike in early stoppages around the time of Carvahlo's death too.

    Though the Nash stoppage was a tad early, so you might be right.

    Craig has hardly thrown a punch the entire round?

    Craig seems to be just praying the fight ends up on the ground, he also petrified of taking a punch.

    What was up with him standing over Craig like that when he was out? Being a bit of an arsehole?

    Craig's stand up didn't improve a bit since the Pedro fight by the looks of it. Rountree seems a fool. Didn't watch his TUF season but going by what I've seen tonight he could do with getting KTFO.

    Savoring his handiwork I suppose, trolling the crowd too I guess.

    To me he looked like he was being pretty aggressive and giving it the big psycho act.

    Could be wrong though.

    That was the impression I got too. Missed his interview there was it mentioned or did he seem gracious at all?

    You could be right. Usually **** talk is over when the fight ends

    Wouldn't say gracious exactly, he is articulate and somewhat serious tho.

    Well either at he wouldn't want to get too carried away with himself after that. Craig was very poor

    Marshman always puts on a great fight in fairness to him. Some lovely strikes landed in that round.

    Jesus this fella Janes looks like he has insane cardio, not one deep breath.

    I'm thinking Marshman can't keep this pace up so Janes might take over if it goes to the 3rd.

    Good call.

    I'd score 2 rounds to one in favour of marshman though.
