Paulie knows the boxing game. Even if he does have a machine-gun mouth

Love that leading right hand that Brook has, bang on the target.
Yeah, not heard him commentate before he's far better than the usual SS dross. I often stick it on mute, especially if it's not live.

Gavin has come to hang on rather than win, just doesn't have anything to trouble Brook.
Think Brook will wear him down and stop him towards the end.

Did the ref really just let Brook push Mitchells head down with his left then uppercut him with his right three times in a row?
Soldato
That will come soon, maybe this round coming up.

Too easy.

The point of that fight was?

Gavin just came to park the bus and get a payday, isn't in the same ballpark as Brook.
Get Khan V Brook on that's a fight people want to see, be better than seeing Khan get dominated by Mayweather anyway!

I don't see Mayweather fighting Brook.

He will just run round the ring and hug him..

What a genuine guy he seems to be. I like his motivation and he's making the right decision I think. I hope he isn't too hard on himself though, AJ could potentially unite the HW division - there's no shame in losing to someone that talented.
Na i agree after watching it you do get a sense of how is really is for his family etc so no hope he isn't too hard on himself.
Soldato
Hope he keeps to his word and enjoys his retirement, hate to see a fighter go on as a shadow of his former skills just to be a punchbag for some tiny payday (I'm looking at you Danny Williams)

A good interview with Eddie Hearn about Khan V Brook fight is out there. Can't link to it as it has swearies. Just google "what is Khan excuse for not fighting Kell Brook"

Utterly ridiculous mismatch tonight. As much as I like Paul Smith, he's gonna get destroyed by a man that has already taken out Froch.

Agreed, Paul Smith seems like a genuinely nice guy who everyone wants to see do well but that fight was a joke. Looked not much more than a sparring session for Ward although I was a bit excited in the 7th round.
Paul looks really out of shape as well, not sure what's going on there? Have been meaning to seek out his post-fight comments, he's not normally one to beat around the bush. Last night showed that he's far from the top and I'm glad that his corner threw the towel in. First time I've seen a full Ward fight, he looks like an absolute beast. Need to watch some of his previous fights, must have been a war with Froch.
Broner v. Porter was pretty poor too, Broner comes across as a grade A ****. I could put up with it if he backed it up with being the bees knees in the ring but Porter made him look very average. Not to mention the ref let him get away with a lot.
Did anyone watch Wilder defend his title last week or so ago? It was the first fight of his that I've seen and it wasn't as amazing a performance as the highlights that I've seen from his previous fights. I reckon Joshua will pwn him once he's gained a bit more experience.
