My leading observation from tonight’s card so far is that Felix Cash looks like Guy Pearce
Lolll I thought the exact same thing
Keeping an eye on Cyrus Pattinson. I don’t think he’s going to be a great fighter, but I definitely think he’s going to be in some GREAT fights. Throws punches in bunches, excellent combinations, but doesn’t hit particularly hard and is there to be hit.
Felix Cash is the 10th round is the most cowardly thing I’ve seen in a boxing ring in a long time. He should have absolutely been disqualified for the endless holding, he doesn’t get to decide that there’s no 10th round because he got knocked down. But his chin is tissue paper, so he has no choice.
Ellie Scotney got a gift. Lucky the fight was in the UK.
