    Yiget busting up Hughes in the 8th. Classy southpaw shots body and head.

    Closer round this time but Yiget wins it by landing better shots.

    Hughes giving a good effort. Yigit turning it up a gear.

    Yiget controlling the fight now and should cruise to victory. Hughes looks lost and run out of ideas.

    7-3 yiget

    Yiget taking the centre of the ring and pushing Hughes back.

    Hughes must go forward and attack not box on his back foot. He must be tired.

    8-3

    Yiget throwing loads of punches and could have stopped Hughes if he had power.

    9-3 in my book.

    Hughes hangs on to hear the final bell. Should be wide for Yigit.

    Commentators bias for Hughes but I give it to Yiget.
    Just a bit more on this, the dude suffers from some kind of Erbs Palsy, his right arm is 3 inches shorter than the left.
    There is more to it than just having a shorter arm, he can't turn his fist to throw an uppercut, he can't lift his arm to throw a hook, he can throw a straight but doesn't get any power on it at all, the Erbs Palsy also stops (or reduces) muscle growth so his left arm isn't only longer but its visibly bigger as well.

    I only watched the first few rounds and whilst Hughes deserves massive props for getting himself into a European title fight it struggled to hold my attention, he has to fight exclusively with the left hand.

    If it wasn't for the interest factor of his weird right arm anyone would have just looked at it and thought he isn't very good, it might be harsh but from what I saw the fight wasn't very good.

    Again though fair play to the dude.

    Hughes did well at the start but because of what you described has to fight non-stop for 12 rounds against the top opposition to win. He gave a good account of himself and did well not to get stopped at the end of the fight.

    Yes its remarkable. Joe Hughes did well against Catteral and unlucky not to get nod over Nurse. With his disability this is an unbelievable achievement. How good could he have been if fighting on a level playing field?
