youl'l probbably win ICB just like Colin won the 4th round with a good right hand and Tolppola is just not throwing much.

40-36 Colin lynes.

Round 5:

Tolppola caught on the way in with a right. Tolppola is being constantly caught with the jab, which is Lynes' best weapon. Decent right hook from Lynes, then a couple to the body. Right hook from Lynes. Tolppola finds the range a little with two jabs, but no menace on them. Good jab and straight right from Lynes. Lynes landing almost everything he throws to the bdoy then upstairs. Right hook, but Tolppola comes back with a left to the body then a right hook which lands nicely. They close and start swinging, Lynes landing up top and Tolppola to the body. Lynes with a couple more body shots, and another right hook.

Lynes shutout, but Tolppola looks like he'll go to the later rounds at least.
50-45

This fight is getting boring IMO as Colin is winning every round with more sheer agression and throwing more and Tolpolla is just AWFUL with a good chin.

50-45 lynes.

Round 6:

As always, its fairly cagey in the first segment of the round, then LYnes lands a nice right to the body. Lynes claiming centre ring, and pops the jab, then to the body. Tolppola works to the body, but his shots still look long and loopy. Lynes with the jab, then covers up well with a couple of Tolppola hooks upstairs. Lynes working well still, with a firm left hook landing nicely, and the jab with good work. Gets caught by a Tolppola on the way in, but ploughs through with a couple of hooks. More jabs from Lynes.

Lynes 60-54

UD seems like a great bet!

I think this could end in a late stoppage say rnd 11/12 as Tolppola is just F****** standing there throwing naff all.

Lynes winning a complete shutout so far 60-54.

Round 7:

Lynes out of the corner early, Tolppola looking disheartened. Lynes' trainer Paul Cook says Lynes needs to put more pressure on, which seems fair. Lynes jabbing well, and poppin some hooks. Tolppola with a nice right hand backing Lynes up. Tolppola coming forward once again, but Lynes lands a hook in reply to Tolppola's. Two hooks to the body rom Tolppola, but ships a hook and a jab at the same time. Lynes circling his prey now, with Tolppola looking for more aggression. Body shot from Lynes. another flurry of hooks to the body, and Lynes still the dominant force. Jabs well again and again. Tolppola pushes Lynes to the ropes, and lands an overhand right.

Lynes. Again.
70-63

I'll go back on my word a UD will happen.

Round 7......just exactly the same textbook boxing and I'm getting bored!!!

70-63

Round 8:

Looks like Tolppola is on the way to another failed challenge for the European title. This is a boxing masterclass, but not holding too much excitement really. Lynes working well mixing jabs and hooks to the body. Left hook from Lynes, then a body shot. Tolppola isn't troubling Lynes at all, even when he does land his best punch, the right hook. Lynes jabbing well, and Tolppola already looks like he's waiting for the final bell. Tolppola rushes into a clinch. Firm jab, and this fight is starting to stagnate a little. Lynes landing good hooks to the body, upstairs and jabs, but Tolppola looks very resilient. Nice jab and straight right from Lynes. Tolppola with a left hook to the back/side of the head.

Lynes again.
80-72

Rhun don't you find this depressing ??, I'd rather watch Cory Spinks.


80-72 Lynes same again, Colin outboxing his opponent and his opponent throwing little or nothing back.

Round 9:

We're into the final third here. Lynes still able to win from distance with fine jabs and right hands. Tolppola lunges in, finding the guard with a right, then clinching. Lynes working the body. Straight right pierces Tolppola's guard. Left to the body, then a good left hook lands flush. Tolppola unfazed it seems. More body shots from Lynes. flurry from Tolppola, and a short rigbht lands nicely on Lynes chin. Body shots from Lynes, and the jab is relentless. Clinch, then a great jab straight right from Lynes. Tolppola comes in with two body shots and a hook, and Lynes fires back. Good finish.

Lynes 90-81. Tolppola's a trier, but he needs a lot or bingo punches that seem very unlikely.

Floyd Mayweather v Carlos Baldomir repeat here.

Same again Lynes with the accuracy and work rate and has stuck with the job from the start.

(That was taken from Jim Watt as i didn't know what to say)

90-81 Lynes to a snoozefest UD

Round 10:

Tolppola showing a little more ambition coming forward, and he shows the power of a guy who has started his career fighting amongst the flyweights. He may have bulked up but the power isn't really there. Lynes jabbing and landing hooks efficiently, and doing exactly what a boxer ought to do. Hitting, and not getting hit. Good left hook from Lynes, but Tolppola takes it and keeps coming. As for your question Lee, I gotta admit I think it is a problem with the replacement opponent, rather than with Lynes himself. He's doing all he can, boxing well, but Tolppola has a granite chin and not many skills, so Lynes can't really do much more. A lot more action in this round, with Tolppola coming forward again with some rights landing, but Lynes is doing the work in each round to win each one.

100-90 Lynes.
