Metcalf took a beating in the 4th round but somehow does well in the 5th.

Metcalf has taken over the fight after the bad 4th round and rocked Cheeseman in the 7th. Good fight so far.

He is one tough unit.
I'd actually live to see him Push on and take it now.

Cheeseman wins the 9th at last so have him 5-4 up. Very good close fight.

What times main event

Very close going into the last

No its not
DAMN!!!!

fucking good fight that was, both putting it all on the line, well done Cheesehead

Excellent fight and Cheeseman stops Metcalf in the 11th in a war. Both fighters showed bags of heart and courage.

Cracking fight that!

Hats off to both fellers.

Well done Cheeseman.

Well Cheeseman - Metcalf was a war!! Great dust up.
Feel bad for Metcalf though, he did well to get back into that fight!

Some real stones from Metcalf there but fair play to Cheeseman for the finish.

Majorly impressive from Cheeseman

He may well have...
That was a classic British title fight we just witnessed.

Wardley-Molina up now

Molina landing right hands against Fabio which is not a good sign.

Fabio's hands low and in his pockets will catch up to him some day. Lot's of bouncy nervous energy.

Quite a downer after Cheeseman Metcalf.
Messy finish. Wardley takes too many shots to use that style..

Well that was a bit of a shit show. Wardley was getting picked off at times there. Not really seeing anything from him to say he'll make waves in the division though.

Think Gorman would plough through Wardley.

Seems like a little bit of a spaz trying to do too much all at once, bit all over the place. But fair play good to take an honest heavyweight shot, get rocked and polish off a grizzled war horse at early stage. Lot's of work to do.

I thought that was a trip and Molina was too fat to get up. Fabio is the Johnny Nelson of the heavyweights. Talks a good fight and will be a good commentator when he retires.

Yeah I guess he will tighten up as he moves up in class. Molina was a decent name for this stage, but he seemed to give up there more than got caught with anything significant to put him down and out.

While it lasts, if you're scoring the main event, get this link open in another tab! :box:

Who are these two UK announcers? Honestly sound much more level and less fanboy than the crew used for Stateside Dazn ;D.

Povetkin looked like he staggered to the ring. Whyte looks to have some nervous energy during the intros...
Think Whyte will clean him out within 4 or 5.

On Sky it is the ex boxer Mathew Macklin co commentating.

Matthew Macklin -Adam Smith

Povetkin on shaky legs in the first round but not from a big punch from Whyte. Povetkin looks shot and old.

1 nil Whyte.

What was with Povetkin's legs during that first?

I don't think he was actually that hurt?

Whyte jabbing and moving well in the 2nd to win the round. Povetkin eye swelling up.

2 nil

Sign of a shot fighter?

My god Whyte throws like a grizzly bear. Golf ball forming under Povetkin s eye.

Pov is knackered after 2...Whyte seems very edgey...he's always looked wild at times....he's taking the rounds.

Whyte hurts Povetkin with huge right hands in the 3rd.

3 nil

That's actually what I had thought during the first fight - a couple of times.

I think physically he's massively faded, he's just living on years of experience.
