So you want him to end up like Litzau and get knocked out instead of fighting a smart fight.Quote:

Round 7:
The corner trying to get Daws psyched up, he needs it. Tying up early on. Morrison with a pai of hooks connects. A nice left leaps up into Daws on the counter. Nice straight from Daws, but Morrison now starting to fight on the counter, as Daws looks to stay out of the tight stuff. Not working. Another hook from Morrison, and catches Daws again on the counter to the body. Nice jabs and uppercut from Morrison, Daws looks weary and frustrated at the moment.
Morrison takes yet another round.
70-64
Round 8:
Good rising hook from Morrison, he looks strong and fired up for this. Daws with his long shots arent doing much for Daws. Daws swings in the clinch, but weaker. Great combos fomr Daws. Massive hooks from Daws and Morrison looks very rocked and tired now, Daws must have caught Morrison with 7 or 8 big shots. Morrison lost his gumshield, gets a lucky break there. Morrison looking to tie on now, as Daws flows forward with some big hooks, Morrison's not protecting his head. More hooks from Daws, Morrison is exhausted.
What a round for Daws, must be a two pointer for me, as Morrison warranted an 8 count if he hadn't hjave lost the gumshield.
78-74 to Morrison - he may need that build up of round.
Round 9:
Cagier stuff from Morrison, he's got an eye on the final Bell. Daws with some hooks, but Morrison throwiung straights back at him. Nice hook from Morrison, Daws replies with a jab. More clinching now, but an uppercut from Morrison. Daws with a good straight , punches in the clinch. Good hooks from Daws and Morrison lunges, and misses, Daws refrains from hitting him on the back of the head. Morrison working hard, Daws looking classier now.
Tied Round for me.
88-84
Round 10:
Good flurry from Daws early doors. ;) Morrison's jabs are still strong. Daws with a good flurry.This is really getting competitive, Daws catching Morrison more now, but Morrison's punches are strong. Nice uppercut from Daws. Clenchin. Daws with some long shots. Good hook from Morison, Daws catches him on the way in. Daws with some hooks and straights, this is a really competitive round.
I'm not sure how to call it, and go the easy route down the middle.
98-84
Round 11:
Daws slow coming from the corner. Nice hook from Daws. Hooks replied by Morrison. Morrison cut on the nose, Daws takign over a little now, but Daws with a huge shot, and Morrison counters and clings on. Big right left hooks from Daws. Morrison looks done in, but throws punches back nonetheless, before clinching again. Morrison stumbles to the floor, but no knockdown, and he's hanging on again. Nice left from Daws, Morrison is hanging on like a limpet.
Daws round by a distance.
107-104
Round 12:
Morrison comes out with some hooks, then a flurry to the body, he's all or nothing now. Daws accurate with good hooks, Morrison clings on again. Daws the accurate shooter, but Morrison is hangin on. More hooks from Daws. Morrison is throwing, but not contacting. A good hook connects from Morrison. Body shot from Morrison, he's taking charge now, as they clinch once more. Daws tries to come forward, but hooks and jabs from Morrison. Big flurry from Morrison amd as he slumps into a clinch, he nearly falls from exhaustion! Great finish.
I have Morrison ahead by four rounds at the end.
Split Decision, 115-113 and 115-114 for Morrison, and one judge had it 117-112 for Daws.
Witter is trying to lure the big names into the ring. Is he going to get those names by being awkward and difficult to look good against?Quote:

Okay, that's it for me, I'm a little drunk, slightly tired, and a lot psyched for the Hatton fight, so here's the superheavy checking out ;)
yeah mate he took it at 9 days notice and was negitave as fuck... tainted his USA credibility bigtime that fight.Quote:

but he lives in Hattons shadow over here and its a shame really ;)
That was a strange performance from Daws and his corner to be honest. They seemed content to let early round slide safe in the knowledge that their man would come good in the end. They allowed the slide to carry on till half way which means Daws has to fight a prefect second half to draw level ???
Fair play to Morrison, soaked up what Daws had left and then pulled it out in the end, well deserved.
Great work mate and what a fight.... CC for you ;)Quote:

No one could seriously watch that fight and give credibility to how you could score this anywhere near the likes of that card.
Well done to Barry Morrison though!
yeah seemed a bit of a strange one ???Quote:

So let's hope that y'all were watching some of the undercard fights....because I thought Ashley Theophane looked pretty good against Alan Bosworth, and as the mandatoyry for Morrison defence, I reckon it would be a great fight, and their styles would slot very well with each other. Morrison comes forward with the big punches, and Theophane looked good off the back foot, and punched accurately and stayed out of the way.
Either way, if we get a Daws-Morrison rematch, or a Morrison-Theophane clash, I reckon we got plenty of domestic talent at light-welter, and some could go on for Commonwealth or European bouts.
