I was looking for a link to the fight but came up empty. :(
Just setting down to watch appleby on setanta now. What an overhaul they have undertaken with their online service man. Absolutely spot on. Bargain for 8 quid a month. Plenty of boxin.
Pplby really struggled in the first, started to get into it a little more in the second. Still takin a lot of shot though.
Thrid, applby applied the pressure and started finding range and pushin his man back
4th round now
Appplby lands a tremendous right left.
and applby is gettin absolutely slammed against the ropes proper turn around again.
looked like applby was totally done then and its levelled out.
I'm not doin a very good job of this rnd by rnd thing, just thought i'd have a pop seen as CutMeMick mentioned it.
Mouse appeared under the eye of lindesy but applby has blood i think comin from the nose and maybe a cut lip by the way he's lickin the inside of it.
both trade shots towards the end of r4
r5 start
awesome little battle this,50/50 here.Round 6 now!
Your doing fine magicman...
Cheers! for that.
Applby is takin some serious shots now in r6
big lefts and right hooks
"WOW!":oAppleby stopped in round six!What desire Lindsay fought really well!Appleby looked drained and his guard was really open!
i taste a big Rematch here!
awesome action!!!!
All over, lindsey continued to land big shots, applby hung on for dear life on the ropes and looked to be saved by the ref. Started again and applby was hit with a couple of solid shot and the ref stops the fight. Lindsey by tko.
Apart from rd3 and poss the atart of 4 applby looked way out of it honestly. Lindsey really smashed him up. Early in the second you could see appleby really didn't fancy the shot he was takin
Gotta apologise for some drib drab comments there. I'll leave it for someone else next time.
What a tremndous turn around from setanta though i gotta say. I don't know whether anyone watched that online but the quality of picture is super, and fullscreen at that.
Think Bunce is gonna pop a blood vessel rantin again. Wish they would change him for someone else man.....
Hell of a fight, I thought it was quite even & had Appleby just ahead going into 6, although scoring that fight was pretty pointless.
Hope Appleby can come again, he totally lost his head in this fight. Again, I'm alone in enjoying Bunce's ranting :-\
Wow...
Appleby was favorite Am I correct?
From fightnews...
In an all-action brawl between two undefeated featherweights, Belfast-native Martin Lindsay (14-0, 6 KOs) scored the biggest win of his career by stopping the reigning British champion Paul Appleby (14-1, 9 KOs) in the sixth round. Lindsay looked strong with his hard and precision punching in the first two stanzas. Appleby cam back strong in the third rocking slightly fading local hero on several occasions. Round four was as brutal as they are with Lindsay being just a bit more active in the back-and-forth two-way massacre. Round five was for the champion. In round six, Martin Lindsay increased his tempo and started to land his punches at will. After the series of left and right hooks Appleby was pinned to the ropes, barely made it to the center of the ring only to be brutalized once again with the monsterous right hand of Lindsay prompting referee to stop the contest at 2:36 of the round six. Appleby is still to be decked in his career though
Great scrap, very entertaining. But imo to many good prospects from the uk just want to get invloved in a fight to much rather than a boxing match. I think Lindesy has some great skills but fighting like that will get him nowhere, Appleby will come again and will be involved in some more domestic scraps.
it dont surprise me to be honest, never really rated appelby
Happy for Martin, obviously means a lot to him.
Defo was a great fight. All the entertainment needed in the run up to froch. I just can't help thinking that guys like that are always gonna be domestic bust-ups. Can't see lindsey, or appleby for that matter, gettin anywhere near Luevano, Conception or Juarez in the future and no where near John.... But i guess who knows. Lindsey is promoted by booth/hayemaker, they are gettin plenty of hype at the mo so who knows what opportunity lindsey could get.Quote:

Sorry BG.......I'm in between laptops at the moment, and my desktop is upstairs away from the TV, so it makes it hard for the RBR's. I'll have to have a look and see what I can arrange when my next bonus comes through (in the May pay packet).Quote:

Good learning fight for both , really not sold on Appleby but I thought he'd be stronger , the plaudits go to a magnificent Martin Lindsay a tremendously classy young man with a bright future.
