Anyone watching this one now?
Oh well. Ekondayu - McKewan was a messy but good opener. Very close IMO.
Well upset, favourite out, Larry Akindayu through. Spencer Fearon will be chuffed.
Ekindayu/Akindayu. I shall call him Larry from here in.
Carruthers- Vaughan in quarter final 3 is a full on war. Both doing their damndest to get the £2000 KO bonus.
2 dodgy decisions leading up to that 1.but that wos a gd wee scrap if not great boxing
Ronery.
So Ronery.
Terry Carruthers goes through.
SF 1 Larry through to the final. Great performance.
@katfight your friend Nav up next in semi final 2 . He already dealt well with a guy trying to take his head off so should be able to outbox Carruthers.
How wrong you were beanz...absolutely made up for Carruthers...he's been matched against a lot of up and comers, and never comes to cover up. Really deserved that one, he ain't the kind of boxer who'll make big waves over 12 rounds, but he's just so persistent and difficult to avoid over the 3 round distance. Think he may give the other fella some trouble in the final.
Well, at least I can help you not just be talking to yourself!
Your right Rhun. Cant begrudge Carruthers he fought his heart out. Just feel a bit bad that I may have jinxed Katfight's mate though. I fancy Larry in the Final though. He has shown some great stuff tonight for such a novice.
No doubt Larry looks well suited to an elusive boxing style, similar to Ajose Olusegun, but Carruthers is willing to take one, two and three shots to get inside so he can unload a five or six punch flurry, and it'll be interesting to see how Okundayo deals with it.
Great finish from Larry, and Carruthers really was out on his feet, facing the ropes and the stoppage was right. You can tell that he's been doing a lot of sparring and has plenty of amateur pedigree.
He was a revelation. I'd stick him straight in against Brian Rose. Fearon must be licking his lips.
We were there , Nav did great
I think he just nicked the 3rd round from Carruthers
Boxing is a skill
if u win fights on heart and determination I fancy my chances against Amir Khan cus that's one fight I'd be determined to win
Anyway can't argue with decision on the night what's done is done
Nav has now been given a showcase I'm so pleased for him
Keep listening for his name :)
And Fearon is asking coldwell for David Barnes for Ekundayo

Mansouri vs. Carruthers Rematch on Deck Says Coldwell - Boxing News
I actually really enjoyed this prizefighter. I think Carruthers can keep on improving, you watch him in the eubank jnr fight and he did pretty well in that too. I will keep notice on these two in the future it was good.
Yeah I did
Tbh I don't think either need a rematch
What's the point ? over 6 rounds Carrathers wouldn't last he was wobbled twice in the last round
Nothing against Carruthers at all but don't believe he will go much further
yes i agree theres no point in a rematch, but id still watch it if it happens
It's defiantly happening feb at Magna in Rotherham
I'll b ringside ( dnt know if it'll make tv though) ill video the rounds if they don't nd get it put it up
I can c y Nav wants to avenge his loss and suppose it'll look better on his record.
