    Well, cruiser has notoriously been a stepping stone weight class with all the best heading up to heavy, might be the right place for a second title.

    oh he might well pick up a title there...but i doubt it actually most of the title holders at cruiser are hard punchers or extremely tough and think most of them beat him, if he faces one of em cleverly will have a second loss

    Well, that was quick. My internet packed up at the end of the first round, by the time I got the router restarted, it was all over. I guess its just building towards the Bellew rematch... inevitable really.

    On to Lee Selby.

    Selby has great variety but he needs to focus on making opponents pay, repeatedly not just sporadically.

    Hard to see anything but Selby cruising well ahead on points, but I do like the ref picking him up for holding the jabbing arm forward as a yardstick. It is one of my real bugbears in the ring.

    agreed with this he seems to fight in spurts and lose focus here and there

    I hear you but I think everyone has hyped Selby a bit too much whereas he knows he has a lot to learn. A couple of years away from his best was his assertion, with lots to learn with that attitude he will go a long way. ....and then he gets tagged :-)

    I think Sanigar and Borg are fairly realistic, and its probably a compromise between Hearn thinking he can match him to a world title bout, and the team around him knowning he wants to go in to win, not just to take the first title shot available. Seems like a good kid, hope he becomes number 12. However, I think Hearn's hopes that Selby can be the kind of charismatic headliner that brought Welsh fans in their tens of thousands like Calzaghe used to do may be a while away yet.

    Selby was having success with that short right hook to the ribs. Seems to have forgotten it.

    Fair play, Bellew does have the ego and the mouth of a multi weight world champion.

    It might just be me, but isn't Koasicha's cutman in the Doritos mariachi band?
