i thought eastman would have beaten his oppenent comfortably tonight, but credit to ashira who showed alot of determination.
Yup, I probably wouldn't have grumbled if Eastman had a point deducted for the grabbing of the leg, which happened twice, and to me even once ought to be a point deduction. In reality Eastman still deserved to win the fights just about, but Ashira showed the same kind of guts as he did against Calzaghe, but this time with much more forward movement.

Better fight than i thought it would be though

His dreds coming loose then being drenched with water betwwen rounds was making some of Ashiras misses look good
Can't see him getting a world title shot, but if Amin Asikainen vacates to go for bigger things, I dont see a problem with Eastman challenging for the belt in a final hurrah. Or even a bout against Asikainen would not be bad for him.
