Round 2:

Good start for Napa, and Moffett can't win if it stays like this, with both men covering up, then exchanging blows, barely moving around the ring. Moffett shooting from a little further away now, with jabs, then they go back to trading body shots. They move more in the first 30 seconds here than in the first fround. Back to the same pattern though, with Napa the more accurate, and the more likely to land hooks upstairs. Three good left hooks from Napa, but a right hand from Moffett knocks Napa backward catching him off guard. Uppercut and body shots from Napa. Left hook from Moffett, but Napa landing some nice hooks once again, and an uppercut. Right hook from Napa, and they're back to standing in front of each other and trading. Good body shot and big right hook from BNapa. Right hooks, and Moffett already taking punishment.

Napa's at a canter.
20-18

Round 3:

Moffett's corner calling for more head movement. Damn right. Uppercut from Napa, then another. Body shot and another from Moffett, but Napa with a body shot and a hard left up top. Good right hook again from Napa, and his punches seem the more damaging. Left to the body from Moffett, but two right hooks take him flush in the face. Body shots from Napa, then a sharp straight right. Left hook, two body shots andanother left hook from Napa. Moffett lands a left hook, but he's taking a lot of shots already. First clinch of the bout. Napa unloading body shots.

Napa again, and Moffett is one dimensional.
30-27

Round 4:

More of the same? Colour me unsurprised. Napa moving and jabbing early on in this round. Landing four or five, before Moffett closes the distance with a body shot, but Napa with a hook upstairs, then another body shot. Apparently Moffett is in the best shape of his career. Well, its to be expected for a British title fight (with the exception of Danny Williams. They're back to standing and trading, and although Moffett has more success to the body, Napa is doing more work with better accuracy. Left hook from Napa, then a counter uppercut. They swap left hooks, then Moffett dodges a few shots. Good uppercut and a right hook catch Moffett flush. Right over the top from Moffett, but left hooks from Napa are landing every time.

40-36 Napa.

Round 5:

Napa out of the corner early. Good overhand right from Napa, but Moffett comes in with a few shots, but eventually it goes back to the same pattern of Napa leaning on the ropes and countering well, mixing body shots and hooks up top, which look good but don't seem to shift Moffett much. Moffett with a body shot, but takes a couple of hooks upstairs. The action moves to the centre ring, as Moffett starts giving ground, and a few hooks up top make Moffett clinch. Two right hooks up top, but Napa backs off to the ropes again. Right hooks are going in time and again,and Napa can't seem to miss. Left hook from Moffett, but two body shots take the wind from Moffett.

Napa 50-45

Round 6:

Quick beer change and I'm back on the couch. Napa moving and countering, with a good overhand right, but Moffett forces him back into the corner, and works hard to the body, then lands a decent left hook, but is taking some still, even in this, the best period of the fight for him. Body shot and left hook. Napa misses a right, but gets two to the body, then a good right hook. Body shot from Napa, then a good right, left hook, and Moffett stumbles back a little. Good hooks, and a body shot bands Moffett over a little. Moffett lands a left hook, but Napa didn't blink, sending a left hook back of his own with a bit more venom. Short right hooks are doing the business for Napa, and anohter, before Moffett lands a gentle left.

60-54 Napa, no way anyone has itany other way.

Round 7:

McCrory generously gives Moffett a share of the last one. Not in my book. Napa circling and jabbing, but as usual goes back to the ropes. Overhand right from Napa is blocked, and they trade landing right hooks. Body shot and a left hook from Moffett, but again takes a right from Napa, who jabs twice then slides to the left. Napa showboating a little more now, but takes a body shot as Moffett walks him down. Left hook from Moffett, but Napa puts in a body shot. Two hard uppercuts to the sternum from Napa, and moves away to jab some more, before dodging and countering a lovely right hook. Uppercuts in close from Napa, and although he takes a left, lands a showy right. Napa tries to move, but Moffett holds him in the corner, not that its helping him much.

Napa 70-63

Round 8:

Apparently Nicky Booth is thinking of a comeback. Anyhoo....Nappa's back to the jab and move..the Dappa man groove. But once again after a few seconds retreats to his corner and his defensive guard, and trades with Moffett, landing better accurate hooks and body shots than the tireless Belfast boy can. Uppercuts from Napa, and a good right hook. Napa backing off and looking to load up. Well, as much as a man with 1 KO can load up. Moffett is walking forward. Two good body shots from Napa, and Moffett sags, before throwing back a decent left hook of his own. Upperctu to the body from Napa, and a left hook as he's missing from Naap throws Moffett off balance and stumbles a little. Left from Moffett to the body, but takes a right up top.

Napa. 80-72. If Moffett gets a share of anything on the cards so far I'll be surprised.
