Has anyone read Sam Sexton's comments on the bbc website regarding this fight today? He at least had the common sense to look a bit sheepish in the post fight interview when he had Rogie sitting next to him, but I'm not sure Sexton's on the same planet as the rest of us!
"I felt in control all the way through the fight, I felt as though I was winning the rounds comfortably,"
"So he came out throwing everything, and we actually clashed heads, he caught me on top of my head and to be honest I saw stars."
In my mind, Rogan's eye had to lead to the fight being stopped, but to go out when Sexton has turned his back, refused to fight, and wasn't even looking at his opponent with his gumshield on the floor seconds earlier is the bugbear. That fight should have finished with Dave Parris waving his hands in front of Sexton, but the doctor when asked had no choice but to call it off. Didn't like Sexton's attitude beforehand, and I'm afraid I like it even less post fight.
