Think there is a flash knockdown coming in this round or the seventh

3-2 Catterall

For what it's worth i've not seen Taylor dominate a fight from start to finish. He always comes on strong in the second half of fights

[Doc_Piptorious]

49-46 to Catterall now for me.

Catterall landing far more cleanly than Taylor

Really good performance by Catterall considering he has never been in with anyone even close to Taylor's level before.

Catterall has spent the fight spoiling

He's getting a point deducted at some point.

I've got it 2-2 on my entirely unbiased scorecard

Definitely a case for that down the line. Taylor needs to be careful for hitting on the break. Ref has let it go though.

I have it 4-0 but there's a case for it being closer.

Catterall can't miss with the left hand at the moment.

All this build up about Josh Taylor being great, he's ****e so far

He is doing it very well and using it as part of an effective defence.

Is pretty much what Fury did against Wlad in many ways, using spoiling as both an offensive and defensive tool.

Adam Smith on Sky is a ****ing dildo

2 Southpaws always make things awkward. One is bad enough!

I love watching two southpaws going at it. Just always has a feeling of chaos when that happens and often leads to a really gritty contest.

Good watch so far.

Caterall doing very well and whilst Taylor is the more eye catching, Catrell's defence is just lovely and means most of the eye catching stuff Taylor is throwing is not doing a lot....so far.


Have Catterall ahead 29 - 28 after three rounds and he is edging the fourth round for me so far.

39-37 to Catterall after four rounds now for me.

Not much in the first 3 but I've given them all to Catterall. Judges could have it very different. I know Taylor likes it in the pocket but think it'd be prudent for him to fight tall for the next couple rounds.

[spud_gun]

Imagine being a mandatory challenger and fighting to be the undisputed champion.

That's some pretty good fortune.

Super Lightweight or Light Welterweight?

I've always gone with Light Welter

Is there a worse sport to watch live than boxing?
