McDonagh offered him out with 1 hand after the fight, after pulling out because of a shoulder injury. ???

Really frustrated as a fan and for Jr. 7 months out, wanted to see his progress, he looked good from the few minutes we saw.

Can't see ITV doing another Box Office event. The WBSS has been pretty crap throughout, multiple injuries and delays.
Friday night fight in Saudi with almost no promotion.

Cannot compete with Matchroom or BT in any way.

Why is it in such a random location?

Atmosphere zero.

They're really trying to flannel this out - shit, the fight finished early, wheel out Naseem and Evander!
Feel sorry for anyone who actually paid for a ticket, they can't even get pissed up in between fights!!

I can’t understand why itv have not promoted this more I would have had both fighters on breakfast tv over last couple of weeks and free to air build up shows this week surely could add significant increase in buys

Smith falls over a lot.
Groves down and not getting up.
Pretty sure Smith hit him on the ground?! Is this MMA now? Ref should have stopped it sooner imo.
