Interesting take, there wasn't a commentator or ex-professional for either 5 live, sky sports or anyone i have seen subsequently interviewed that saw the fight live who thought that Josh Taylor won that fight, most were in absolute disbelief at the decision. Ben Davidson, Josh Taylors trainer told him in the corner that he needed a knock-out, Ben Shalom the promoter of the fight called it an embarrassment, even Carl Frampton who is a mate of Josh Taylor thought he lost the fight and was disgusted with the decision.

Yes , i heard him say that too , and as Taylor didnt achieve that ,therefor , his corner considered it a lost fight
Worst decision ever !

The British Boxing Board of Control will investigate the scoring in Josh Taylor's split decision win over Jack Catterall on Saturday.

Scot Taylor, 31, retained his WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO light-welterweight belts against the 28-year-old Englishman.

But many onlookers at Glasgow's OVO Hydro believed Catterall should have been declared the new world champion.

The BBBoC said it "will be investigating the scoring of this contest and will advise accordingly".

The board does not have the power to overturn the result.

Still unbeaten, Taylor has suggested the bout will be his last at light-welterweight.
You bet it will! He doesn't want to make the weight to be handed his arse on a plate by Catteral again!
