Fitzgerald cheeseman on now should be a good match hopefully fitzy can do it 

[Blackmag 6,099]

Im glad for Scott  and his dad I thought it was closer to be fair but he's a decent lad as his cheeseman I can see a rematch 

[darbo 4,776]

i thought cheeseman used his head this time and boxed well. He had to withstand the pressure from round 9. But i had cheeseman nicking the fight.

Typical biased commentary from Sky pundits. Like to see them do it again it was a good fight but I thought Fitzy had it by 3 rounds.

[Blackmag 6,099]

Yes it was a bit biased but Scott took a lot of support up and Hearn is a prick by his comments but hopefully his  next fight at deepdale

Yep they were singing for cheeseman saying he was miles ahead then when he started to come undone it was suddenly a draw and they could score it either way. Embarrassing. 

They where giving Cheeseman everything up to about round 6 but I thought Fitzy had won at least 3 of the first 6 rounds. Fitzy won at least the last 4 rounds convincingly  so it was at least 2-3 rounds to Fitzy at the end imo .

[Blackmag 6,099]

What a first round that was 

[darbo 4,776]

Cracking fight between two well matched boxers both give it their all. A credit to the sport.

I thought the scoring for the Cheeseman - Fitzgerald fight was terrible i felt a bit sorry for Ted he made a great effort to change his style and it worked well for two thirds of the fight....apart from the first round which i thought Fitzgerald possibly won i didnt give him anything until the 9th so had Ted winning a fairly straightforward 7 - 5.....how 2 judges gave it to Fitzgerald by 3 rounds i dont know......smashing little dust up though.

Also adam Smith's bias in cheeseman favour was embarrassing.  Cheeseman attitude stinks as well. Lost a close fight and left the ring then on twitter crying talking about a robbery. Wasmt a robbery he lost a close fight. 

Was that the interview were he said he would walk away from boxing rusty I think emotions were running high and was obviously upset which is understandable if you think you've been wronged it could of been something to do with another decision not going his way who knows but I do think it was closer than the scorecards and was one of the judges not from Preston

Looking forward to Taylor v Prograis tomorrow night. Another step up in class I think, but hopefully Josh can produce the goods. Ricky Burns v Lee Selby on the card too. Would love to see Rickster get the W and hang up the gloves for good. Can’t see it though.

Price needs to pack the sport in.  He's a liability to himself. I never feel comfortable watching him. I always fear he's going to get seriously hurt.  Time to go back to the day job Mr Price.

Was it me or did the towel get chucked it rather quick because the ref was going to let him carry on
