UK have great fights

Leigh Wood can never be overlooked now, he’s proven time and time again that he can pull out a win from great adversity.

Against British fighters he should fight with the real challenger worington been losing he should fight benado Lopez or rematch with Lara I guess

@jonathanruiz866 Brandon Fig the only American that has a chance at feather.

wood should just fight lopez and stop running@@jproper

I hope all you guys aren't talking about the guy who just beat Conlan? Leigh is a world title holder and you guys think he's "running" from a guy that's not even in the top 15? Haha FOH 😄 🤣

i mean warrington fought woods what rank is he... and yeah we talking about the guy who wrecked Warrington and conlan this fight was almost meaningless Warrington is damaged goods@@jproper

Cheers eddie

Warrington fought like a Mexican body puncher...

​@@unitedkingdomoffiveeyes9765always does

Give Lara my salaam

Lara beats Warrington with ease. That's the fight we want next.

He’s the modern day Arturo Gatti

It was a lucky punch

@@hib6076 6 lucky punches ? Move on, ree-tawd 😂

You think Naoya Inoue is ready for Leigh Wood?

Warrington cpmpletely dominated him until he get reckless in the end tbf

​@@danielsmithiv1279I like Wood but he would get demolished by Inoue. His defense just isn't the best, and his chin has been through so much damage these last two years I don't think he could handle even one clean punch from Naoya.

​@@danielsmithiv1279😂😂😂😂 you're Funny wood gets destroyed by Inue

Bang on . Exciting to watch ! Almost like benn . Vulnerable but has the equaliser . Class

That accuracy was deadly and completely unexpected given he was taking a battering beforehand...

He's not rare he got knocked out but he is a rare breed for England I want to see him against benado lopez

Inue kos him in the 4thrnd

Inue kos him in the 4thrnd

@@chicity217Com'on, put some respect on Wood name. Inoue had said that Wood was one of the strongest fighter he fought in sparring when Inoue was still at 115. Before Inoue name blew up, Wood from his sparring with Inoue, stated that Inoue was going to win the WBSS and would not get a real challenge until Featherweight.

Never thought it would happen - Woods was getting outboxed for almost twice the time against a better fighter in Conlan and finished him. Woods was also the favourite with the bookies and pundits by some way...

Nah warrington is a cheater

he's beaten up , by warrington and losing, then suddenly.came up

Just tell him to NOT come to America 🇺🇸 💪

@@Ze_Moosenot one American at that weight he couldn’t beat

Wood is the comeback king. Was losing agasint conlan until he got the 12th round stoppage

This is also why a lot of fighters need to understand that they can’t leave it to the judges

@@browneyedbandito literally a lot easier said then done

​@@browneyedbanditoWarrington was beating Wood. Even Froch knew it. Wood saved his own a** by getting that TKO.

@@everettyoung6596 he saved his own asa by being the superior man that night

Wood needs to work on his feet. You can't box with your hands down and stand and trade at mid- or close-range. Warrington almost had him and would have done if he'd been a little more controlled in his aggression and a little smarter with the knock down - face the referee! But it was a great fight all the same and both men deserve a world of credit.

Idk man woods grabs dudes arms A LOT 💯 He wins by ko but he doesnt win a decision fight with that tactic against anyone 👀

​@@davesmith826yea and he has very stiff footwork i agree

Always outnumbered, never outgunned! Leigh Wood/Robin Hood shifting between the trees sharpshooting until he's the last man standing. Nottingham's finest. He actually fights like Forest play, dont have the ball, under the cosh, score on the counter. Hard to watch at times. I also love Josh Warrington, he's been stiffed a few times by officials but even if he'd had the minute, can't help feeling that would have played into Wood's plan 2nd half of fight, more gaps appearing and since he'd switched from southpaw things were steadying.

@@YoungTowser Behave he got LUCKY that simple .

the thing is both arent world class.

Yeah but he got a glass jaw I want to see him against benado lopez

Domestic level at best

@@ScottLG90having both won world titles…

I'm talking about current level not the past

Our fighters are all heart and always have been, not the best compared to America and Mexico but something about British boxing for the last 10 years or so that is just magic, the atmosphere and the action it’s like a perfect storm. Most cards that I watch in America are so dead compared

@@wokrainer true. It's been particularly great since London 2012 best era of Brit boxing since that 80s era of middles benn eubank Watson etc...its when there can be those rivalries. Hatton was great but he didn't have that world class rival ( Witter fight didnt happen but shouldve yeah?) It's a goal of mine to come over for one of those big fights for that atmosphere! UK fight fans are the best in the world. Most knowledgeable and most respectful when opponents beat their fighters. every time teddy atlas says Brit boxing is huge coz there are no other sports I want to give him a slap! I mean has he not heard of the premier league?

Mexicans beat them up all the time bud

@@raxmanbox 😂 it’s funny I had a look how popular boxing is in the uk a while back, it’s the 8th most popular sport, it’s behind horse racing 😂 the vast majority of the working class love football, it’s by far the biggest sport here, the posh boys generally play rugby, cricket, hockey. You should come over man, if you pick the right night it will be electric

@@wokrainerall heart ? Some of the most embarrassing quit jobs in recent memory have pretty much all been British fighters saying “all heart” is straight disingenuous

Very determined fighter. It’s unreal

His conditioning must be from another galaxy. His chin is unmatched. Leigh Woods is beyond description

jajajajajajajaja or other races have people that dont give up either lil bro 😂

​@@stuckanonymous it's pretty much accepted, not just by Mexicans, that Mexican fighters are like that. It doesn't mean NO other races have some fighters with massive heart! So don't get all worked up about it. 🙄 It's just that Mexicans are particularly known for it, and it's as much a fighting style thing, as it is a bravery thing.

Men from the midlands built different. Warriors.

Estas Bien PN-dejo , como vas a comparar a estas basuras con un Boxeador Mexicano??? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Otabek Holmatov let's goo🏅👊

Ref followed the rules..either Warrington dropped a clanger or his head was as gone as his legs were...only had to face the Ref soon as he got up and be checked could have got on the stool immediately afterwards and perhaps recovered...gave the Ref no option but to wave it off....suspect getting dropped on bell added to his head being gone in the moment...Personally think he got up purely on instinct and reacted to the bell and staggered to corner...shame he didn't just face the Ref...gave Ref no option but to wave it off

he should give Lara a rematch in the States

He gassed out

I think Wood should move up a weight imo , or give Warrington a rematch , the body shots were hurting and Wood looks drained, the point off was an absolute disgrace. In a way its better it was a ko than a points win for Wood because that point off was ridiculous.

Don't want to see a rematch . He got knocked out move on next opponent

Wood is moving up to super featherweight that was his last at 126

@@gsd8225 wasn’t thinking that at the time but cool song ⚡️

Agreed

Think Lara is just the worst possible stylistic match up for him he can’t beat him

@@jordymanunited yeah just annoying 😂

That's when he should of retired..

Spot on. The same as Tony Ferguson after the justin gaethje loss.

Warrington was counted - _as per the rules following a knock down_ - out. If the boxer is still shaky, stumbling and unstable after standing up from a knockdown, the referee’s count will continue.

Yup this was another bag job to make sure the guy they wanted to win could actually win, it was their one shot and that’s exactly why they called it. Boxing is so corrupt

Yep, he should have taken a knee, and yes again, danger of brain bleed through the extra shots, plus he got up too fast. Lots of errors in a short time.

was stopped b/c he made his way to the corner with Jelly Legs, If he had just stayed where he was to take the count while allowing his head to clear, I don't think it would have been stopped b/c the bell had already rang to end the round and he would have been more stable going to the corner and so maybe allowed to come out for next round

Gd decision that! Live s safely to fight again!

he was talking to his corner at the count of 9 it should 100 percent have been stopped

Your right,,the bell had gone and he had back got up,.ref not thinking there he had 30 secs to recover

@@gerardvessey4112 why would that matter? Is that a automatic DQ? If so, I’m not aware of it. I also don’t know if this fight was you can’t be saved by the bell. If that was in play, but he got up, as he did, before the 10 count, which he clearly did, then to my mind, he was okay to continue, unless he quit. I didn’t hear anything about his corner saying he was done…so in my mind, the ref pulled the trigger a little early. Arguably, he was winning the fight. A championship fight. By your thinking when Wilder laid out Fury, the ref should have stopped that fight. We know that Wilder was losing that fight, without the knock downs he definitely loses that fight on the cards. But those two knockdowns got him a draw. That was the difference in the next two fights that probably don’t happen if the fight was stopped. This guy beat the count. The round was over. He deserved the chance to start the next round…imo.

Old frochy doesn’t want Leigh wood being the boxer people think about when Nottingham is mentioned 😂

Yes😂

@@kdkd4996 spot on man👍🏻

Listening to Warrington in the after-fight press conference is even worse than listening to Warrington make excuses

Why? headbutting and back of the head isnt impressive

He was ahead but masterclass ..not from these highlights

@@hummerfan8889 Come on bro, you can't deny the fact that Wood only won 1 round before that KO.

@@Rumpleforeskin77 Idk watching it live it felt like the momentum was always in favour of Warrington heavily, except from the 2nd round.

​@@massapin9293Before the KO. Yeah who cares

Think that’s more sheer grit and determination than any training from Davidson he was getting out boxed

he was getting schooled until he landed one punch.

@@totalprecisioncarpenter5922 did he win though? Okay

@@doublewhopper67 well clearly u don’t rate him or ben! 🤷‍♂️ just like others in this comment hence the underrated comment

It reminds me when Chavez robbed Taylor, same sus stoppage

He Warrington wasn`t going to be able to defend himself if the ref had allowed it to carry on he would have sustained life changing injuries the ref was quite correct under no circumstances would a mere 10 seconds have been enough for him to recover

Brit refs are notorious “quick stoppage” refs. But on this occasion Warrington pretty much gave the ref no option but to stop it. He turned his bk on the ref n walked to his corner on jelly legs when knocked down but even then the ref didn’t stop it, n then Warrington carried on letting the ref count with his bk STILL turned. As Warrington was ahead on points n it was the end of the round he probably should have let him see if he cud recover n come out for the nxt round. But although I hate bad stoppages this isn’t no bad stoppage at the same level as Froch-Groves 1.

He shouldve let it go on. The round was over.

Obviously the ref was in the bag

He brain would of been scrambled egg if he got hit with shots like again early in the next round if it continued

It’s not luck when you do it time and again

That was the difference. When Warrington had Wood hurt, he went on the backfoot until the round ended, letting Wood of the hook. Wood was in there in milliseconds when he hurt Warrington and finished him.

Definitely deserved another round....

Respectfully disagree with that assessment. You have to show the ref that you are able AND willing to carry on. You can't have your hands on the ropes with your back to the ref to the count of 8. It just doesn't convince the ref at all that you want to carry on. It certainly didn't look like Josh wanted to continue and indeed he didn't argue with the ref immediately when the ref waived it off. I understand what you are saying but due to what I've outlined above I disagree that the stoppage was premature. Great scrap regardless.

He was not lucid ..his legs were gone why did he go stagger over to the corner, ya take the count and look into the eyes of the ref and ready yourself for re enter the battlefield. It’s the heart of the fighter to pop back up so quickly but certainly not the correct decision…ya take the count.

All about money isn't it? They know if there is a controversial finish they'll be calls for a rematch so they can run it again. Clear corruption I think.

@@Eric-qm5xw he staggered because he was hurt, but bear in mind he got up at 2-3. Many fighters are a bit wobbly when they get up. He then stabilised himself and turned to face the ref, with a clearly look in his eyes, on 8, by which point the ref had already started to wave it off. You are supposed to get to the count of 10 to be ready to fight on. The bell had gone for the end of the round, and whilst you can't be saved by the bell, it explains why he walked towards his corner who were standing on the apron as the round had finished.

Says leave comments here,not a diary.😂

that was my thought also, that is why Warrington went to his corner because he heard the bell, but u must submit to the ref also.

He had his back facing the ref. That's a no. Although it was the end of the round that doesn't make it a reason to let it slide. Warrington was putting a beat down on Wood. But this is boxing. That's how it goes.

What is bro babbling about. Warrington legs looked like a new born baby dear. He also had his back turned on his ref🤦‍♂️

Aye I think I see how he was after the mi Ute maybe as the bell had actually gone which I didn’t realise , but he was badly hurt

No, he was out cold on his feet and even took another brain-rattling shot on the way down. Couldn't walk straight when he stood up. He was cooked.

That was complete b.s they knew what the outcome was going to be. Extreme immature stoppage smh

He was counted out. If the boxer still appears unstable, and confused the referee can continue the count out OR stop the fight.

Just like the point deduction with no warnings. Wood would have finished that fight, but the ref seemed to have an agenda.

100%

Why did Josh turn his back to the Ref and remain turned away from him?

Hardly a lucky shot being as he intended to do it!

How can it be a luck shot when there boxing🤣

Nothing lucky about it, nice short right hand. Think Warrington got a bit too carried away with his success. Great scrap.

Lucky shot ? Leigh wood is a known finisher and knock out artist , stop watching boxing you melt .

The luck is the fact that it rattled Warrington when wood was getting beat like he was , no luck in throwing the punch but it’s luck in how it effects your opponent

The ref should of allowed him to continue, my guess is they wanted wood to win. Taking a point for hitting behind the head when he clearly ducked into the punch. They knew Wood was most likely behind in the cards and stopped the fight. If you give the guy the minute to recover and after that he can’t continue then you stop the fight.

I agree but with a different ref.Ok to punish Warrington but if you let the opponent grab a lot which is another foul you are going to entice bad tactics from the other opponent.I would like to see a rematch aswell but with a fair referee.

Yeah, he got up and went to corner because he heard the bell. You could see disappointment in his face, so he was there in the moment. Weird stoppage

He got dropped on the bell..Ref started the count..Warrington gets up...he has to face the Ref..either he or his corner dropped a clanger or Warrington wasn't with it...Ref followed the rules properly

Huh? He got ROCKED with three serious brain-shaking shots and could barely walk straight when he got up. If it continued, he coulda gotten seriously hurt. He was cooked.

Nope, you have to show the ref you’re ok to continue. He didn’t do that so the ref had no choice but to call it off.
