    Absolutely stunning finish to the fight. He deserves that.

    Big fight for Anthony tonight, up against a three weight world champion in Linares. Let's hope he can land one of those big body punches and win the fight. Either way it should be a cracker.

    Really looking forward to this one. On paper the best non-ppv fight in quite a while. If this is as good as it should be then we're in for a great fight.

    Connor Benn is like a carbon copy of his dad. In some ways it's good, but it will limit his progress imo. Hopefully it doesn't as its good to watch.

    As said above Crolla is a real nice guy and a top fighter.

    Fancy him to do it tonight, Linares is good but limited and Crolla deserves his day in the sun.

    Got Linares 3 rounds up going into the last, Corolla needs the KO.

    Crolla has tired badly in the last 2 rounds, he needs a big finish.

    Easy win for Linares imo, 4 or 5 rounds difference mimimum, anything else is hometown judging.

    That was the right result, Linares was just a class above there

    Great fight and deserved win for the legend that is Jorge Linares. Crolla done himself proud though.

    Couple of judges scored it closer than I thought but Linares won that comfortably.

    I like Crolla but he was outclassed there, had Linares 5 rounds up and glad at least 1 judge agreed.

    Great fight, I really thought Linares was tiring, but to be fair he's an absolute class act. Crolla is now established himself as a real world class fighter.

    Rematch has already been agreed apparently. Would gladly watch a rematch.

    He wasn't outclassed. After 10 rounds it could've went either way. Crolla was coming on strong, but Linares was superb in the last 2 rounds.
