Thoughts and prayers that he pulls through.

But when you look back to that Eubank v Watson fight wasn't it fought over 12 rounds or 15?

It was a brutal fight, Eubank deservedly won. I think the ref perhaps had pressure to keep it going due to the gypsy fan fare in blackwells corner. Billy jo saunders is a horrible cunt, hope they can organise a rematch

It was over 12 rounds, the same as last night's fight.

BBC news website says Blackwell doesn't need surgery so things are looking better for him.

Cheers for the update,let's hope he makes a full recovery.

was he sitting near Tyson fury because in one round when eubank was all over blackwell he started to give someone in the front row a bit of a mouth and gestures that meant blackwell got back into the fight for a round or 2

I heard that during the fight, Eubank senior seemed really concerned about the amount of punishment Blackwell was taking, not being wise after the event but i thought he was right. The action looked more like a Rocky movie than a fight, thank god the doctor pulled him out when he did.

the ref should of warned blackwell on at least 3 occasions that he needed to start defending himself
