Chisora:

"If we can get Joseph Parker ASAP, let's go."

It's main event time!

Sweet Caroline has played out and now only one thing left, the ring walks for Taylor vs Prograis.

Adam Hamdani26 October 2019 22:35

Round one: Prograis 9-10 Taylor

Both men working in the centre of the ring and spend time working the other one out, almost hesitant to throw first.

Taylor lands a couple of clean left hooks which hurt Prograis but he gets back to his jab and looks to establish himself. 

A close round, I’d edge it to Taylor.

Adam Hamdani26 October 2019 22:50

Round two: Prograis 19-19 Taylor

Prograis is certainly the lead puncher of the two but it’s Taylor who is landing with more accuracy and guile, doing good work on the inside every time he finds an opening.

Prograis lands a short left uppercut and follows up with a triple jab.

Really good round from both men, I edge it to Prograis there. 

Adam Hamdani26 October 2019 22:53

Round three: Prograis 28-29 Taylor

Taylor is working the body really nicely now and moving around the ring, he’s never a standing target for Prograis to hit. 

Prograis again has success with the short left uppercut as both men stand and trade. This is a seriously high level fight! 

A Taylor round for me. 

Adam Hamdani26 October 2019 22:57

Round four: Prograis 38-38 Taylor

Prograis starts strongly and lands repeated jabs to the head of Taylor, but it’s another close round as both men get inside and have success. Some afters landed but what a fight this is so far!

Round Prograis.
