How did everyone find the bouts/the red button/the main events?

I really enjoyed it tbf, liked seeing the whole undercard, nice to see some prospects there, thought Jazza Dickens did well but was a bit over eager. As for the two main events i thought they were interesting fights, draw was a fair enough result for both as well. Bellew-Chilemba could have been a bit more action packed, both should have stepped it up a bit at points, but it was always going to be a cagey affair

I thought that the Fielding - Reed fight was a borderline mismatch, Reed didn't seem to be able to throw punches with proper technique. Million Dollar Crolla Vs Filthy Disgusting Derry Matthews was a good fight. Bellew - Chilemba was sub-standard. The atmosphere was dead and it was the kind of display that Bellew isn't averse to putting in tbh. Having a main event like that is not going to hook casual fans onto the sport, no matter what people on forums think about what represents an interesting watch. Hearn should have a serious think before putting Bellew on as a headliner if that is what is going to get served up. This bill, coupled with the Wembley one, represents a poor month for Matchroom.
