Kenny says
“We put in so much hard work. But I want to thank God for helping through me camp physically and mentally. Thank you to Whindersson for giving me this opportunity and thank you to Brazil for coming out tonight, you’ve got amazing energy.
“I had my jab so easy and clean from round one. I was able to work everything off that. It wasn’t easy, he kept coming forward like the Terminator and was eating my punches.”

Round 1
Kenny puts on a show in round one.

Round 5
And it’s over. We go to the scorecards.
Gib looks the happier man and for good reason. He took control of that bout in the second half.
We’ll see how the judges saw it in just a second.
-
Round 4
Gib really stamping his authority now. He’s in the ascendancy here and Jarvis is getting left behind.
He’s being pushed back and worn down. One round to go and it looks like Jarvis needs to win it, if not get a knockdown.
-
Round 3
Gib with some brilliant combinations that catch the eye and get a roar from the crowd in round three.
It’s good, but it’s few and far between. Jarvis hanging in with him through the rounds other than for a few Gib clashes.
-
Round 2
Jarvis begins round two how he started round one and does a better job of maintaining his flow.
A much better showing from him and a close round. Very tough to score.
Cagey so far. Not many big shots thrown or landed.
-
Round 1
Gib finishes the round very strong. He probably does enough to steal it.
Jarvis started very well but seemed to lose his way and his timing deserved him as the round went on.
Gib grew into it and was boxing very well towards the end of it.
-

Here we go then…
Jarvis is on his way to the ring with Living on a Prayer playing at the 3 Arena.
The first semifinal just moments away.
-
Fury time?
Crosbie has called out Tommy Fury after that impressive win.
He said: “Step in here with me you little B*tch and I’ll slap the head off ya!”
Fury is closing in on a fight against KSI, but this one would certainly be interesting.
-
It’s unanimous
Kiefer Crosbie wins! 50-45 on two cards and 48-45 on the other.
Not sure what the 48-45 score was about but it’s a unanimous win and deservedly so.
-
Round 5
It’s over. The fighters put the bad blood behind them and hug in the ring.
We go to the scorecards but this one is surely going to Crosbie, even if he didn’t have a knockdown.
Disappointing night for Chalmers, especially after getting in the ring with Floyd Mayweather last time out.
But we wait for the scorecards.
