    Round 7: Selby v Warrington

    Josh Warrington has landed some clean shots. That man is on a mission tonight. He is allowing Lee Selby to come out of the blocks early to blow his steam out and then come on stronger in the second half of the round.

    Round 7: Selby v Warrington

    Carl Frampton
    Former world champion on BBC Radio 5 live

    It is looking very difficult for Selby to come back.

    It is Warrington's shots that are knocking Selby's head back and you remember his work.

    Just one round for Selby for me so far.

    Round 7: Selby v Warrington

    Great character shown from Selby to still be in there, still attacking, and still landing. He has an uphill task though.

    A battered face, two bad cuts (over either eye), a fighter in Warrington growing in confidence all the time and a passionate home crowd cheering their man on.

    This will be some victory for Selby if he can turn this one around.

    Warrington's corner tell him to watch out for the "big single" punches, notably an uppercut.

    This is boxing, one punch can change everything.

    Suddenly a flood of blood appears.

    Round 7: Selby v Warrington

    Selby needs to get Warrington out of there, and do it quickly. The referee, Michael Alexander, has already contemplated stopping this, and if Selby gets in any more trouble then this one is done.

    Selby is not punching hard enough to deter Warrington.

    Warrington is a man on a mission tonight.

    Round 6: Selby v Warrington

    Warrington, after six rounds, is unmarked. Selby, on the other hand, is most definitely marked. A bad cut to the left eye in the second round has now been joined by a bad cut over the right eye.

    Again it seems to have been an accidental head clash.

    A strong Warrington round. If it goes to the cards, then surely the man from Leeds will have his arm raised.

    What a performance from Josh Warrington so far. His tempo has been perfect.

    Chris Sanigar in Selby's corner is shouting at the referee "you don't need to stop that".

    A powerful left rocks Selby. The Welshman is in trouble.

  16. Postpublished at 22:25 British Summer Time 19 May 2018

    The referee gets the doctor to look at Selby's mangled face. We continue, just.

    There are two cuts here. This could be a problem for Lee Selby.

    This could be it.

    Selby has another cut. This time to the right eye.

    Josh Warrington looks the stronger of the two that's for sure.
