Josh Warrington betting offer: Get price boost on Warrington to 6/1


  • ROUND SEVEN

    Can Warrington turn this around? He’s certainly got his legs back… sort of. But Lara still moves forward.

    Warrington will need to pull out a huge flurry of punches to get any sort of respect from Lara, who looks incredibly well-schooled in there.

    No-one gave the Mexican a chance this week, but here he is, seizing the opportunity handed to him.

  • ROUND SIX

    Warrington looks to have got his legs back here but he’s still taking big shots from Lara, who looks confident as ever.

    The Leeds Warrior still on the back foot as well, Lara pressing forward trying to land shots.

    Unbelievable that Warrington has made it to this point as well. He was absolutely finished in the fourth.

    But next we’ve got round seven!

  • ROUND FIVE

    Warrington looking to fire back but his legs are still shaky. Lara should’ve got him out of here by now.

    The Leeds Warrior lands a couple big shots but Lara shakes his head, no problem.

    We head to a sixth! High drama!

  • ROUND FIVE

    He still looks flat in there Warrington, this could be absolutely disastrous.

    He’s looked flat from the opening bell, and he’s still in serious bother right now.

  • ROUND FOUR

    WOW!!!

    Huge round four for Lara.

    The Mexican knocks Warrington down and the Leeds man is shaken to his boots!

    Unbelievable.

  • ROUND THREE

    A lot of noise coming from Lara’s corner, they can sense that maybe Warrington isn’t his usual self without the fans and razzmatazz.

    Warrington will want to pick things up soon, he usually fights his best when he’s throwing hundreds of punches.

    Still a slow-ish start from Warrington, but he’s landed the odd big shot.

    Lara still relaxed.

  • ROUND TWO

    Little bit of a wary start to the fight from Warrington, remember he’s been out of the ring for 16 months or so.

    He usually has 20,000 Leeds fans cheering him in as well, so there’s that. Still.. some more big punches from both landing in this round.

    Some massive exchanges already between the two, could be brewing into a war here. Lara doesn’t seem to be going anywhere.

    1-1 or 2-0 Josh?

  • ROUND ONE

    Warrington already peppering Lara with some big shots but Lara basically shrugs them off before marching forward himself.

    He looks incredibly relaxed in there the Mexican, but Warrington won’t let up.

    Some big punches raining down already, Warrington has always said he wants to be in wars and scraps.

    He might have one on his hands here.

  • WARRINGTON VS LARA

    Here we go, round 1 is underway!

  • NEXT

    Warrington making his famous walk now.

  • WARRINGTON VS LARA NEXT!

    Lara is making his walk to the ring as we speak! Nearly main event time.

  • REMATCH!

    Hearn wants the Barrett-Martinez rematch!

  • ANGRY EDDIE

    This is what Hearn had to say about those bizarre scorecards.

  • HEARN ON JUDGES

    Eddie Hearn is absolutely furious with the judges over those scorecards.

    Kiko believes he’s won the fight, so does Barrett.

    It was an incredibly close fight, but 118-111 x2 is baffling.

  • BARRETT WINS UNANIMOUS DECISION

    The judges scored it: 118-111, 118-111 and 116-113.

    The Spaniard was totally confident of getting the upset win even from three British judges.

    Baffling – almost criminal scoring.

  • ROUND 12

    An even end to the fight, neither man in trouble.

    The Sky Sports team concede that Barrett deserves to taste defeat.

    The bell ends the fight and Martinez celebrates.

    Barrett does not look confident of having convinced the judges.

  • ROUND 11

    Great counter punching from Barrett as Martinez is tagged a few times at the end of the session.

    Trainer Pat Barrett tells his nephew he is boxing beautifully and is “world class”.

    But pundit Matt Macklin reckons Barrett needs to win this final round to avoid defeat.

  • ROUND 10

    Another positive session for Barrett as Martinez begins to flag.

    The Spaniard is still marching forward but not unleashing as many punches.

    Barrett is planting his feet and firing more combinations.

  • TOUGH CALL

    How will the judges see this if it goes the distance?

  • ROUND NINE

    Barrett thunders in an uppercut and left hook but Martinez pays no notice to the assault.

    Martinez’s visiting corner is getting louder and more confident.

    Barrett plants his feet and fires shots into Martinez’s ribs and guard in a much-need burst of success.

    Barrett has probably nicked that round and he really needed it.

  • ROUND EIGHT

    Another heavy left hand scores from Martinez as Barrett continues to struggle.

    Despite being the far smaller man, Martinez is bullying the home favourite.

    Barrett was boasting about his good looks before the fight but his face is badly marked up now.

  • ROUND SEVEN

    Barrett’s young career hinges on these final few rounds.

    Martinez was supposed to be a gatekeeper for Barrett to beat on the way up to a world title.

    Ringside pundit Dave Coldwell has it level or one round up to Martinez.

    Barrett has a cut above his right eye now too.

  • ROUND SIX

    Barrett misses wildly with a left hook.

    But the Manchester man’s jab is piercing and keeps prodding at Martinez’s face.

    Another leaping left hook scores on Barrett but does not stun him as the round ends.

  • ROUND FIVE

    Barrett ended the fifth by walking Martinez on to a right hook.

    But Martinez lands a meaty left hook and Barrett’s legs stiffen.

    Martinez is tucking up and thudding shits into Barrett, growing in confidence all the time.

    Martinez is now bleeding from his nose but he remains relentless.

  • ROUND FOUR

    Martinez ducks even lower and Barrett clips him with an uppercut.

    The Alicante man does not stop marching forward and stalking.

    A whipped left hook beats Barrett’s guard but doesn’t hurt the Englishman who is letting rounds slip away.
