If so, what the hell happened to Watson over there? Was he outclassed, caught cold, or did he suffer a cut or something?
"I feel like I didn’t box the way I could. They kept us waiting to get into the ring for ages and I had to shadow box to keep warm, it was madness. "All my game plan went out of the window. I planted my feet instead of moving them around.
"I got up after he caught me and I was alright. In the third round I took the fight to him but I think the ref stopped it too early."
Watson’s trainer Joe Pennington added: "It didn’t go according to plan. He got caught with a big left hook at the end of the second round and went onto the ropes, but he didn’t go down though.
"When he got caught it changed the fight, he got caught again in the third and the referee stopped it.
"I thought he was getting bullied a little bit and didn’t execute our plan properly.
"Perhaps he was a bit over-confident, but he’s only really a novice and will learn from this.
"He has a 28-day suspension now for being stopped but will be back training on Wednesday."
