As an Englishman living in Cardiff it was a pleasure to be there and support “one of our own” Mr Joe Cordina, well done sir 👏🥊

[@frankiepatekbox]

This is class, need more of this BTS content. Hearing the reactions to the cards and just the little bits of dialogue you don’t usually pick up on TV is so interesting to hear. More please🔥

Great Behind the scenes content. Well done Cordina

[@abjuhnior1736]

The relation between Joe and Tony is admirable

[@grudeman]

Congratulations to Joe cordina he has a big fan in me 👍, I always thought form the first time I seen him he had an "X factor" and will be world champion! He showed everything in the ring on Saturday and that fight learned him more than all his amatuer and pro fights combined! Absolutely fantastic fight Wales has a new hero.

Great night. You should get a Welsh choir in for Joe's next fight.

[@FIHRR-bd8uy]

Great stuff cheers 👍👊

Great content 👌

The number 1 at 130. Cordina is one of my favorite fighters right now, I don't think my countryman Navarrete has enough skills to beat Joe

[@adamlees8410]

The Welsh always create such atmosphere and Joe proved he is the real deal beating someone of Rakhimov's quality and toughness. That was one hard fight.

[@AzH1988UK]

Joe was fantastic I thought it was suicide tactics holding his feet and fighting in the pocket but it was genius. No doubt if he ran round the ring he'd have slowed up late and potentially had a harder end to the fight.
He boxed very well showed true toughness and grit aswell as his usual skill

[@matthewstephens6848]

I love how Sims is happy to use the greats names as shorthand for certain techniques. As a coach, I've noticed there's a snobbery among boxing coaches. It's as if they want people to think they invented it, or something. I've been very open with my fighters 'look, this great fighter did this and it works - here's video examples. Let's drill it and try to implement it.'

[@avelonavelon1611]

This main event delivered more than davies/garcia did

[@joehalpin600]

@15:55 'He's got no chin' - Freddie Roach saying to the guy that got knocked down in the second round....

[@matthewstephens6848]

He's geeing his fighter up. Trying to give him confidence to work the game plan. It's almost as it he knows what he's doing.

[@killieboxing247]

Can’t wait to see Joe back in the ring what a fighter can box got dog in him got everything I will travel to his next fight all the way from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊

[@killieboxing247]

Don’t see any of the other champions want it with Joe fast Eddie will need to get the check book out lol 🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊

[@TextBookPuncher1]

Joe Cortina top fighter even though I was routing for shumnenov

[@paulbowman1762]

Judge's again who could have destroyed a Boxers career financially and mentally ! It's serious this and they need y ban them when they judge a fight nowere near what it was ! Great close fight but Joe got it ! Well done mate ! 👍👊🥊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@avelonavelon1611]

Eddie hearn gets another uk champion, all the queensberry fake accounts will start crying now

[@raxmanbox]

Joe Cordina is brilliant at making angles. Especially here against a southpaw. No wonder Tony Sims was yelling at every time he went to the ropes. His footwork is elite BUT... he wants to stay at 130. There's no place for him ar 135 with Tank and Shakur set to rule that weight for the foreseeable future

[@Lastofthescofflaws]

Codina is the best in the UK.............................. lol.............................
