As his gestures showed while he was being paraded around on his fans’ shoulders as the new number 1 in Europe, his revolver spat fire and downed Bradley Skeete, who even before the end of the second round had fallen to his knees three times and had to leave Bilbao with a damaged right cheek, aching ribs and a dent to his pride.
