Ben didn't ride down to Hobart for the title fight. He said he wanted to experience a large crowd at an event and it sounds like he missed a real screamer.

The 30-year-old Tasmanian outlasted Albert to claim a unanimous victory on points in front of more than 5,000 at the Derwent Entertainment Centre... Geale said the parochial crowd made a big difference. "5,000 screaming Tasmanians is so much better than 5,000 screaming Germans, I can tell you," he said. (source: ABC News)
