AdamGB's Sober Bout by Bout *The Contender* UPDATED

[CutMeMick]

This better be the 1st and last time we use these contender fights for the prediction contest.
Piece of sh*t!

CC AdamGB thnx, I'm pulling for Wright and Bundrage. What happens after these fights, I notice there are a few different weight classes? Is there a round after this with the winners?

Naah, it is just a one off special event with the boxers fighting for their country to try and win the 'Sugar Ray Leonard Cup' for either Britain or the US. I think that Warren is hoping to make this a yearly money-spinner, and with Ray Leonard on board, I reckon he might be on to it, especially if the stars from the previous year's 'Contender' series are on board.

The ironic thing is that if this does become a yearly event and us Brits absolutely suck and lose 3 or 4 years in a row, it's an absolute certainty that when we finally win the cup our best British fighter in the tournament will win Sport's personality of the year

10 year undefeated reign as world champ means F*** all to the British public, win an annual event competing against just one other nation then your a F****** national hero, go figure

CC bilbo, you're right on the button! Long time no see mate, have you been working on that thing outside of Saddoboxing....I believe it is known as a life in some circles....

I did something very out of character and actually dated a girl for a few days. Thankfully we are now currently seperated and I can return here to my real love :P

So what happened with Robin Reid vs Brinkley or did that fight not happen yet?

And Bilbo, good for you bro. Why did guys seperate so quickly though?
Myself, I'm supposed to go see this disgusting movie "Hills have eyes 2" on a double date type situation. I hated the first Hills have eyse movie, but I took this girl out a couple weeks ago to see a movie I wanted to see, and she is hot, so I can endure it. Anyway I gots to call her soon here and find out exaclty what time we are going to see it, since as of yesterday she still didn't know. Wish me luck man.

I spent the night before in the emergency room after a 12 hour shift at work you know? :P Burst the Synovial fluid out of one of my metacarpals no lasting damage though... fluid will go back into the joint in a few days.

Not much of a bout by bout I'm afraid... pen didn't work so this is mostly from memory...

---------------------------------

PAUL SMITH V JONATHAN REID

Good competitive bout, Smith is edging it on points and Reid can't seem to figure Smith out, neither fighter has a clear advantage on the outside... but Smith is bossing on the inside... despite Reid being the one doing most of the tying. Rounds are almost alternate - one to each fighter as it goes on but Smith starts to break away on work rate. Every time Reid gets caught with a solid shot it seems to hurt him from about the 4th... Smith doesn't seem phased by anything Reid can throw. Couple of times Smith could finish off Reid but he ends up smothering his own work and jumping in getting excited. 7th round Smith finally gets to Reid, short right hook (I think seats weren't the best :P) and floors him... Reid is up at about 7-8 or at. Reid gets caught again by a left hook/uppercut and the only thing that keeps him up is Smith... Smith lets him drop and the ref waves it off. Corner aren't too happy.

SMITH TKO 7

ANTHONY SMALL V WALTER '2 Guns' WRIGHT

Decent bout I suppose, not an awful lot of contact till the last 2-3 rounds... hard to call most of the rounds really... I had Small edging it it but if I'd been sitting somewhere else I probably could of easily given it to Wright, Small is dancing around doing his RJJ impression but rarely throwing anything... other fighter is also apprehensive... tied till the end but Small eventually gets it for me once he finds a rhythm and starts to connect... last rounds had some good action because both fighters realised that it could go either way.

SMALL SD

ROSS MINTER V 'Furious' FREDDIE CURIEL

This was a bout... Clean boxing but a really good fight... Minter is taking a few jabs to start off but soon manages to close Curiel down and start bossing the fight, I'm reasonably impressed with Minter's movement for suck a strong guy... first round is even but Minter starts bossing it from here on out... not only is he out working Curiel but out boxing in spells as well. 5-6 rounds it looks like Curiel is gonna get stopped, I'm amazed the ref didn't step in actually... Curiel is taking some punishment but he's a tough cookie. 7th round he manages to get back into the fight, gets a few flurries off but Minter still gets the round... 8th is much the same but then out of nowhere Curiel throw a peach of a punch and DOWN GOES MINTA What a come back! Minter trys to stand and is up by about 6 but falls into his corner and the ref waves it off... impressed with both fighters... great attitude... just what boxing needs... Minter takes the loss very well and is great for the sport... Curiel is one tough B******... I wouldn't call it luck but that fight could of easily ended as a wide UD for Minter.

CURIEL TKO 8

MARTIN CONCEPCION V ALFONSO GOMEZ

Got to admit I didn't watch this bout as closely... nearly fell asleep... :P just chatted to my mate. Alfonso came forwards most of the fight, got caught a bit but his work rate was getting it for him. Got Martin down in the 3rd-4th round (I think ), alfonso seems to catch him in the eye in the 7th... shades of nigel ban and Mrtin retreats and turns away from Gomez... Gomez rushes in and catches Martin a few times on the ropes and the ref waves it off.

GOMEZ TKO7

PAUL BUCHANAN V JERSON RAVELO

Buchanan is never completely out classed but Ravelo's just that little bit class has is much quicker on his feet, drops Buchanan a few times and gets a wide UD.

RAVELO UD8

ROBIN REID V JESSE BRINKLEY

Scrappy bout, Jesse is getting in close... lying on a lot etc... not loads to write about really... Reid gets a pretty comfortable UD... doesn't look like he ever steps it up to his top level... maybe this is all he's got now. Reid is the stronger man and gets the better of most of the exchanges... you can see the difference in experience.

REID UD8

COLIN MCNEIL V CORNELIUS 'K9' BUNDRAGE

Pretty good bout, Mcneil begins boxing quite well but Bundrage just seems to have that little bit more pop in his shots and accuracy... Bundrage is ahead 2-3 rounds and then catches McNeil with a killer body shot just before the bell... sounds like an air rifle going off and you can here it from the back of the arena... Mcneil (much to my amazement) just beats the count and then goes back to his corner... 20 seconds into the 7th or so the fighters are tied on the inside and McNeil drops... body shot... not a hard one but the shot from the 6th had taken it's toll... seems more of a case that McNeil couldn't keep himself than the shot taking his legs... no way he's getting up... Ref waves doesn't bother with the count because if McNeil gets up he's gonna get hurt.

BUNDRAGE TKO7

[AdamGB]

there was an extra bout on after Jonathan Reid's but I missed it... 4t there was a longer break... UK fighter got it I think... all I know is that it got stopped on cuts in the 3rd.

[No Contest]

Yeah go K-9..thats my dog. I wanna see a 8-10 round rematch with Forbes! I think he won that contender fight, but who knows with the editting.
