Thread: Inkin - Balszay (mini rbr)

Hi all, just turned on tv and saw that Denis Inkin (34-0) - Karoly Balszay (19-0) is on at the moment. It is for the WBO title at 168. Anyway, thought I'd take my chance with a mini rbr, as not that many people are likely following this.

Card is in Germany btw (shown on German ZDF).

First 2 rounds pretty hard to score. In reference to another thread on this board, these are two prototypical Euro fighters, if there ever were any. Standing up, hands held high, not too much action. Not particularly interesting so far.

3rd round by far the best so far.

I have Inkin up, but not by much. Difficult rounds to score imo, but Inkin probably has the edge so far.

Round 4:

Balszay pressing the action, probably getting the cleaner shots even. Decent fight at the moment and a close one too. Round Balzsay 10-9.

Total score at this point 38-38 (2 rounds each).

Round 5:

Balzsay still pressing the action, and while he is not hurting Inkin, he is the one connecting the most. However, Inkin had by far the best shot in the round early, and I'll give the round to him. Cannot help sit with the feeling that Inkin is the better boxer, but he needs to show it in the ring more than at the moment.

Inkin 10-9 & Inkin 48-47.

Round 6:

Big round for Balszay, hitting Inkin with a couple of jabs and a good hook. All even imo, 3 a piece.

I'd be grateful if you did a rbr. I was looking forward to this match but couldn't find a stream.
