I don't like Gus Johnson too. Most of the time he just repeats what Berstein saying, and he also exxagerate nonsense things.

gotta admit I thought abeko didn't have a chance, I met and saw the guy fight here at Arco on the Dawson undercard and really didn't look all that great but looked awesome last night. I actually think it he beat vic mentally as muchas anything else. I think it wasn't the 118 that beat him abecko at any weight last night would have won
The fight was sloppy as hell.
If that is so then Shaw is an idiot! I picked Vic to win this fight and i thought that's as far as he goes, could you imagine what Juanma would do to Vic at 122lb?Quote:

agree with you, Juanma, Vasquez, Marquez, and even Caballero beat Darchinyan at 122, IMO even Montiel beats him at 118Quote:

I think I grew to dislike Agbeko during this fight. He was a flopper just like his fellow countryman(I think) Joshua Clotty. Faking low blow pain, and acting like a baby every time Vic did anything close to being illegal was really annoying.
Is that something they teach you in Ghana when you learn to box. It is pathetic.
Did you eat your shoe already??? How does it taste?:)Quote:

Are you serious? If he acted like a baby every time Vic did anything close to illegal, he would have been crying literally every 10 seconds of the fight. Vic was abusing him with headlocks, pushes, elbows and headbutts the whole fight. Then when he got hit with a clear low blow right on top of the cup, he took all of 20 seconds to recover. Not to mention the BS knockdown, that means HE was the one who got a point taken against him when it should have been the other way around. And whenever their heads met, it was Vic who did the bulk of the complaining.Quote:

He was still sloppy in the exchanges and looked more like the fighter who fought Gonzalez on Versus especially with that left hook, if it can be called that. On the outside however he worked well with the jab early and was controlling the distance and making Vic travel to him when he wanted to get off punches. It was refreshing to see the return of "The Crab" on Saturday night. It was more refreshing to see him outboxed again and it didn't take the best boxer in the division to do it. Vic against anyone top 5 at 122 or even someone like Fernando Monteil is murder, guaranteed KO especially if it was someone like Lopez.
I knew it wouldn't be long before he abandoned the jab that won him the Mijares fight.
I remember Don King saying Agbeko beat two opponents that night - Darchinyan and the referee. Vic was really in desperate situation. The 2nd push was flagrant and points should have been deducted against Vic imo.
Is that the one where Vic lightly pushed him, and Agbeko went flopping across the ring, falling to the ground. Do you think Evander Holyfield or Miquel Cotto would ever act like that? No. Fighters need to behave like fighters.Quote:
