Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 1:
Fewkes opens up with a body shot and an uppercut. More body shots, and within 30 seconds Fewkes is warned his body shots are creeping low. Fewkes busy with body shots, not too much beind them though. Ref warns Fewkes for pushing. Fewkes with some harder hooks to the body, and a reasonable uppercut. He's coming forward plenty, and Tontchev is cut. Ref warns Fewkes for pushing down with the elbow. Jabs and body shots from Fewkes. Nice overhand right towards that cut over the left eye. Body shots and a hook. Those body shots will take their toll, but he throws in the hooks upstairs too.
Fewkes 10-9
This is an 8-rounder at lightweight by the way.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 2:
Tontchev pings in a left hook as Fewkes begins behind the jab. According to commentators, Fewkes will win an European ranking if he wins here tonight. Tontchev with a couple of body shots, but Fewkes comes forward with a few nice short lefts. Tontchev keeping a tight guard, and Fewkes doing well with his uppercuts, and has a good range of punches. Tontchev returns some body shots and a straight up top. Puts in some body shots and another uppercut, and Fewkes is looking very good, if not too powerful at the moment. The cut is worsening.
Fewkes again
20-18
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 3:
Fewkes still busy, varying body shots, short hooks and uppercuts, and Totchev tries to return with hooks to the body. Fewkes is rightly motivated for this one, and is looking impressive with plenty of body movement head movement, and shots from all angles. Nice body shots and hooks again from Fewkes. Right hook fro Tontchev, and he comes back with three or four more body shots, but Fewkes regroups, and comes forward again. Ref warns Fewkes for the elbow. Tontchev looks beat.
Fewkes 30-27
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 4:
Tontchev looks patched up, but opens better with hooks to the body, and a straight right, but Fewkes is still the one comign forward, with his body shots, and uppercuts. More body shots from Tontchev. Uppercut from Fewkes, but Tontchev with the left. Ref again warning Fewkes for that elbow swnging about. Tontchev with a body shot, but Fewkes with three off his own, then a jab right from Fewkes, and Tontchev clenches. Tontchev with two hooks through to Fewkes, before a hook of his own. Fewkes withdrawn a pint for using his shoulder and elbow repeatedly. Left hook from Tontchev, and Fewkes with a big left of his own. Fewkes looking to unload big with hooks and body shots.
Fewkes loses a point, but he wins the round, so a 9-9 round.
39-36
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 6???:
Fewkes a little more cautious with jabs, and a body shot. Tontchev swings a wild hook. Nice left uppercut from Fewkes, but he is rocked back by an overhand right from Tontchev. And another, and Fewkes is worrying now. Fewkes steps it back up, with bodyy shots, and a hook up top. His workrate is still going though with jabs and hooks. Tontchev narrowly misses another right, and as he comes forward Fewkes with a good right hand. His right looks a good weapon. Big left to the body and a right from Tontchev.
Fewkes on workrate, and sky cut out one of the rounds, but
49-45 on my 5-round card.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 7:
Topntchev opens up with two hooks to the body, and they trade now, and a big right from Tontchev rattles Fewkes, and he clinches, more rights, and tontchev has him reeling, with body shots, and anouther overhand right. Low blow from Fewkes cuts into the rhythm of Tontchev, smart move from Fewkes. They trade right hooks, and another overhand right form Tontchev. He's exposing Fewkes. Left hook lands from Fewkes, but Tontchev lands a harder shot of his own. Fewkes jabbing, and staying out of range, as Tontchev's 90 second fitness sees him fade towards the end of the round again. Wide right hook gets home from Tontchev, and they swap looping rights to the body. Good jab and straight right from Fewkes. He pins Tontchev in the corner, and fires off four body shots before the bell.
Tontchev's round.
59-54 (with one round missing)
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 8:
Body shots from Tontchev as they begin. Fewkes still working those hooks to the body, but Tontchev replies in kind. Uppercut from Fewkes, and tontchev with another. Three body shots from Fewkes and more hooks , and tontchev gets on his bike. The ref again having a word with Fewkes. He looks to plant his feet and land hard shots. Overhand right from Fewkes, and Tontchev covering up, and backing off, though another overhand right stops him for a second. Two right hooks upstairs from Fewkes. Fewkes warned for using the head. The ref has hard work with Fewkes tonight.
135-44 landed punches, and the ref gives it to Fewkes. He looked very good in the first four rounds, but the imagination and angles of his shots faded on the stretch.
Ref scores it 78-74 over the eight rounds.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Great effort from Fewkes, and I love his passion at the end, that meant alot to him. Is the Geard Ajetovic fight next?
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!

I'm a fan of Carl but he defintely seems a bit chinny. Hope i'm wrong big time.
Cc Mate spot on, man that guy is a monster imo, Carl is quite a big Super Featherweight, but that guy could bang, i suppose that was the first fight well i have seem on Sky of Carl being backed up and he wasnt to clever going backwards, maybe a domestic fight with Gomez could be fun?
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!

I must admit I took a few notes on what you were saying Fenster, and agreed that it made some sense, so put a cheeky tenner on Kirakosyan at about 5 to 10. And y'all have been cc'd...previews for tomorrow's fights appearing in the morning.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Well done and :coolclick: rhun for a great rbr. I deliberately stayed away as I wanted to watch the fight first. Gutted Johannson lost but that guy was just in a different league.
I wander what's next for Johansson? I expect we'll see him in with Kevin Mitchell soon and that will probably be another loss on his record.
Shame as he's a good honest grafter. Hope he comes back ok.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
CC,excellent RBR. How do you manage to type so much and watch the fight bro?

Gutted for Carl, but that fight was all wrong for him. You could tell he was beat the minute the bell went. Never seen him so stiff and obviously shitting it. Can't blame him though.
Rounds 1-6 you could get around 20/1 for Kirakosyan...Sentimentality is a fast track to the poor house - unfortunately for my pocket ::**
