Absolute garbage decision. Something tells me you may be ok with it though ;D

i've been a big supporter of o'shaquie on here for awhile, i had him winning but not as wide as you did or the commentary. robson has one go his way for a change

Don't mean he won or should be gifted some "make up" win though. Foster won that fight, clean for me. Dude got bent over and fecked by judging incompetence best case and clear corruption worst.

I have to admit I didn't see the whole fight. From what I saw, though... it looked like Foster had dominated most of the rounds. Looks like a bad decision to me, but what else is new in boxing. :-\

Mixed bag for Brazil tonight.

They just lost to Uruguay in penalties to get bounced out of the Copa America semifinals.

Penalties are a shitty way to end a game, IMO.

Never said ya did. They condition us to settle for less and routinely expect the bad. This sport man. But I'm gonna always yell robbery when I see one.

Onto Shakur v Artem. This card flew by in its own way. Artem seems abundantly confident. Wonder what Shakur weighs here

Shakur 1st. Artem def crafty. May all come down to the temperament on Shakur here. So much gets lost in his other conduct etc. But the kid is a boxing fool. Oozing skill.

Just watching this one, burnt on scoring. But the crowd starts to stir early 3rd. Artem has that "jazz hands" thing he does. Stays up front but tons of motion.

commentary talking shit again

Like the whip on left hook of Artem. Has pretty fast hands in there. Shakur staying close for it though.

Espn really has to upgrade on the production. They cut so many rounds to commercial early

Shakur starting to separate and stepping into it.

Left hook got to Artem in the gut. But Shakur is also working that belt. Showing very nice upper body defense and twitch is Shakur.

Artem mounting a small stand mid 9th. Shakur started to near maul him early. Shakur still can't pop a ballon with his punches but he's using his body here.

Round 11. If you're calling yourself p4p elite it's time to advance the advantages. Close strong. Artem working well with what he has but taking a lot. He's already gauged Artem power this late on so try kicking in the door. Final round up

i've got shakur winning by four points

12th round fini. Safe to say Tank won't be hiding under his bed from this. In fairness Shakur fought much more up front and slightly physical. He just got too content with it. Artem tough no doubt.
