So you big up Marriaga who has 0 good wins, is 0-3 in title fights for a fight moving up in weight. But steal the shine off a guy who is trying to do what has only been done once since the 80's and is fighting in his division. The division he has won 2 titles in traveling to his opponents home towns. Interesting completely backwards perspective.Quote:

I guess reed has some nice contract with top rank or something, otherwise why put this on on tv, reeed is winning easy and frankel just doesnt look that good but we are still here in the 5th round ....
bet 5 canadian quids on umbongo winning by ko, he is wild but tall and strong and crawford has become a bit complacent recently, so i think it is worth the fairly good odds, mayb ehe can land one of those weird, awkward left hands and put crawford to sleep like he did to troyanovsky.
frankels shorts have split.... maybe the most interesting thing happening here :S.... although i guess if you squint reed looks a bit like bradley cos errr they are both black and bald :Sidk
reed wins ud, he dominated pretty much, so well done to him but i think he will be disappointed not to get a stoppage, it was not much of a contest
Shakur seems tentative, his opponent has nothing for him. Trying to get some work before taking him out?
shakur stevenson on now, v an experienced but oft defeated/stopped argy, commentating team are pushing stevenson hard(ward especially)I think SS is on his way to being a top rank star whether we like it or not !
teddy atlas is setting the table already S:
Man you cannot replace Bradley with Ward ;D. Stevenson looks decent, bit stiff. Great they started on time.
I think stevenson has pretty good fast hands but he doesnt seem so flexible with his upper body movement, which may be a problem(like it was for broner), he is still very young though, I like new jersey so i hope he does well.
teddy is now going to eat, the table is set, but is the larder stocked :S
I don't know what everyone sees in Shakur, he's fast and long. I don't see much ability to dictate
When your opponent lands less than 20 punches in the whole fight you should be able to do some damage.
Everything off the shoulders with him and he does give ground just to watch things. Finding his way in fairness.
And there goes Tessitore trying to Loma'nize him "you'll be hearing about him for years" :reporter:.
I really dont like the way north americans say the name craig.. it's just weird, I dont think you guys should be allowed to name children this...
anyway i thought gvozdyk was a cruiserweight, I am drinking beer and I was wrong, he is a light heavyweight and andre ward is on commentating duty, maybe there's something in that
This could be very hazardous for Mr. Baker.

"creg" ferguson is a disgrace for allowing himself to be known by this name, shame on him!
;D 300 lbs is almost 2 lt hvys. Honestly though Craig would be hurting by now http://youtu.be/k8D6vkO9RgIQuote:

Baker just isn't very skillful whatsoever. Dvozdyk is just going through the motions and doesn't look super impressive.
i guess gvozdyk is fighting a bit like an amateur, he is getting in there landing a few good punches and getting out of the way, racking up the points but not in danger of stopping MR Baker, maybe other guys could beat MR Baker easier but i tihnk gvozdyk has a higher ceiling than other contenders
Hey Oscar Valdez next card..and not on ppv like last out. Gvozdyk fighting down to level here for me. You're the showcase. both have some sparring agreement going on a bit.
good post m8 he just knocked him down and stopped him u nobQuote:

So it looks like Crawford has a longer reach than Indongo. Indongos height may not be as much of a factor as originally thought
Crawford doesn't need no ramp, he enters through the fans WWE style ;D.
He says ths is only the 4th time in boxing that a fight has occured for all four belts, is that true ? also I am pretty sure the ibo belt is on the line too(so 5 belts but maybe ibo buggered af here)... you guys are so insensitive by not recognizing this!
atlas has crawford as 3rd best p4p, I am not sure I really think crawford is pretty much the best p4p, I love his attitude, he is a bad tough guy and he knows it but doesnt feel the need to parade it and i think he has been improving since he first won a world title, crwaford is the real deal and a dangerous guy, I really like verything about him
Indongo just lunges in too much and pays for it
Indongo has pogo legs and bad going backwards. Not shy after being buzzed there. A composed all business Crawford is pleasure to watch
oh indongo sending over the windmill left hand, might aswel try the samoan bowler tecnique that alex leapai tried v wladimir S:,,,
1-0 for crawford he is way sharper
2nd round and crawford puts him down..... crawford is just way better here
Indongo looks f-cked
Indongo throws way too high. Crawford is landed vicious body shots. I think that body shot was a big part of that knockdown
2-0 fro crawford and a knockdown too... ref asks umbongo if he wants to continue, I think ref knows this isnt going far
Sky comms are now talking about how shit, wild and ungainly Indongo is... yeah, that was obvious before hand (four belts, history, two belts make you a legend)
