Brave effort from Cook, but like Johanneson last night, he was outmatched.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
nice work mate and CC... Cook showed some heart but was out classed bigtime.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Good work Rhun CC
That first knockdown robbed him of any chance he had IMO, which as it turn out wasnt much of a chance.
Out of his depth, sadly against a guy that whilst obviously a bit handy, not top notch.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Cook looked one dimensional (jab, overhand right repeat/ add in lunging hook every once in a while). Great heart shown aswell.
However me Mum (who knows squat about boxing) thought cook looked far too tired for a proffesional athlete.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
COME ON COOKIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!! ;D
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Cook took a pasting but he was winning the 10th and i couldn't believe it great heart by Cook but he was outclassed.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Oh! shit Cook lost ???? WTF? :o
I've seen Luevano fight several times hes nothing special really and hes been outclassed and out gutted by lower quality of oposition.
Damn! I really hate to say this but if Luevano outclassed Cook then you really can't say much about Cook. Like I said I'm not trying to take a dig at either fighter. But I've NEVER been impressed with Luevano, hes had trouble making weight in other fights.
Wow!! shocked at this result, I really Am.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
I don't think anyone has ever thought Cook was a world beater.
Luevano was better than him all round.
Seriously damaged my acca :( ;D

He was a narrow favourite going into the bout, but apparently all of his corner team had been throwing big money at the bookies backing Luevano to win, and he was quite simply better than Cook. Luevano's only loss was not really against a superstar of the game, so Cookie should have been fancying himself.
Anyhow, next up we have Amir Khan v Willie Limond, and in the previews Khan has been trying to turn around some of his previous press, by being humble and admitting he's not the finished article.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Amir Khan looking a little nervous, but putting a brave face on it. He gets an astounding reception by the fans, and no doubt he is the main attraction here tonight, no matter how it is billed. Willie Limond is the champion, and gets roundly booed by a majority of the crowd, but a few scots out there. He's coming in to the Kanye West remix of Daft Punk track, Better Faster Stronger....or something like that. Looking forward to this one, and Amir is a huge favourite to win this un. Next up the action.

Luevano is a local boy. He's from La Puente. I had him beating Cook. I didn't think he'll knock him out. But it's better that he did. Takes it out of the judges hands.
