Re: FNF thread for August 5th
Even though Coleman has the KD Paris definitely looks like the heavier puncher. Coleman looks like a guy with 5 KO's in 19 wins.

Old OLD school.
Exactly what I was thinking. I remember we were talking about the lack of great teachers when it comes to craft nowadays. This fight is showing what happens when you get taught that by those teachers. If this fight carrys on like this & lasts the full 10, I can already say it will be my personal FOTY. Some great skills on display.
Re: FNF thread for August 5th
If everyone will just STAY at 140? That's one heck of a division.
manny really oughtta drop to 140 and go after those guys.

The precision of their feet and hands is really, really good.
PS I said that BEFORE Sergio did!
Re: FNF thread for August 5th
Paris may be annoying with a mute worthy voice but he's not a bad fighter. Both guys are pretty competent.
Re: FNF thread for August 5th
3-1 Paris
38-37
That last round was really tight though.

They're both reading each other so well. There was a great moment in that 4th when Paris threw a jab upstairs to drop a left hook to the body. Coleman had already brought his hands down to take that shot & come back with a little left uppercut. To read your opponents intentions like that is just fantastic, especially because it didn't look an obvious shot.

It really is fun watching fighters THINK in the ring isn't it?
Re: FNF thread for August 5th
Colemans acting tired. He really telegraphs. Paris finds life and juuust misses some game changing right hands
Re: FNF thread for August 5th
I'm at 3-2 Paris so the fight is even.
