What fight are you watching?

Should have been a UD IMO...but the right guy won.

Thats outstanding....Boxing got it right tonight. Good shit!
Sorry Andre ;) It was a solid scrap!
Re: ESPN FNF - March 1st - Billy Dib vs. Evgeny Gradovich
I am really glad 50 Cent is involved in the fight game now. Boxing can use all of the star power it can get these days.

There were some real close rounds "landing punches" wise. I just figured Dib would get the md because of who he is in relationship to his opponent which is quite common these days. I also said the case could be made for the Russian.
Re: ESPN FNF - March 1st - Billy Dib vs. Evgeny Gradovich
Hotdamn, at least 2 of the judges got it right, but it wasn't that close in my view. Officially a SD, 114-112 x 2 for Gradovich and 114-112 for Dib. I thought for a minute we were going to see another robbery.
Anyway the right guy won, that's all that really counts.

Well that is logical.

Crazy that R Garcia has two champs in the same weight class, in the same gym :D
Garcia is the reason I thought Gradovich might have a chance of winning tonight.

Many boxing decisions these days are far from logical.

I like this Russian kid, he came to win and showed a lot of heart & determination. This was one of the best title fights I can recall seeing on FNF.

Lots of grappling and hugging late but it was a good scrap.

I doubt if @Andre gives a shit that Dib lost, I don't think he's a fan.
Re: ESPN FNF - March 1st - Billy Dib vs. Evgeny Gradovich
Good FNF!
I needed a decent scrap to get me excited about the sport.

True, but overall it was a good tussle, Robert Garcia has turned Gradovich into a Mexican warrior, I think that's funny.
