Tarver vs. Lateef Kayode Saturday night fight thread

Winky isn't shot, but he is old. He cannot get anything going.

Not a great fight.

To sound an ass....I respect a shot figter more at least when he stays active and plies his trade with a chance to earn his way in. Winkys balance is horrid and the worst thing that can happen for him is if he pulls this out via a fluke punch. Dont like watching this

I thought the KD was a balance shot, he didn't look hurt by it.

can quillen stop winky? No one ever has.

Wright will probably think he won this fight he always does. :-X

Thinking shot. His legs have been having marital disputes from the early rounds on.

I'm enjoying the fight much more now. I guess this is the end of Wright.

All or nothing, a tad unlikely methinks.

Except for tonight, I don't recall Winky ever being knocked down, unless it was early in his career.

Hopefully main event will be fun. I think Tarver outboxes Kayode, but I'd be pleasantly suprised if Kayode can get to Tarver and make it fun.

I don't see the point of Winky continuing his career.

great point by Farhood. Why didn't wright take a tune up after this much time off. Then again if as Winky claims, no one would fight him, then why wasn't he just earning some paychecks on espn level fights and staying active???

hope he retires and stays retired.

match quillen with someone in his prime in the lower top 10 in the division. He is ready for that fight.

Dude, that was sad. Winky love ya bruh but stay gone. He didn't take a comeback serious. Good gameplan Quillin, he looked the goods.

Edit: Watching interview. Someone tell Quilin he didn't actually fight the fighter formally known as Ronald Wright. Good dedication though...Wright: It wasn't rust...your done. Respects.

Both men were fair in their interviews. Fair play to both men and props to Quillin who I didn't know much about.

I don't think the problem was nobody would fight Winky, it was Winky not wanting to fight for anything other than a title.

On to the main event, Antonio Tarver vs. Lateef Kayode, 12 rounds, cruiserweights.
