Fights. They be on :feedme:
Anthony Gangemi 4-1 (3) vs Wendy Toussaint 3-0 1st up
Emmanuel Taylor 17-1 (12) takes on Chris Algeri 18-0 (8) in a solid Jr welter go
Toussaint is half Merqui Sosa and part emmanuel Augustus. Throws punches that started yesterday.
Toussaint wins a split call over 4 rounds.
Kinda is kinda winning;D
Watching a long fighter waste his length and make himself small has to be my greatest pet peeve. It's so frustrating and I don't even have a rooting interest
Not watching tonight, house setting for friends. Give me the results, please, if you keep watching.
Not sure I've ever seen a fighter born in "Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso" ???
They needs to wear helmuts here, getting very physical
Same. I used to get so frustrated watching Williams fight like he was 5 feet tall with a Marciano reach. Kept waiting for him to turn into another Hearns.Quote:

Must be way off the FB scores...have Kinda still leading about 4-2, but his head often out runs his sharp punches. Ugly.
Dear god, Kinda just did a 360 spinderella move. Bryan takes round cleaner all around boxer. Have it even up...76-76 at final bell.
Yup. Hello Mr rinse and repeat, I'd like you to meet Mr. rinse and repeat.Quote:

Very cool of Paulie. Huge props. Great little fighter. Chuvalo chin.
Just when you're ready to toss this seedy backroom of a sport into the bin...good on Paulie!
I don't usually like human interest pieces, they often have a hint of self service that's off putting. But that's damn cool of Paulie Ayala helping those people for free(really beyond free because that's time he can't train paying customers and the expense of having the gym open)
Nice little atmosphere in that place, looks like the Blue in Philly
I have a sneaking feeling Taylor is going to ring true in what he said :-X
All Chris Algieri in 1st round. Taylor better wake up
The upper body difference is pretty noticeable.
2-0 Algieri, but he has some holes when Taylor does push, looks like a sheet drying in a gusty wind when backing up pure defensive
Taylor needs to start using the uppercut when Algieri bends and freezes with the earmuffs on.
Teddys with me, uppercut is there. Follow it up with left hook right cross. But he's got to take advantage of that uppercut at least.
3-1 Algieri, doing ok but he just reminds me a guy you just wait for the wheels to fall off under sustained attack. Looks like a bundle of nerves
4-2 Algieri...Taylor better realize there is only one way he wins this fight..
Algieri has much more talented fists but he doesn't have very good awareness. I think that's why he can't transition from defense to offense.Quote:

Have 97-93 at final. Should get a solid earned win. Not sure who that 'big name' is they may step up to, but choose wisely
Yeah, interesting mix though. You could see him decide what he was going to do before he did it but he had the talent with his hands. It looked to me like Taylor saw the fight really well but his body lacked the talent to reply to what he saw.Quote:

Another shit night of fights IMO. Dismal....Alegeri looked good, but nothing spectacular.
Yes that was boring but still like the boxing news.
Cynics. You cant get a Foty every time you watch fights lol.
The USA just beat Russia in a shoot out.
There were no knockouts. No knockdowns. No one was even wobbled. No action no boxing clinics. It was like watching 3 mediocre sparring matches.Quote:

Now now Spicock, we've been developing a blossoming, beautiful boxing nerd friendship here, no need to go pissin on it. lol
It was a shit card. You know it was a shit card. We all know it was a shit card.
Didn't fastforward through it, should have though.
I know full well it is boxing and watch more than my share of it. But, when its shit, its shit.
Wonderful. Thanks for the top analysis. I actually didn't mind back story and the main event at all or learning a new fighter ffs. We're fortunate to even have weekly cards chief.Quote:

You should buy the world a coke and live in perfect harmony.
I am not as much of an optimist.
You might even be able to see the good in Tyson Fury. ;) lol
