The Price KO? How bad Chavez Jr looked? Arreola in a draw?
I'm sure something in boxing surprised you this weekend.
Quigg beating Martinez so quickly after that first round. I worried he was in for a long night. Frampton struggling too was a shocker.
The shitty ref in Arroyo fight deducting Villanueva a point for butting, then Arroyo does it and causes a cut, no deduction. Then the scorecards at the end, just seemed like the filipino was up against more than his opponent.
Gotta go with Quigg, I fancied him to stop Martinez but was gunning for the 5th or 6th, after seeing the first round I thought it was going to be a tough night for him, the second round KO shocked me massively.
Price didn't really surprise me, I wasn't expecting it but it didn't shock me
Cesar Cuenca has only 2 KOs in 48 fights. He gave Ik Yang, who was meant to smash the powderpuff puncher, a whooping.
That Price lasted 2 rounds with such a dangerous puncher.
That has to be the worst KO % in the history of "world champions".Quote:

The wba is using a new review system and ten judges for the controversial draw between Anthony Crolla v Darleys Perez.
What is this dark magic? Judges being reviewed and held accountable ???
The fact that there was live boxing on terrestrial television in the UK was probably the biggest surprise for me.
At this rate even the BBC will show some. Actually, now I'm just being ridiculous.
Frampton getting knocked down twice in the first round was very surprising for me.
I'm most surprised by how people thought Quigg looked in trouble in the 1st round. Kiki won the round but Quigg landed 3 hard, flush counters. It looked like Quigg could end it soon but everyone keeps saying "after the first round...." As if Kiko dominated.
I was there and was saying how small the ring looked and it surprised me. Kiko walked him down well and Scott didn't do much and looked like he would struggle to get away, also nothing he threw at Kiko bothered him in that first round and Kiko landed a few solid shots himself.Quote:

For me it was just how good Amir Imam is.
Crolla fighting out of his skin and getting robbed - antony did better than expected but nothing shocking
Frampton dropped twice in 1st going to a decision - depends how much you rate frampton, the knockdowns were a surprise but hasn't changed opinion of him too much
Abraham getting a conclusive finish over his rival - I expected abs to do the business this time and he did it even better than we thought
Quigg blowing Martinez away- this was the shock of the night for me. I rate quigg but thought he was in for a long night and expected him to wear Martinez down around the 10th. Martinez got off to a good start n looked dangerous but quigg taken it to a new level. Better than we all thought. No wonder frampton wants no part of him
Arreola probably sealed his title shot with that performance.Quote:

Wait what about others judges being judge and overturned is that new thing i missed. Oh wait maybe your joking i did not see anything this weekend and the tough of a judge having to actually be held accountable is to good to be true maybe you were being sarcastic.
Nah true story ;D The plan is working because now I'm posting wbc links ;DQuote:
