ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Kicks off in three hours here and not a bad card. Antoine Douglas 18-0-1 is on the fast track and faces Les Sherrington 35-7 from down under, middleweights. Undefeated human lawnmower Taras Shelestyuk 12-0 (8 ) meets 26-1-1 Aslanbek Kozaev in co main. Hoping for fireworks!

in a year or 2 he'll whip GGG
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
O'shanique Foster 8-0 in against 6-1 Samuel Teah Jr welter. Both have faced just one guy with winning record. Something has to give.
Physically Teah looks the stronger in 4th, Foster a bit uncertain and stuck on jabs end
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
This feels like Teahs to lose, faster, more accurate and moving Foster when he chooses. He needs to choose more often being the obvious underdog.
Foster corner no idea it was the last round, barks at him to KO Teah in final round :p. Foster doing nothing. Did he really call himself a Whitaker or Mayweather ???
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
79-73...77-75 x2 all Teah. Scores honestly surprised me. Judges nailed it :-X
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Ray Flores has to be one of the most terrifying ring announcers I've ever seen. 8-0 Keenan Smith fighting 10-1 Benjamin Whitaker now.
Apparently both did not know the contracted weight. Smith was told 143 (:vd:) and Whitaker 147...:author:

Damn, I hate this Daylight Savings Time change. These next two fights had better be good.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Good. No feeling out round.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Taras Shelestyuk 12-0 (8 ) and 26-1-1 Aslanbek Kozaev kicking off. Russian and Ukraine coming out to Bonecrusher and Diana Ross in Vegas ;D
I haven't talked to myself this much since I went to my ex's wedding based on endless potato salad
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Good action. I think I'd give the 2nd to the shorter Russian guy (Kovalev?). He shook the taller Ukrainian with an overhand right at the beginning of the round.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Oops, I meant Kozaev. Man, I suck at these Russian names. ;D
Pretty good fight so far. Punch stat numbers seem too skewed in favor of the Ukrainian.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Fight totally turned in one round. Kozaev appears to have shot his wad.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Shelestyuk pouring it on Kovaev 4th, skill gap showing huge all of the sudden. R Garcia threating to stop it over and over. I can't pronounce the name but this kid can fight.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Yeah, Sheles too good for this guy. I don't see it lasting more than this round or the next.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Looks like a massive Yuri Foreman with actual punch and swagger. May have just cursed the kid ;D Fun style to watch, fluid.

Yeah, damn... ;D
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Kozaev could still land one of those overhand rights, but Shele has too much movement for him.
Also, Kozaev's punches have lost some of their starch.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
All things considered not bad step for Shelestyuk but very much open book. Great hands early, times it out and coasts late with leaky defense.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Briefly dozed off, but ready for the main event. Hope it's good.
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
Douglas sharp and harsh early! Hope Sherrignton packed a luck after that kd. I thought they banned body tattoos and ads. That was huge for a while
Re: ShoBox Tonight: Douglas v Sherrington
I honestly don't know what I'd tell Sherrington in the corner right about now.
