First off yep Ishe is getting another opportunity ;D. Actually not a bad match for J Rock after Jermall Charlo absolutely demolished him last year.
Featherweights Tugstsogt Nyambayar 8-0 and Harmonito Dela Torre 19-0 are set for 10 rounds also.
Opener has the making of a good scrap. Lets see if King Tug reframes from elbows :-X. Guy has some quality punch placement. Know nothing of this Dela Torre fella. Tug takes 1st.
Tugstsogt completely controlled 2nd right up until last 20 when Dela Torre drops him with huge straight right! If I'm on points go 9-9 regardless of 10 point must system :-X. Guy definitely bigger than King Tug.
Dela Torre rocked beginning of 3rd. Tug very nice to watch when gets into punch rhythm. King Tug back in control 3rd.
Tug does stay straight line though, slight lean in and backing waiting for crisp combo counters. Close round and pick your style..think Tug edged it.
Tug Jab really on Dela Torre in 5th. Nice short strong jab moves Dela Torre back and opens a cut then dislodges his mouth piece. Dela Torre is not shy though and closes with a big right of his own.
Nice in and out power boxing by Nyambayar in 6th. He only grows stronger as fights go. With only 9 starts in nearly 3 years like to see more of him.
What a clean right hand and literally sends mouth piece flying and Dela Torre hangs on. This guy is a sharp shooter! Well at this stage.
annnd again as much as I like Austin Trout, he shouldn't score fights ;D.
Why isn't this kid on HBO if you can show a Seldin ffs ;D. Piston puncher and has wobbled Dela Torre couple times in final round, the right hand cannot miss. Impressive showing.
Scores 79-73..78-73 x2 for King Tug win.
Dec 8th looks like they are cashing out Ahmed Elbiali. Pascal going to school em!
Man I swear who dresses Mayweather ;D. Lionell Thompson 18-4 v Earl Newman 10-0-1 next up.
Conservative but smarter 1st by Thompson. Newman looks massive for lt hvy 6'3 or 6'4
2nd comes down to two good combinations by Thompson near end. Like a man just chipping away on stationary Newman.
Ohhhh nice quick uppercut rocks Newman in 3rd, great counter! Newman rocked in corner and again giving a standing 8 count??? We bring that back? Thompson getting cocky in control. Newman needs to wake up already.
That standing 8 essentially saved Newman. Very off call by Robert Byrd. Newman hurt again!
Newman has zero punch resistance, just awkward hurt and needs to be stopped. Down for a count but looks done! Thompson huge 3rd and 4th.
Newman told step it up or it's over by corner and does so in 5th. Sturdier and tight guard and pressing Thompson hard. Thompson one of those guys who will not be remembered or ranked but just decently skilled boxer all around. 5-0. Judges better not be drinking tonight :-X.
Counter right short circuits Newman yet again in 6th. Dude is trying to recoup and work jab but he just cannot be missed by slicker Thompson.
Devolves into some nasty clinching and inside struggle in 7th and ref admonishes but. Newman round on Thompson falling into that mess. 6-1
Newman needs to kick in the door this round, touches Thompson and Thompson reacts and shrugs. Both look bit tired and Newman powering in 8th..finally. Newmans best round so far. 6-2 Thompson
Better pressure Newman then lands low blow. Thompson far less busy with any form of a combination. Stab and get away. 6-3 Thompson
Thompson getting off again in 10th and jabs head to body. Can see urgency in Newman but he's in a massive hole point wise. Smart round by Thompson box and get out. Ok he goes Bolt last 10 seconds ;D.
Not a close fight but they are talking like it. With 2 kds have 97-91, at most 96-92 Thompson.
Scores in at 97-91 twice...96-92 Thompson. Good win for him.
Main event time! I just hope Smith came here to win and lets the hands GO.
1-1 after two with Smith really jawing at Williams end of 2nd. Nasty cut result of head butt on left eye of Smith. Williams boxing and timing well in 3rd. Smith has to know it's his fight to pressure, he's paying a price for it. 2-1 Williams
Looked like a counter uppercut clipped Smith for kd but ruled slip. Smith not wearing these subtle shots well. Now warned for LB ???. 3-1 Williams
Smith rolling in some shots mid 5th. Clean but wide punches have Williams reacting and looks bothered. Smith warned again for low shots? Smith coming on late. 3-2 Williams
4-2 Williams
Ohh big short counter right rocks Williams last minute of 7th. Good round for Smith annnd they butt heads again ref breaks action. Smith busted up but he can win this pours it on. 4-3 Williams
Tough 8th, Williams cleaner 5-3
Not pretty but Ishe again putting work in 9th with short shots. Absorbs hard gut shot. 6 punch combo by Smith has Williams shell up and roll out. Experience gap clear as day as is the wear and tear. Williams has zero answers for Smith massive rally end of 9th, literally throwing everything is Smith. 5-4 Williams
Wtf and another head butt has Smith doubled over in 10th! Ref asks if he wants to continue???. Williams getting in hard rights but Smith with the beard.
Dude. Solid action and both exchanging end of round, honestly flip a coin on this. Barley slightest margin Williams takes 10th and 6-4 but scores could be all over the place.
Scores in 99-91...98-92...97-93 Williams. First two total horseshit. Smith looks like someone hit him with a hatchet over eye.
Good read Spicoli and nice work.
Agreed. Always enjoy your round by rounds when I can’t watch the fight
I think that's the best Ishe fight I've seen since he was a prospect. He still makes a good gatekeeper around the weight. I had it a lot closer than the judges cards but feel the right guy got the win.
Appreciate it fellas turned out to be a pretty entertaining trio of fights. Alpha I usually hold my nose near Smith fights but he really did step it up and guaranteed that gate position stays put. Fought all out. In a way he goes forward equally as we've seen the best from Williams that we'll see imo. Be interesting to see what direction the go with him, bad news is his highest ranking only gets him closer to the other Charlo.Quote:
