Ha yes, it happened a bit in the second round already..

I think James jabs good though, I think he should stick with that, butaev doesn't seem to have a lot of urgency to chase him down when he does that... Big punches landed by both now... I think James is edging the damage thouhj(3rd round)

Butaev lands the over arcing Superman punch ffs ;D. This has gone wheels off already and both free swinging with hard shots. Butaev has him cornered

This is pretty fun, butaev is showing some urgency and going for it in the fourth, James is getting some good stuff in too though, good stuff from the Russian in the fourth, i suspect this might not last the distance.

Butaev comes from these freaky angles now all with power. James there walking to him..and ref docks a point for ??? what exactly. Both open up and exchange to end round

This is a good fight, James landed a good uppercut, wait what was the deduction for?. James is really ducking down a lot I think he's not having fun... He's definitely is this despite a couple of good rounds by butaev.

Bloody ell the Russian is just jumping in with punches now and James isn't stopping them, I can see butaev burning out though, butaev deffo looks more comfortable at the mid point though.. Great fun!

James in bit of a hole as it goes. That uppercut is live though. Butaev leaps in with the right like he's filming a fuckin Marvel movie ;D. Tough tough physical fight this

His leaping has been working :S... What is James doing... To be fair he isnt folding, although butaev really landed some nice body punches in the seventh, although one looked low and considering they took a point already im surprised the ref let it go..


I really think James should be winning this easily, he really hasn't taken advantage of his range... It's probably very even on the cards though, James does land good stuff too.

Butaev is really getting some nice power on those body punches, he's missing upstairs though, James really doesn't look too well...

Missed it ref just waved it ?! Gotta see replay but Butaev closed hard

Neccessary but unexpected timing of stoppage?

Yeh that was trash, he missed all four shots there. maybe the blood panicked ol ref but very odd timing

Ref stopped it... I'm not sure about that, for sure James wasn't looking good but I don't think he was taking too much there, butaev was working his body good but I don't think James was in grave danger... James doesn't complain much though so maybe the ref was right.

Felt it was coming if we're honest
