Should be a good card

Cracking card.

Bookies make Cesar Cuenca the underdog (11/10). I thought he was impressive against Ik Yang. For a geezer that can't crack an egg, he showed why he's 48-0, constantly moving fast feet coupled with fast combo's.

I was going to back him then watched a bit of the Russian. He's not getting sparked, he looks massive for the weight, is a Richie Woodhall clone, has home advantage and can really bang. Troyanovsky (4/5) --- KO (2/1).

Alexander Povetkin, Mariusz Wach, Lebedev - Quotes - Boxing News

[Fenster]

Lebedev - KO (1/2)

Wach - (7/1) I read somewhere that Povetkin struggles with really tall fighters so avoids them (apologise if it was someone on here). Stupidist stat ever to base a bet on but sifting through his record he really hasn't faced many super tall funkers. Wlad defused him with ease (ignoring the shitloads of holding, if Mills Lane was the ref he's DQ'd) and he's struggled with a couple of other giants. So with Wach's height and bombproof bonce he's worth some money if you enjoy putting it down the drain like me.

Bold = pick and result.

Afolabi - Chakhkiev via ko


Povetkin - Wack via ko


Lebedev - Kayode via ko


Cuenca - Troyanovsky via pts via my heart

For some reason I thought he had a draw or two earlier when discussing him but 49/0 is impressive regardless. This is a tough one and talk about a set of hangers to fly to Russia to face this monster. I bet that other guy wouldn't do that or anyone else in the primadonna club. When you consider the power that Cuenca brings to the table it even takes a larger set to attempt that record on foreign soil. Its not that he cant crack an egg but its that he cant crack an egg yolk.

Should be a good card

Hopefully some decent feeds will be available.

Big fights as in physically big fighters? Because none of these fighters are any good.

Decent card. Been looking forward to this for a few weeks now. Nice to have some midweek boxing to pass time in work. Ive backed Chakhiev round 7-12 at 4/1ish. Think Olas finished and the Russian unibrow always impresses me. Cant see much value elsewhere. Cuenca fight should be quality. Id prob back Cuenca at odds against but can see him getting robbed.

Why isn't there billions of articles about Cuenca going for Marciano's "record," like there was earlier in the year when Floyd matched it, and like they'll be when Floyd comes out of retirement to "beat" it?

Hopefully it will no longer be Marcianos to beat = Cuenca 50-0

This is an excellent boxing event.

There is a PPV stream on BoxRec: BoxRec PPV

Because cuenca has 2 draws on his record which counts as a blemish.
