Friday Night Fights thread

[Gandalf]

A thread for the Teddy Atlas show and maybe even some boxing. Basketball currently on, but boxing is just around the corner.

Basketball is such a drama show. Not to mention boring as fook.

Do you want drama, serious acting and some of the best comedy I've ever seen? Watch any pro soccer game on earth.

Different class of fighters than the previous fight. These guys look tough.

[Gandalf]

Nip and tuck close, they throw hard, take it, and throw on back. Difficult to score.

[Gandalf]

Petrov maybe slightly busier and landing more, but close.

I used to love basketball as a child, but now it just pisses me off. Who gives a shit about either one of these teams anyway. Put on boxcino!!!!

[Spicoli]

Woah..Rudd built like a middle in the shoulders. But on paper Amidu is levels above

[Spicoli]

Nice lil fisticuffs kicking off in 2nd!

[Gandalf]

Good fight, streams a bit choppy though, so struggling to score it.

[Spicoli]

Rudd sabotages his height badly...but I think hes winning here about 3-2

Edit: Have Chris Rudd by 4-2 Just..cleaner, volume and had him staggered bad. Now if it was a 12'er, an old vet like Amidu might have caught up

I still love basketball but the more you learn about how dirty it is it makes me wonder why. The NCAA is inept. With three minutes of research you can find loads of dirt on Kansas and Kentucky but the NCAA doesn't bat an eye when all the best players go there.

Boxing is on!

The draw breaker round is cool but I became very uncomfortable when they mentioned fans deciding it if it was still a draw after 7. That would suggest at least one judge scored the 7th even which suggests it was a very close round since judges are encouraged not to score rounds even. So fans deciding a very close round, no thanks. That's not professional.

Me either but I do like the concept of tie-breaker

It def puts added pressure on judges and fighters. A great step in thinking out of the box but in no way should fans...let alone Facebook fans...decide a fight. Might as well just flip a Buffalo nickle and call it.

I have not scored a round even in about 6 yrs. Just have to find some distinction or advantage. Divide the round if need be
