"El Perro" Angulo vs. James Kirkland - Saturday "Fight Thread"

[captainanddew]

Kirkland was buzzed pretty bad by Allen Conyers in the first round of their fight. I think he stopped him that round. Not that that matters a whole lot here as Conyers isn't Angulo, but he seems to have first round issues (or maybe he just has chin issues). I didn't see the fight he got knocked out in. Maybe I should have watched that before I made my pick.

I don't think he comes out to box though. I'm not sure he can really, and I don't think he wants to. Hopefully he just comes out bombing and we see how long it lasts.

there is boxing writers who have stated that they were told that Kirkland had chin issues before he ever got dropped in a fight. I'm assuming they had heard about some issues seen in sparring. Couple that with what we have seen in the ring and he doesn't have a good chin.

I fucking love it when Roy Jones is doing commentary.

With that hair he looked like Tito for a minute. Buffer having muffled mic problems

McEwan had a pretty good effort against Andy Lee before getting stopped.

He really should have won that fight.

Mcewans right eye bruised up...neither taking command but Quillins physicality and pop starting to come through.

Quillin looks like Alfred ankamah or Andrew murray too...uh oh

Thirsty too

Suprised Mcewan is pushing him so easily. My God Quillin is slow. 1-1 even up here

[Spicoli]

Quillin is still pretty mechanical...bit of telegraphing things off the shoulder but he has natural strength.

Mcewan needs to settle down

[armin]

quick stopage but hell was comin sooner or later probably, if for nothin but due to they eye. Save the dude from punishment, and not hatin on the ref really
