Paul Williams vs. Nobuhiro Ishida - Saturday night fight thread

[Gandalf]

Yeah, Majesty I was thinking that too. So crude and a little bit of slickness and he looks out of his depth.

He needs to go for broke here because I have him down and increasingly so.

Another overhyped offensive minded fighter that got by because he had power but has had flaws shown in his armor along the way. Like I said Glen Johnson even exposed him a bit and since then I've felt like he was going to lose eventually, and tonight seems to be it. Dunno why people were hyping this guy like he was a world beater or something. I mean Tarver could get in that ring right now at Light Heavy and beat him.

[Gandalf]

And full credit to Campillo whatever happens because I had no idea who he was and he is really taking it to the champ. It's a fun, fun fight.

Cloud needs to go for broke. He needs a KO.

[Gandalf]

Cloud may have shaded that final round so that, round 1 and one of the middle rounds, but that's all I can give him.

Campillo has it, but I hate when boxers cruise at the end. It's too dangerous in this sport.

[ruthless rocco]

what

[ruthless rocco]

insane!

[Majesty]

Check on his mother!!

[ruthless rocco]

complete utter bullshit.

[Gandalf]

Unbelievable, unfucking believable.

[Gandalf]

That is an outrage. What was that second card all about?

I had it a couple of points in favour of Campillo. He won 9 rounds and the KD's made it closer, but he didn't deserve the nod. Not at all.

[CutMeMick]

DAMMIT, I lost a one month sig bet to Lyle on that shit.

Poor Campillo
I know you've followed him since the 1st Murat fight.

[OumaFan]

Didn't watch it but I've thought for a while now that Campillo was a solid fighter. Took Shumenov (granted not that good of a fighter) to school. I was surprised by all the Cloud KO picks in the prediction contest.

[Gandalf]

Giampa has it about right with 114-112.

116-110 to Cloud is criminal and that person needs a good slapping.

[Gandalf]

It's such a shame because it was such a good fight and you really saw someone rise against the odds to turn it all around. It is such a slap in the face for the fighter and I feel sorry for Campillo.

It leaves such a sour taste.
