115-111 Provo. On replay had Algieri nicking the 8th. 5th was his first strong round of substance boxing I thought, and the 7th was a microcosm of the fight.
I think Algieri just nicked it, it was one of them fights you could not scream and shout about who,
the clear winner was,! it was a good entertaining scrap.![]()
Algieri deserves full credit and major respect, because the kid showed HUGE heart. He got off the deck and took charge with an eye that was closing rapidly since the first round. Reminded me of JMM/Pac 1.
Listen, I understand pro boxing is not amateur boxing and it isn't necessarily about who lands more. But when you got a guy landing so clean consistently and the power puncher is having most of his shit blocked and is not being effective with that aggression and power, you can't just give him the round over the clean, effective shots.
I guarantee you guys if you watch the fight without the commentary, you'll score more rounds for Algieri. Jim Lampley is fucking HORRIBLE for overreacting to blocked and/or missed punches. He's always done it.
I was just making sure I wasn't going crazy. Steve weisfeld kept scoring rounds for Provo that I thought algieri clearly won. It was a close fight so I wouldn't have thought it would have been a bad decision either way but I'm just surprised that the judges weren't told before the fight that Provo is their guy so make sure he wins.
I had Algieri well ahead on rounds.
Not so much on pts due to the knockdowns.
Can't remember exactly but it was like 115-111 Algieri.
You say tomato,
‘n I say …… it correctly.
Ruslan should of never let him get out of the first
I had it a draw counting the knockdowns. Thought Algieri was gone in round two when they went back to their corners.
