Dmitry Bivol vs. Jean Pascal November 24th on HBO

[Freedom]

Israil Madrimov takes on a tough opponent in his pro debut, and wins by TKO. I have a new fighter to follow.

Here's a legal Russian stream for tonight's event: http://fanat.tv/channels/1-match-boets

Akhmadaliev bouncing around like a ping pong ball. I'm just glad to see an arena with fans actually 10+ rows back after Morocco and Kansas cards .

Lederman struggling with his pronunciation. Not impressed with Ak too much. Wasting endless energy is OK against a brewery worker but if you're doing this at a higher level and your vaunted punching power isn't making a dent you're going to run out of steam. And this guy can't stop a part time boxer.

Ref waves it off in 9 after wide wind up right lands. Agree Kirkland, work to do. Lamps and Kellerman need to calm the "young Duran likeness" stuff.

I might come to miss that kind of over fluffed up HBO hype

No mention at all that network is at the end and Lampley says HBO can spend whole next year following division, bit odd.

He's definitely not a dead ringer.

I'd love to see somebody with the Duran attitude at the top level again.

Pascal about to impersonate a young gazelle if he keeps getting clipped like this and only the 2nd.

[Kirkland Laing]

Not going well for Pascal. I wonder who they're going to compare Bivol to.

[Spicoli]

3-0 Bivol very calculated, Pascal just hoping on the one shot counter brick. Like Bivol stabbing jab to the body
