WBSS Cruiserweight Series

[p4pking]

Not to rain on the thread, but since I cant find a way to watch anyways, why did they do another cruiserweight WBSS? I expect Breidis to come out on top now, but feel Gassiev was a little better than him, and hes moved up to HW now along with Usyk and Michael Hunter. In other words, the best fighters have left the division and its back to the no mans land it had been for years. Shouldnt be complaining against high level fights getting made I know, but literally any other weight class would have been more interesting.

I agree but they probably could not afford it in the other divisions and have these fighters and belts signed up.

Glowacki v Briedis is on next, do I do the rbr or wait for the Warrington fight?

The first round was close and both not committing to much but the second was more lively and the atmosphere sounds great there.

I missed the fight but Briedis wins controversially he elbowed Glowacki deliberately and should have been disqualified. Glowacki was knocked down twice and way after the 3rd round. Briedis even said he knew the bell went at the end of the round.

Briedis knew he would not get disqualified at home. The ref would not get out alive.

Dorticos isn’t a great fighter but he is good enough. He seemed to have the easiest path to the final.

The second fight was crazy. That elbow was uncalled for. I think it was in the moment of being frustrated by getting hit straight in the back of the head. I think the ref made the right call though. Glowacki sold it like it was a huge elbow. It was decent but not a full on elbow.

The bell sounded weird so I think the ref heard the bell but didn’t realize what it was. There is no way he didn’t hear it. It kept ringing for about ten seconds. Breidis was probably going to get him out of there either way. Good fight while it lasted.

Breidis should pretty easily beat Dorticos in the finals. He might stop him.

Just wstched Breidis v Glowacki, bizzare, terrible elbow from Breidis, really blatant and hard and the bell was ringing for quite some time before the ref stopped the round, let the polish chap get beaten up more and more.... Really crooked... Really bad elbow, really bad ref.

Breidis vs Glowacki was an absolute shitshow ....that ref was fucking atrocious. The ref had no confidence to step in, dude you're THE authority in the ring whether you like it or not you have to police the action!!!

Breidis should pretty easily beat Dorticos in the finals. He might stop him.

Breidis SEEMS to be a much better boxer but Dorticos can fucking punch. Boxers typically beat pure punchers, but Breidis doesn't always move his head and if he's plodding forward not moving his head then Dorticos will move it for him. Dorticos needs to paw with that jab, hook off it, feint with the right hand, lull Breidis into a false sense of security and then drop the hammer on him.




For however long it lasts it should be a fun fight, I hope both Tabiti and Glowacki recover well, Tabiti especially....a KO like that and he might never be the same fighter again.

You must be right there. Just seems to defeat the whole thing when there is a clear winner of the tournament and then they do another back to back to determine a distant runner up. Every other WBSS has been a great thing for fans and the respective divisions so far.
