Klitschko v Ibragimov - World Heavyweight Title UNIFICATION DRBR

[El Kabong]

I'd rather see Mora get what's coming to him than Duddy....I like Duddy and he's not a total twat.


Sergio Mora deserves an asswhipping

Round 5:

What is going on in the Duddy corner. Duddy opens to the body. Smiche with one as well, then Duddy lands a couple of jabs, then a right of his own. Duddy then caught by two big right hands, then a left hook. SMichet lands another right. Right hook and uppercross from Duddy,, then a great left hook, and a second from Duddy. Fantastic fight, and Duddy seems to have out-stamina'd Smichet in this round. Short straight shots from Duddy, then working to the body. Duddy moving better, and landing jabs. Duddy with a jab, big right hand, then another. Now its Duddy landing at will, but Smichet still lands another right. Good right hand from Smichet, who's rocking on his feet there.

Duddy's first round for me.
49-46

[No Contest]

[Saddo]

Round 6:

Smichet seems to have sagged a little at the start of this round, and Duddy jabbing and hitting to the body, then backs away from Smichet dodging a hook. Smichet looks to work the body. Nice uppercut from Duddy, who seems to have started boxing. Jab to the body, then a couple more up top. Smichet has landed nothing of note this round, but if he'd have had a full training camp, he might have beaten Duddy. Jab and right hook from Duddy. Smichet lands a right finally, but Duddy punches back, with another jab and hook. Right hand rocks Duddy's head, then a left, but Duddy looking much the stronger and better boxer now.

Duddy. 58-56

Round 7:

Did I say Duddy 58-56 Turn that around. Duddy's face looks horrible, but he seems to be looking better now. Boxing well early on again, and Duddy's figured out that going toe to toe with a guy who hits harder and doesn't cut as easy as you is not a good idea. Duddy is boxing well with jabs, then a fine right hook as Smichet looks to throw a jab. Overhand right lands from Smichet, but Duddy looks the fitter. Body shots from Duddy. Duddy gets his glove taped up, after the ref spots a bit of loose tape. Duddy hasn't shown anything we didn't know so far tonight. Good chin, check. Competent boxer at times. Check. Doesn't like to box and gets himself in trouble. Check. Duddy caught again, but still comes forward with jabs and body shots. Dodging well, then a body shot from Duddy with his back to the ropes.

Duddy's round, now nearly even.
67-66 to Smichet.

[El Kabong]

Go Duddy GO!!!

[Dizaster]

That how he wears his opponents down they get tired of hitting him in the face and he starts to take over.... I hope

Could this be true?

[CutMeMick]

I wanna see Duddy vs. Pavlik....

Come OOOOOOOOON! Duddy.

Round 8:

This has been a great undercard fight, and now its about who's got the gas and who's running on empty. Duddy still looking to box rather than trade, but Smichet still getting through occasionally. However, Duddy's workrate has stayed constant whilst Smichet's has faded away. Duddy's jab is landing well now, and body shots. He's not too imaginative, but is outworking Smichet, and trying to get out of the way when he can. Three nice jabs from Duddy. The pace has slowed in the second half of the fight, which helps Duddy more than those early rounds. Duddy then takes two hooks, then a right, in a brief effective Smichet flurry. Duddy pushing out the jab, and sliding away from Smichet's shots. Right hook in under the armpit.

Duddy's work gets him back on terms on my cards, though the judges no doubt will have him ahead by now.
76-76

[El Kabong]

It's the Homer Simpson/Randy 'Tex' Cobb style of fighting

[Violent Demise]

I wanna see Duddy vs. Pavlik....

Come OOOOOOOOON! Duddy.

I rather see Pavlik-Trinidad. Duddy it's obvious would get smashed

Round 9:

After his disastrous start, the firm jab seems to have won this one for Duddy, and work out SMichet, and he uses it again early on in this round. Smichet gets in the overhand right, which seems to have lost its zip since he realised he couldn't budge Duddy with it. Duddy circling and picking Smichet off with jabs. Smichet with an uppercut, then they rtrade hooks. Smichet coming forward, with one hook glancing on #Duddy's hed. Then a nother big right hand. They go back to trading, and Duddy lands a hook then a jab. Duddy backs off and goes back to jabs, then a straight right. Duddy's stamina gives im that round, and better than Smichet now.

86-85 Duddy

[superheavyrhun]

Round 10:

this is only a 10-rounder, and Duddy comes out for the last round. They trade off early on, but Duddy going to the body twice. The ref then demands another look at Duddy's gloves. Duddy's done well to overcome cuts to both eyes and big shots. Hook then uppercut from Duddy, but then takes a right from Smichet. Duddy boxing this one out now, picking up the jabs and staying away. Then he takes a left hook then a right. Duddy jabs, but another right hook comes over his extended left hand into his mushed mush. Uppercut from Smichet, but Duddy's jab and straight shots are winning him this one. His jab is good, but the defence still looking as useful as a paper stab-vest. Duddy has gutted this one out, and Smichet is calling Duddy in as we draw to a close. He's looking for the last shot, and a big right hand.

Duddy wins, but close one for me.
96-94 And big doubts about Duddy's ability to step up to a higher level ie Kelly Pavlik

[Tysonbruno]

I'm going to pick Ibragimov to win tonight
