Yes, Ran, throughout most of the fight. He fought like a survivor, he certainly did not fight to win. Urango came to fight and to win, unfortunately he was the only one. I had been lookin forward to this fight and am a Urango fan, I'll be the first to admit, his draw on his record is a generous one, and Mike Arnaoutis probably shoulda got the decision, for outBOXING Urango, this Rabah fella just outRAN him. Sure punchstats say he landed more, but thnk, did one of those punches ever do anything? Nope. I felt Urango won it legit by about 116-112 or 115-113. To me this fight was much like Hagler vs Leonard or Mayorga vs Spinks, a slower guy pressing the action while the other runs and runs and runs and tries to barely win rounds. I hope Urango fights Ricardo Torres or a worthy challenger and proves he deserves the title though, cus winnin it like this was just boring.
Ok hulk so if rabah ran...but seemingly landed more punches, what did urango do to win besides hit air all night and walk across the ring trying to cut rabah off? He did jackshit to win and he didnt win that fight. Just coz rabah was on his bike the whole fight doesnt mean he loses it coz he was landing punches at the same time when urango wasnt. Effective agression mate, rabah had it and urango did it. Its a fucking disgrace and how anyone can score that fight for urango i will never know!
Listen, I like ya man, we are both fellow Hatton Haters. But how can you look at what Rabah did and say he deserved to win? Boxing is one thing, Whitaker, PBF, Roy Jones, Hopkins have all fough aggressors and boxed their way to victory. It is differnt from what Rabah did, he didn't do shat. He ran and survived. Urango landed some good body shots and a few upstairs as well, he didnt run around, look foolish and swing at air constantly. It was a damn boring fight, but Urango at least tried to make it a FIGHT. Rabah just didn't do shat, at all. He won some rounds sure, where he would land maybe 3 clean punches and Urango wouldn't land at all. But no way he did enuff to win, he didn't even fight. Honestly neither man really did enuff to call themselves Champ, and take what was formerly Tzyu's title, but least Urango came to fight. I know you support your fellow Ausssies, but cmon man, I thought you liked fighters who had some balls. And came to WIN.
Dude yeah we get along good but i dont see how you could score it for urango. He came to fight...and he couldnt do it coz he was outboxed. Call it running but just coz rabah hit and wasnt hit it doesnt mean he should lose the fight coz he dont wanna brawl. It was a smart fight by Rabah and he was robbed plain and simple. Neither of them deserve to hold that title and i hope kostya watched this because if it had of been kostya in with either of these...it wouldnt of lasted two rounds. Urango couldnt even hit him, he walked forward...got jabbed and uppercutted and then would go for his telegraphed left hand and it would miss. He had nothing and thats what he hit. Pure robbery to say the least.
