Sakio Bika underated

[Dark Lord Al]

So you consider a man stepping up from 160 lbs to 168 lbs a blown up middle , however you lorded Steve Cunningham for being a real HW , you make me smile with your double standards , an 8 lb jump is to much , however trying to fight a guy 45 lb above your natural weight is ok , is that what you are saying ?
Were Benn ,Eubank ,Toney , RJJ , McCallum ,Barkley , Nunn etc real super Middles or blown up Middle weights ?
Please explain what you mean.
As for Bika he is a tough fighter , but can be outboxed.

Compare Cunninghams physique with any other fighter at cruiser and try telling us that isn't a heavyweight cutting down to cruiser...

They graduated up there, they werent made to jump a weight to be name fodder

Also, yes I realise that Bika can be outboxed but the whole point of this thread is because Bika looks crude that someone as shit as Chavez Jr would not only stand a chance but wipe the floor with Bika when he cant even cut it against mediocre middleweights.

Bika is not a boxer, he is a fighter. He's crude and very, very rude/dirty in the ring. His days as a champion are limited even though he does have the heart of a champion.
Anthony 'The Idiot' Dirrell had the belt in his hands and let it slip away!

That about covers it.

Not really. Even if he hadnt ran like a twat in the last round he wouldnt have won, or shouldnt have. Even the commentators who were american had Bika ahead by 2 points and that accomodating the point deduction and knockdown!

He let him off the hook a couple of times @ross and the announcers well.....they are announcers. He hit a wall mentally after round 5. That was pretty evident last night

I thought Dirrell did enough for the win.

Sakio Bika has to be the hardest working supermiddle in the world today.

This past year he has fought 3 young undefeated class super middles. Genuine super middles, not dehydrated light heavies or blown up middles or faded names but 3 ambitious hungry, fresh undefeated fighters. He was unlucky not to get the win last night as he made the fight the whole night.

Bika is what he is, you know exactly what you are getting. Your moneys worth!

I hope he gets a big name opponent soon. He will make good money against Chavez Jr and if Chavez cant legitimately beat or even hurt Brian Vera who has been knocked out before, hes in for a rude awakening against Bika!

I love Bika, he's one of my favorite fighters and I've been calling for Chavez Jr. to try Bika for a year now.

Really felt a draw was fair against Dirrel, considering the point deduction and knockdown. Bika did indeed bring the fight, while Anthony was pretty lazy in there.

Sakio Bika deserves another big fight. He was in about 3 x the shape Kirkland was Saturday.
