I was watching the Andre Dirrell fight, and missed this fight. But i just see on boxrec that Joan Guzman won a SD, did anyone see this fight ? and did Joan Guzman deserve the nod ?

Actually its just starting now but i don't know, if i'll be able to watch it. Because its very late here now, might download it tomorrow im getting very tired.
I tried watchin it while also watching the abraham dirrel fight. I felt like guzman took the first two rounds, a 10-8 in the fourth and maybe won the 11th or 12th...I felt like he wasn't doing enough really in the last rounds to get them , mostly running/walking away from funeka, lederman gave like the last four to guzman. Funeka should have definitely gotten the decision just to say "f you" to guzman for comin in 9pounds over weight, and funeka getting screwed in the first fight.
I'll do a RBR aswell actually for aslong as i can stay away![]()
Round 1
Ok here we go guys/girls Joan Guzman starts out circling, not much happening. Ali Funeka trying to get the jab working, Guzman with a jab to the body. Guzman with another jab to the body, followed by a right up top. Funeka missing with the jab, can't find the range as of yet. Guzman going to the body with the jab mostly, attmpted lunging left hook blocked by Funeka, Guzman with a right hook to the body. Funeka can't seem to find the range yet, Guzman making him miss. Both men exchange good punches. Funeka with a right hand over the top, finding the range a bit better. Guzman with an uppercut then a shot to the body.
Guzman wins a close tactical round.
Guzman 10-9
Round 2
Guzman with a double right hook, again being elusive making Fuenka miss. Lovely body work by Guzman, making Funeka miss. And making him pay on the inside, Funeka with a right hook the body. Guzman returns with a body shot of his own, Guzman with the uppercuts on the inside. Seems similar to the first fight so far, both men exchange punches on the inside. Guzman making Funeka miss with excellent upper body movement. Right hand from Funeka, nice right hook by Guzman. Left hooks from both men, clubbing right from Guzman.
Guzman wins the first two rounds just like the first fight.
20-18 Guzman
Round 3
Guzman almost trips over lol, not much else to report at the moment. No punches landed so far. Right hand from Funeka, left hook counter from Guzman. Guzman gets warned for holding on the ropes then trying to punch, Funeka with the jabs. Guzman missing with his trademark right hand, double jab from Funeka. Guzman defending well, right hook to the body from Guzman. Lovely defensive work from Guzman, left hook from Funeka. Body shots from Funeka, left hook from Funeka.
Just like the 1st fight, Funeka turns it around in the 3rd round.
29-28
Funeka's round.
Ok guys im off to bed now lol peace.
He probably deserved the decision, or at least a case could be made that he did. I was so disgusted with him and the ridiculous showboating he did throughout the fight that I lost any real interest in what was probably a very entertaining fight. Guzman is a piece of shit, he acted like a piece of shit from the weigh-in to the end of the fight, and I hope he never gets another big payday. I also hope that Funeka gets to fight for the vacant belt again. He deserves it.
How in the hell did Funeka lose? He's like a foot taller than Guzman...
Guzman outboxed him with the gameplan he should have had in the first fight.
he deserved the nod.
Him coming in 8 pounds overweight is not erased by it.
Yes he won, but it's a victory that means nothing right now.
He needs to retire or move up to 140, or maybe even 147 after tonight.
Guzman knocked Funeka down and won the fight pretty easily.
Of course not trying to make weight surely aided him.
But so did good boxing skills and a good game plan.
Def wasn't a fair fight though.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
A meaningless win, but that is no slur on Funeka who I really like. I used to like Guzman, but he is now on my loath list.
Guzman proved that last time he was clearly affected by the busted nose, cuts and inactivity...
oh yeah and the weight cheating thing helped this time.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
