Erickson Lubin v Terrell Gausha on Showtime

[TitoFan]

Three rounds in the books and Gausha has landed maybe 5 punches.

Snoozefest so far.

[Spicoli]

It is telling. All the talk of Charlo ppv coming up and set to unify all belts. Here's the guy he starched..same network and promotion but little push for easily made rematch.

Best advise from Cunningham...don't be lulled to sleep with that bullshit

[Spicoli]

4th to Gausha. Maybe. Even the corner of Gausha whispers . Someone open a bottle and start this fight already

"Nothing to see here" 1st round between Lubin and Gausha.

accurate. Got stuck making a BLT. They keep this up I'm making another. Gausha just has that pedestrian ho hum ohh look a penny style.

BLT sounds good.

[Spicoli]

Hey Lubin woke up in 8th. We have a fight punches being thrown! Gausha getting a right in midway. I miss Paulie on this announce team..big time. Abner Mares is a nice enough guy but he calls fights like a nervous dude awkwardly asking a waitress for her #.

[Spicoli]

Ohhh Lubin rocked! Give it give it.

[Spicoli]

Gausha had him badly hurt in 10th and took 11th. Not a good look for Lubin going into final round.

[TitoFan]

Too little too late. But at least Gausha can say "I rocked him."

It was an alright fight. A few years back, I was pretty high on Lubin. I definitely think he can eventually win a title and I think he will, but I don’t know if his chin will be good enough to him to dominate a division.

[TitoFan]

I think Bernstein accurately put it around the 7th round that the fight had started a round ago.

Waaayyy too tentative for the first entire half of the fight... and Lubin did precious little to try and impress.

I thought Gausha decided halfway through he wasn't in real danger of a highlight reel knockout and began to press the action, winning somewhere from 1-3 rounds.

Crap fight.

Thank goodness I had already seen the Tug-Breedy fight.

@TitoFan I saw your paisano Pedraza won. He looked pretty impressive. He just can’t get over that hump though. He is just below world class

Yep... that is a good description. He inhabits that area where there just isn't room for him at the very elite level. This also happens to fighters who sometimes have the bad fortune of coexisting with a slew of top notch talent in one division.
Pedraza's a good guy and very dedicated. I hope he can continue to make a mark on boxing for awhile.

Ennis turning it up in 5th jarring Abreu and lands hard on the beltline, Abreu looks for a time out and ref says keep fighting. In turn Abreu hits Ennis in his Ennis Jr and both warned. Ennis walking in behind high shoulder guard and landing left hooks..and down he goes. Abreu flat and up at 8! Abreu not long for this. Beautiful inside right uppercut counter got the KD, very fluid

thats how steve forbes knocked out julio sanchez leon.



a while ago it used to be that, if you missed a right hand, you'd bring your right arm across your face, sort of like a face bar, so you could catch that counter in palm of your right glove.



if you watch all the old fights you will see guys doing that often. i think it might have something to do with how fighters used to throw that counter more often. it is nice to see someone that can still do that today, even if no one else knows how to keep from getting hit by it today.
