The Official Boxing Thread!!! - Part 4

InCali its Docker. If you are from Europe, he is going to look at you like you can't box.

 

[Poetic Chaos]

What a **** show

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Lomochenko has his limits though. He thinks he can keep gong up weights and not get hit by bigger and heavier guy's? Nah, his limit is maybe 140lbs tops.

He's a small guy. He'd have to put on some legit heft going past 140.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

What a **** show

What exactly happened?

 

[Poetic Chaos]

The NSAC head who made the decision that it was a KO for Rido just admitted he didn't even watch the tape with sound then said it was unequivocal that that the punch landed before the bell, which he would have no clue since he JUST admitted he didn't see tape with sound.

Ward's very, very good.....one of the best and one of my favorites but he doesn't have the toolbox Lomachenko has. If Arum (ie THE scumbag) had anything to say about it, the Salido fight wouldn't have been refereed the way it was. That was ridiculous. I get that you don't think someone should be able to leapfrog others without being tested and I understand that, but you aren't better because you've been around a long time or been tested (in fact I'm curious how Lomo will react if caught by a bomb). You're good because you're good. I think Lomo is THAT good. I've been wrong before, but I can't think of the last time I've seen someone with that kind of talent.

BTW, of course, 300 amateur fights isn't the same as 300 pro fights. No one could go through the pro grind 300 times (or, more closely, 400) and win virtually every single time; let alone live, BUT amateur pedigree does mean something and Lomo has done what virtually no amateur has done. Keep an eye on him.

I see your point but we agree to disagree until he fights Rigo. I don't know how he lost his P4P status after beating a top guy in Donaire but yet have a mystery guy just appear out of the blue and get a championship fight after 2-3 fights. That was my first red flag. And again, I think Loma is good but no way should he be given top 5 P4P status when his resume is not better than active fighters. Again, amateur fights are nothing compared to pro fights.

I KNEW someone would make it about race.

P4P status isn't eternal. Rigo has spent the last 4 years fighting crap.

Lomo wrecked Walters and Russell in that time period. Walters is better then anyone Rigo has beat.

I said he was European. What does that have to do with race?

You are projecting Docker.

 

[Docker2.0]

Lomochenko has his limits though. He thinks he can keep gong up weights and not get hit by bigger and heavier guy's? Nah, his limit is maybe 140lbs tops.

I agree with this. There's really only one guy I want to see him fight and that's Rigo. I've made this same claim against Terrence Crawford. Again, I'm sorry but his resume isn't that impressive. He has fought 2 guys but I do wonder how he'd do against a Broner, Garcia, Spence or Thurman...........guys he won't fight any time soon. One thing I will always say about HBO is that they know how to make you believe in their stars. The same thing happened with Provodnikov who got exposed once he left HBO or was about to leave.

Of course he does. Welterweight, IMO, is one of the toughest divisions to crack if you're moving up.

I just want to see him wreck Broner.

 

[Docker2.0]

Through 3 rounds, I have it 2-1 Ward. 1 and 3 going to Ward.

 

[Docker2.0]

Rounds 3-6, I give Ward 2 rounds to 1. And I'm being very generous giving Sergey a round. He looks exhausted!

 

[Docker2.0]

Got Ward by KO. Why you ask? I think Kovalev is going to come out hard early and give it all he got like an idiot due to his rage. I see him getting really winded around the 7th and to exhausted to continue. If the rumors are true coming out of his camp about him verbally abusing his trainer, how can you possibly give your all to someone you don't listen to or respect?

Did I call it? I don't know how HBO's Lederman's had Kovalev winning that fight.

 

[Iceman]

It's all over!

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Kovalev was clearly winning the fight, and then Ward started punching him low, and the ref just kept on letting him do it. And then he low blows twice clearly, and then the ref calls the fight. That was ridiculous.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Did I call it? I don't know how HBO's Lederman's had Kovalev winning that fight.

Because he was clearly winning that fight, and then the piece of **** started low blowing the hell out of Kovalev.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Even if he thought those were legit, calling the fight makes no sense. You just give a standing 8. The ref was embarrassing.

 

[Doc Samson]

Because he was clearly winning that fight, and then the piece of **** started low blowing the hell out of Kovalev.

You can't be serious, he was basically out on his feet that whole time from the punch to his JAW!! Piece of ****? Wow, really??

 

[Docker2.0]

Bro, he's projecting but yet he will find a way to turn this crap around. Kovalev was not winning this fight! But yet and still I'm the one who sees "race" in boxing.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

You can't be serious, he was basically out on his feet that while time from the punch to his JAW!! Piece of ****? Wow, really??

Yes. He hit him with a low blow him earlier in the fight, the ref warned him. He did it two more times in the final round, and the ref said they were clean (they weren't). He was hurting because he was hit low and then caught clean. He then him him, with two more at the end of the fight.

Yes, if you are going to throw numerous low blows in a fight, you are a dirty, cheating piece of ****.

 

[Iron_Stark]

Those were low blows. The only good one was the hook to the face, the rest were low.

Kovalev got a raw real again.
