Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

G'day! :cheers

IB's RBR disclaimer:

DO NOT ASK FOR LINKS! Do not hint for them. Do not ask "what channel?". Do not make any post that could be interpreted as insinuating a link request, even if it sounds innocent (ie stuff like "Gee, I don't have a way to watch this" or "if only this was televised where I live...")

All that stuff will a) get you banned and b) clutter up my thread with quickly deleted posts. The folks at ESB do not want to get sued and therefore have adopted a VERY strict policy of zero-tolerance on stream requests to cover their butts. The moderators DO enforce this policy. The moderators are doing what they're supposed to be doing and should only take action if you are breaking rules. Please don't clutter up my threads with posts that are going to get deleted and muck up each page. It's unseemly and disrupts everyone else's enjoyment.

Thank you.

PS. My only other rule in these threads is that, as a matter of courtesy, you refrain from posting spoilers if you are aware of undercard results that most people are going to see televised on delay. Also, if there are two events going on at once keep all discussion of the other card in its own thread, and don't cross-contaminate with spoilers between the two. Thanks.

Re: Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

Sonny Bill Williams is sensationally talented. He is a World class athlete

Botha is a tough old son of a bitch. It should be an interesting bout

Re: Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

Botha by early KO unless dark forces are at work.

Re: Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

Cooper's opponent is a fat insurance salesman with a 1-1 pro record. :!:

I slept through most of the undercard. :oops:

Re: Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

Quade Cooper vs. Barry Dunnett, 4 rounds @ cruiserweight

Re: Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

And cooper is a over rated rugby player with a bad attitude...praying for a career ending ko for both sports :D

Re: Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

With more experiance Freddie Flintoff could an excellent Heavyweight boxer like SBW

Re: Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

:think Despite his unassuming boxing record, Dunnett apparently has quite a bit more extensive combat sport experience than Cooper.

He's supposedly got 15 bouts in Muay Thai, in which he was a "title contender"...

Re: Sonny Bill Williams vs. Francois Botha RBR
 

Round 1

Dunnett is charging in and backs Cooper to the ropes with hooking combos up top. Dunnett advances with a floating guard, fists rolling under his chin. Cooper backpedals quickly and puts out right hand leads. Big shot by Dunnett, Cooper stunned! Dunnett keeps hooking his way in as Cooper dances away. 1-2 by Cooper, and Dunnett is on his knees. Dunnett is up but shaky. He follows Cooper around and walks into a jab, wobbling. 1-2 by Cooper. Dunnett down and out.

KO1!

Cooper has very fast hands. Ne needs to work on his footwork, but this was not bad.
