The 'what fights did you watch today?' thread

Judah vs Mayweather

Apart from the first two rounds, Mayweather pretty much dominated. I noticed that he didn't do his jab-and-move stuff and put pressure on Judah. Very good performance.

 

Trinidad vs Comacho. Good performance by Trinidad, if not a very entertaining fight.

 

Yep, although Hirofumi Mukai is a very recent example of stepping up too soon backfiring (at least in the short-term). Then again, I think Tobe is a better prospect than Mukai is :good

No problem :thumbsup

 

Hernan Marquez vs Luis Concepcion. Epic fight both guys took some huge flush shots. Concepcion was to right hand happy, his left looks like its just there to disguise the right but he leaves himself open to the counter right that Marquez landed at will. Good fight though :good

 

These smaller guys rule, really enjoying re watching some of the lower weight class brawls Any of you guys recommend some Flyweight/S fly classics i might of missed?:thumbsup

 

Watched Razor Ruddock vs Philip Jackson. Sometimes I forget how good Ruddock was once. He had good speed, boxing skill, and one punch ko power. If he had been in an easier era he probably could have been champion. His left hook was devestating against Jackson, who put up a good fight. Ruddock put him down suddenly in the 3rd with a counter left hook and another left hook put Jackson down for the count in the fourth. I believe this fight was right before his bout with Lennox Lewis.

 

Watch any of the following Jung-Koo Chang bouts: first and third fights with German Torres, first fight with Hilario Zapata, Katsuo Tokashiki, Amado Ursua, etc.

A couple are on Youtube. The best action fight would have to be against Tokashiki. One of Chang's best overall performances. Some of the stuff in that fight (particularly the 7th round, if I recall correctly) will blow you away.

The Ohashi fights are great as well, although they feature a Chang clearly on the downslide.

 

Watch Humberto Gonzalez's fights with Saman Sorjaturong and Michael carbajal. Both were great fights.

BTW if you can find them watch both of Dave ''boy'' Mccauley's fights with Fidel Bassa, excellent bouts.

 

Good fight, I watched it a month ago. Loved the Spanish commentary as well.

Calderon vs Segura I if you haven't seen it (I haven't actually seen the whole fight).

I watched Holyfield vs Bowe I. What work rate, you just don't see slugfests like that anymore. That uppercut in Round 10. Wow. Holyfield = beast.

 

I've tried to get the Tokashiki fight over so many times :-(

Spellbinding offence :deal Chang is basically unbeatable at his best.

HitmanDanny: Not too small, but Khaokor Galaxy-Sung Kil Moon II :deal And Khaokor Galaxy Vs Wilfredo Vasquez :deal

 

Been watching a lot of byrd and toney lately.

On my phone now but i'll post some scorecards later :good

toney v mccallum 1

1: 9-10 the body snatcher jabs his way to an early round.
2: 10-9 much better by toney who opens up and lands some good shots making mike miss and look clumsy.
3: 9-10 close round with the edge just going to mike who dictated large parts of the round on the outside.
4: 10-9 mike's jabbing on the outside doesn't have the same effect as james makes him miss and nails him with counter hooks.
5: 10-9 toney defending superbly this round seeming to control the pace to his liking.
6: 9-10 brilliant boxing by mike who picks and times his shots beautifully this round.
7: 10-9 great defence and reflexes by toney this round who picks off a lot of counter shots after making mike miss.
8: 9-10 hotly contested round with some great body work coming from mike, toney lands a great combo about the 2 minute mark but loses the round.
9: 9-10 brilliant round that was very even, mike's ring generalship just gives him the edge as they both landed clean effective shots.
10: 10-9 toney neutralises mike's attack this round whacking him with some hard counters throughout.
11: 10-9 another great defensive display by toney who is doing a great "hit and don't be hit" display.
12: 10-9 huge finish by toney who really hurts mike with some massive counters but mike's chin holds up to the punishment.

115-113
