Michael Katsidis vs. Ricky Burns & George Groves vs. Paul Smith RBR

I'm stopping over in London in 3 weeks.......and if I see Bunce there.....I can kick him square in the nuts for you if you like :good

 

The Brits have this weird love affair with him. Of those 73 losses I'd wager at least half were televised. :conf

 

I would literally kiss your ass if you did. :yep

 

not liking bunce then IB?

 

Robinson keeps his hands down and has no pop!!!

 

Now THAT'S impressive... being in sooo many British televised fights and THEN only being stopped 4 times. This guy must be amazing!

 

Sid Razak is one of my favorite Journeymen.

 

:rofl

 

Round 2

Razak tries to pressure with a pawing jab and some very easily scouted roll-over rights. Robinson is dancing around the perimeter and scurrying by the corners to never allow Razak to trap him, and popping out straight jabs, quick soft flurries into the guard, and looping rights to the body by turn. Razak tries to snipe him while turning, head hunting and only making some glancing contact as Robinson moves and lands.

20-18 Robinson

 

Our Journeymen are there to test the youngsters...unlike the American journeymen who are their to get stopped. We appreciate guys like Buckley, Razak, Thorpe as they don't just "turn up to get beat". It's a bit like our love for Danni Peret who comes to win rather than just a pay day.

If a guy stops a guy like Razak (who said he's only been dropped once in his career) it's a major achievement, if a guy stops most American journeymen (a few exceptions like Zack Page would be on the same level as Razak) it's just record padding against a guy they brought in to lose. Our journeymen are brought in to teach fighters things....

 

This kid does not impress me one bit....

 

Round 3

Razak is winging in uppercuts with both hands from the outside as he comes forward. Robinson ducks and backs up, light on his toes and agile as he maneuvers through Razak's wild power shots and then propping up against him with their forearms meshed and trying to work in some body shots. Razak throws a powerful but slow right hand and doesn't come near Robinson, with just a slight lean away from the younger boxer. Razak bites his bottom lip and hurls himself forward with a wild uppercut. Robinson keeps stepping back and sizing Razak up for three-and-four-pop bursts, flurrying both into the guard and the stomach.

30-27 Robinson

 

Just my opinion, but I don't think Sid is anywhere near the Peretyatko or Page level. Those guys have a legitimate chance of beating a fringe world class talent on any given night.

Razak gets shut out by green beans.

 

I don't think this kid has what it takes to be a champ like his pops IMO

 

Round 4

Robinson pops a flurry and backs up. Razak follows him to the ropes and then leans in, trying to dig an uppercut into his side. Robinson holds and then flurries and backs up on the break. Razak drops a right to the navel. Robinson backs up and flurries in threes and fours, everything a very light precipitation with no bad intentions...just scoring blows. Razak is throwing with some increased desperation, hammering down with overhand rights and even tossing some spearing combos to the body. Razak landing a bit more now. Hook to the pecs and a clubbing right hand over the top by Razak as Robinson ducks and backs away with a departing flurry.

40-36 Robinson but that was the round you could make the strongest argument for Razak.
