FNF: Magomed Abdusalamov vs. Maurice Byarm & Javier Fortuna vs. Cristobal Cruz RBR

Teddy always a straight shooter except when it comes to love. Never had him down as a game player :verysad

 

Round 4

Otero keeps slamming away with that right hand, and buzzes Williams twice in a row with it! Williams is throwing left and right uppercuts to the body in succession, but they're wet noodles. Otero is backing up in a slow jog, twisting above the waist to keep away from Williams' higher jabs, and willingly absorbing body shots to get forward and load up on big right hands. Otero clobbering hard with that right, picking his spots, slow but powerful. Williams is knocked back to the ropes and tapping to the body softly. OHHHH!!! HUGE COUNTER RIGHT HOOK BY WILLIAMS COMING OFF THE ROPES!!! OTERO LEFT A BIG OPENING, AND PAID THE PRICE! Head turned sharply from that. He's in bad shape. Williams opens up on him but is running out of time for the stoppage. Otero backs up, still clearing the cobwebs as Williams lands another right hook. BIG right hand by Otero, buying a precious second to see the final bell.

40-36 Williams

 

...the 4th could have been a 10-8...right?

 

Atlas gave the 4th 10-8.

He must post on BScene.

He could "feel" Otero gradually losing consciousness.

 

Official cards:

Robert Bennett 40-36
Dick Houk 40-36
Al Lefkowicz 40-36

Mitch Williams

 

Wait...wait...

Mitch "King Can" Williams?

As in, like "can do"? (or Broner being the "can man"...or if Williams was Mexican, being a non-Mexican't?)

What kind of new age "power of positive thinking" nonsense is that? :rofl

 

William Mitch Williams...his parents named him William Williams?!?

 

:err

 

Byarm vs Abdusalamov rd 1 was not a 10-8 round because I do not remember the referee calling that. ALTHOUGH a knockdown can be called if the ropes or any part of the ropes keep the fighter from going down. Since the referee was in better position to see if the turnbuckle or ropes prevented Byarm from going than I was, I'll just have to say the round was 10-9, all that is irrelevant anyway.

Abdusalamov is one hard punching pug but so far in the few fights of his I have seen, he's taken at least one very solid punch from his opponent, in this fight he endured a solid left uppercut but MA's ability to withstand solid blows has not let him down thus far. I like Abdusalamov's cape, it must be a wizard thing or maybe he's a Roky Erikson fan.
