    Round 2

    Thurman is throwing the left hook pushing back off his toes and slinging up jabs. Zaveck is looking for the big right hand, straight and curled around over Thurman's shoulder. Zaveck is having success, landing obliquely along the chin as Thurman rolls back and a bit on the neck. Thurman circles out and continues with his jabs and hooks on the outside as Zaveck applies constant pressure and patiently launches the right.

    10-9 Thurman but closer.

    20-18 Thurman

    20-18 Thurman. JZ isn't going away, but Thurman's still boxing well.

    They remind me of each other. Hard workers but nothing great.

    I never learnt his opponent's name, neither before, during nor after the fight.

    Hard not to root for such guys, especially against a pampered hype job. :yep

    Not to mention the hard worker (and recent former world champ) is making 25k while the pampered hype job is making several times more in his first ever step up.

    Boxing needs more fans like you, IB. And we wonder why the sport is weakening. We treat the fighters who deserve respect like ****, slander their abilities, and make it impossible for them to make a living.
