In a disgraceful fixed fight, Afolabi comes from retirement tonight to get a big payday and go down at the third round. If I find the fight on youtube i will post it, shameful, boxing dont need this and even more when the others fights in the card were really good, Mikhalkin vs Oosthuizen was very entertaining
Ola should have stayed retired. At least the TKO against Huck was forgivable due to his eye being ****ed up.
Yeah, at least Huck is a good boxer, there was no shame in loosing like that, he also knocked out Chakhiev before that fight, but this comeback tonight...awful stuff, I fear that he will be involved in more fights like this one tonight
Yeah, immediately upon seeing the result I went on Twitter because it sounded fishy that a no-mark German cruiser prospect would become the second person to stop Afolabi (and first to actually do so outright via ten-count or towel or whatever, as Huck IV was a cuts stoppage) and sure enough every single comment from people that watched it was about how it was obviously fixed, along with reports of a lot of late money pouring in on Doser this morning. Shame that a proud gladiator like Olawale has resorted to going into the tank.
He also mentioned on social media that he missed weight on his first attempt, but lost four pounds in an hour or two subsequently to make it on a later attempt. In the interim his tone was a bit miffed at having to pay a fee. Money could be tight.
That legit?? Could be he took a handshake deal to let the guy stop him in exchange for not paying the fine. If it wasnt an outright fix, cutting 4 pounds in an hour is a great way to ensure even a nobody will knock you out.
People are going to start to forget how truly insanely durable Ola was if he starts touring the amateur circuits taking dives like this.
that did looked fixed lol. shame with this and the murota decision earlier its been a bad weekend for boxing.. hope tonight fights end with out conterversy.
