the what fights did you watch today\scorecard thread.

Just finished watching Kelvin Seabrooks vs Thierry Jacob. It was a crazy slugfest. For the first 6 or 7 rounds, Seabrooks couldn't catch a break. He knocks Jacob down, he gets knocked down twice back. He'd be having a good round and then he'd get hurt. That would change at the end of the 8th when it is Jacobs who gets hurt real bad at the end of a round he was otherwise winning.

Round 1: 8-10 Jacob
Round 2: 9-10 Jacob (17-20 Jacob)
Round 3: 9-10 Jacob (26-30 Jacob)
Round 4: 9-10 Jacob (35-40 Jacob)
Round 5: 9-10 Jacob (44-50 Jacob)
Round 6: 8-10 Jacob (52-60 Jacob)
Round 7: 9-10 Jacob (61-70 Jacob)
Round 8: 10-9 Seabrooks (71-79 Jacobs)
Round 9: 10-9 Seabrooks (81-88 Jacobs)

Seabrooks wins after Jacob's corner stops the fight between rounds 9 and 10.
Awesome fight. Definitely worth a watch.

 

It is brilliant. Glad someone else appreciates things like this.

 

Crazy fight. Was it round 8 that was the totally insane one?

 

Round 8, round 1

All of them really.

 

Yeah, they were all great - I just remember round 8 when saintpat did the greatest rounds thread as it was up against Saad-Lopez 2, I think.

 

Never heard of that one. Interesting.

 

Leo Randolph v Ricardo Cardona

Very good fight with sustained action throughout. Randolph really took it to the champ and showed real toughness after getting knocked down and beaten up in the 5th.

This kind of performance should have signalled a promising championship career but it would be his penultimate fight.

1 10-10 (great start)
2 10-9
3 10-9
4 9-10 (close)
5 8-10 (Cardona drops Randolph with a straight right)
6 10-9 (good recovery from Randolph)
7 10-9
8 10-9 (Randolph has Cardona wobbly. He recovers well but another Randolph round in the bag)
9 10-9
10 9-10 (good rearguard action from Cardona)
11 10-9
12 10-9 (close)
13 10-9
14 10-9 (great round)
(136-130 )
15 Randolph TKO Cardona

 

My boy Leo! One of those "happy fghts" for me.

 

Mark Kaylor v Errol Christie

Genuine grudge match from the mid-80s that lived up to its billing. This one was not a promoter hype job - you can tell these two genuinely disliked each other.

Despite the early knockdown, Christie started well, putting Kaylor down twice, in rounds 1 and 3. Kaylor's comeback started in the 4th amd he was the bigger, stronger fighter in there. Christie kept punching back and had his moments but Kaylor finished him in style and in the way that a fight like this deserved. Great stuff.

1 9-10 (Christie down in the first seconds of the fight before coming back to put Kaylor down and finish strongest)
2 9-10 (close)
3 8-10 (Kaylor down again, hard)
4 10-9 (Kaylor's first clear round)
5 10-9
6 10-9
7 10-9
(66-66)
8 Kaylor KO Christie

 

Robbie Sims v Iran Barkley

Wow - what a war! Sims started off looking like his cousin, Marvin Hagler, with good lateral movement and head movement, with occasional switch hitting. By the end, though, defense had been cast aside and it had turned into a fight that would seemingly suit Barkley who was getting on top.

The 5th was non-stop slugging but Sims turned the tide with the more accurate punching and suddenly it was all over, Barkley down on his face, barely making the count and the ref had to stop it. Awesome stuff.

1 10-9
2 10-9
3 9-10
4 9-10
5 9-10 (brutal exchanges. Close round)
(47-48)
6 Sims TKO Barkley

 

Don Lee v Tony Sibson

Another fun middleweight fight. After a good start, Sibson had a nightmare 3rd where he was nearly stopped but managed to work his way gradually back into the fight and when he scored another knockdown at the start of the 8th, it looked like he might be able to pull it off. That hope was shortlived though as Lee pulled the trigger again and Sibson couldn't get his legs back, leaving the ref with no choice but to stop it.

1 8-10 (Sibson scored a KD at the end of a fast-paced opener)
2 10-9 (close)
3 10-6 (the fight swings hard in Lee's favour with three KDs started by a sweetly timed left hook)
4 10-10 (Sibson manages to fight on even terms with Lee after that disastrous previous round)
5 10-9 (Sibson cut over the left eye)
6 9-10 (good round for Sibson, boxing well)
7 9-10 (close)
(66-64)
8 Lee TKO Sibson
(Lee down from a flash KD, comes back to drop Sibson again who is stopped from continuing, rightly, by Tony Perez)

 

Jel, I checked this one out this past summer. I agree, awesome fight. I had it 5-3-2 for Turner through 10, so we were both right there. Although it wouldn't effect our scores as we both gave Gavilan the 5th, but I read that Turner was penalized the 5th for a low blow. So, according to the rules at the time, if any judge had given Turner the 5th, they would have had to give it to Gavilan due to the penalty. Such an odd rule, but on the rounds scoring basis, how else do you penalize a fighter?

 

Binged on some young prine Hector Camacho.
Versus
-Rojas
-Loy
-Sato
He was absolutey sensational in these fights,good fights on paper aswell for the young upstart.

 

Virgil Hill vs Fabrice Tiozzo

This one is an underrated light heavyweight clash from the early 90's. I haven't seen it in a while but I remember really enjoying it. This is my score card from when I watched it. Tiozzo goes done twice in the first two rounds and Hill looses points in the 6th and 9th for low blows if Im not mistaken.

Round 1: 10-8 Hill
Round 2: 10-8 Hill (20-16 Hill)
Round 3: 10-9 Hill (30-25 Hill)
Round 4: 9-10 Tiozzo (39-35 Hill)
Round 5: 9-10 Tiozzo (48-45 Hill)
Round 6: 8-10 Tiozzo (56-55 Hill)
Round 7: 9-10 Tiozzo (65-65)
Round 8: 10-9 Hill (75-74 Hill)
Round 9: 8-10 Tiozzo (83-84 Tiozzo)
Round 10: 9-10 Tiozzo (92-94 Tiozzo)
Round 11: 10-9 Hill (102-103 Tiozzo)
Round 12: 9-10 Tiozzo (111-113 Tiozzo)

My final score was 113-111 Fabrice Tiozzo. One judge had it 115-113 Tiozzo but the other two judges had it 115-112 and 115-110 for Hill respectively. I disagree with the decision and I think that 115-110 card is way too wide. What is especially strange about this robbery (if you wanna call it that), is that it happened on Tiozzo's home turf of France.

This was brilliant! One of the best scraps I've seen at LHW, and stamina wise, it was a brilliant performance from Pops. Easily his best IMO. It was 30 minutes of nothing but power punches, and he didn't tire at all. Williams was more than happy to oblige Johnson's style, even if he was completely out-gunned.
