    I pretty much echo everyone else here.

    Context provided : Povetkins is better.

    No context provided : Davis's is better.


    Still.... hell of a nice ko.

    So is Tank vs. LSC worth actually watching, or just the KO?

    Bear in mind that both guys typically bore me witless, and even had I not gotten banned the night of that fight I probably wouldn't have bothered going outta my way to catch it anyway. :sisi1

    I reckon Charlo Tszyu is the biggest fight to be made at 154

    Noticed in the video that the audience is jammed together and it didn't look like there were many wearing masks.......what's happening in Australia covid wise right now? Excuse me if this puts a damper on this conversation....just saying what I observed.

    Yeah, it was actually, I usually have the same opinion as you on those two, but Leo brought it.... a little too much.:lol: That's what got him KTFO. But he knew that was the only chance he had, it's a pity Pulev didn't realize that and sell out. Anyway, solely due to Leo pushing him, the fight was damn fun to watch.

    Less than 2 dozen cases in two weeks. Still social distancing requested and masks worn quite frequently. Concerns about a flare up during the summer season but even then case likely to be in 100's not 1000's.

    It was a good fight and the davis KO was way more dramatic. Hell heve the Zepeda fight was more brutal.

    Yeah LSC bagged at least 2 rounds maybe even 3 going into the 6th.

    That was my score too. I think anyone who knew the matchup knew if LSC could take the punch hed have a chance, and that showed for the first half of the fight until he got caught throwing 3 lead right hands for some odd reason.

    Povetkin taking out the #2 heavyweight in their backyard with a dip and fire uppercut one shot. Hands down.

    I disagree. Tims opponent just stood up from being hurt. We all knew he was on shaky legs and vulnerable before the shot ever landed. Povektin on the other hand landed a legit 1 shot KO on a fighter who wasn't hurt by targeting an opening. Nobody saw it coming until it happened.
