    Didn't realize they would have this fight, that I thought could end up being the best or second best of the night on an action basis, so early.

    It's been fine but not quite living up to its potential!

    Sigh.

    Prodan has no excuse for this. A 20 fight power-punching vet should not be struggling against a relative newcomer with no power to hurt him, missed weight and is gassed.

    6-3 Marku, he just can't seem to miss with that jab but Marku looking exhausted. On his bike for most of the fight

    prodan has nothing else to give. Marcu is way smarter, and knows his job better than prodan. Marcu is just much better boxer, we cant always win.

    Both would die if they fight vs avanesyan tomorrow. But I guess we can give them a bit more time to improve.

    6-4 Prodan. He won it with cleaner heavier jabs in a competitive round. Got the feeling Marku didn't want to engage a superior boxer in range and was happy on his bike. A decent fight but the fighter spirit was not with Marku out of the two of them. Interesting to hear the boos for Marku but they were deserved for the lack of intent he showed.

    Marku 8-2 on my card.

    I gave Prodan a couple of rounds where he got cleaner power shots in, but the jab was the story of the fight IMO.

    If Prodan did that for most of the fight he'd have made easy work of Marku, even with the odd eye-catching counter. He didn't, so Marku almost swept him.

    97-93 Marku
