    Round 11
    Ref Allen huggins finally wakes up after sleepwalking the last few rounds and deducts a point from Jai for holding (that was sarcasm but the PD was real) jai beats the breaks off him the last part of the round
    9-9 Jai

    I disagree. He looks scared to commit to his shots. He's running a lot and holding a lot. He got a PD for it too. Plus he keeps taking knees. He looks mid as hell. Sure, he's winning every round, but he's fighting a nobody with some of the worst footwork I've seen and has had him on the backfoot the whole fight.

    He gets murdered if he goes to HW. He's not big enough and not technical enough to overcome the size disadvantage while not being a giant puncher.

    He might be able to knock off some of the lower tier guys like Torrez or Makhmudov, but anyone legit? No way.

    His chin is too shaky and his stamina is too bad for HW. He will get KOd by any half decent heavyweight.

    Glanton has a ****ing chin. He took some monster punches with that wide shoulder and thick neck.

    Glanton out, still aggressive, Jai shoeshining him with combos. Glanton still going to the body. Jai landing a barrage of uppercuts. Ganton holds on. Of course Andre Ward is all for holding. Horrific left, Glanton takes it well. Then he goes to the body. Jai teeing off, Glanton taking it well still. Uppercut at the bell.

    119-106 Opetaia

    Now get Glanton to the ****ing hospital!

    Stamina is so bad that he can't even finish a dude begging to get KOd.

    Excellent performance. I hope Zuffa keeps Opetaia active with another couple of fights this year.

    I can't believe Glanton made it, that left with about 50 seconds had him rocked
