Good post DUB. Maxwell just kept stalking Ellis - I assume he'd hurt Ellis a bit earlier? Very square on approach by Maxwell, but landed plenty of right hands in particular. When he hit him with the big left to finish things, it looked like Ellis had been hit with a chair!
No offence to the lad who Got KTFO but he looked like a Pissed up Tent fighter at times during that clip .
Young Ellis has had a few good results Josey, and at 21 he's got potential. But unfortunately he's an example of a fighter who's collected belts at the cost of his development IMO. Have a look at his record in BoxRec and you'll fairly easily see where I'm coming from..... http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=359847&cat=boxer
CHB No offence but that Ellis fella was just swinging that left hail Mary shot from his boots and Maxwell had weeks to see it coming and counter plus he looked the taller fighter and was crouching down making himself smaller , the left hook that Ippy wrote about was the punch that got him KTFO but It was him looking for the Ko himself with that left at the expense of his guard that got him in trouble in the first palc ( Did you notice how low he dropped his right whilst throwing the Hayemaker ) ? If i was him and 21 years of age i would be looking for a boxing coach and a promoter that was happy with me learning the trade at a slower pace .
