Anthony Mundine vs. Xavier Tolliver & Sonny Bill Williams vs. Alipate Liava'a RBR

Round 6

Tolliver is getting inside and hooking at Mundine, grabbing in between his punches. He's making it awkward for Mundine, who is trying to shove him into jabbing range but not quite strong enough to do so. Tolliver is landing on him one and done before grabbing, then releasing and repeating. Mundine lands a good left hook of his own, but is otherwise getting pretzel-jobbed and grazed with hooks although he's trying to slip them. Tolliver has a point deducted for excessive holding - despite never having been warned for it. :conf Mundine lands a 1-2. Another. Tolliver again holds. The referee glares at him but doesn't take another point.

I had that for Tolliver before the point deduction and pair of big rights from Mundine. **** it, he can still keep it.

9-9

59-54 Mundine

 

That would establish a new proper lineage, yeah.

 

Round 7

Tolliver is hooking and grabbing. Mundine is landing his own hooks, jabs and right hands coming forward. Tolliver is now grabbing more and more. Mundine hooks him in the face and the white towel is waved while Tolliver is still covering up and trying to line up his own counter punches.

 

Mundine gets his 25th knockout. :conf

He's only the fifth man to ever stop Tolliver, don't ya know.

"Just pay me and let's go home..."

Tua, on Tolliver's thought process just before the stoppage.

Yeah, Dave. That's what you were thinking in the last few minutes against Barrett, wasn't it? :deal


...sorry. Couldn't help it.



Please don't track me down and hit me, Tuaman!!!

 

Tolliver says he has the heart of a lion but that he trusts his coach's judgment.

He says there was a gameplan defensively but Mundine was stronger than he thought.

He is asked about the speed of Mundine.

"He's 36 you know, and when you are 36 your hand speed isn't gonna be what it was when you was 30, or you know 29. So I thought (ramble ramble ramble)..."

Tolliver is a cool dude. :yep Seems a bit nervous under the bright lights and just happily overwhelmed to have a microphone in his face.

He won the event, damn it.

 

Mundine says he wants to be the first man in history to win world titles at 154, 160, and 168 - and in descending order no less!

TOLLIVER IS STANDING BEHIND MUNDINE, LISTENING TO HIM AND YAWNING!!!!!!!!!!!

I love you, X-Man.
