Zimmermans left uppercut was awesome, Ghita's left hook was awesome and Hari's right uppercut was awesome. Someone needs to create the striking equivilent to UFC. These sort of KOs make for great viewing. I'll be watching when Badr goes to boxing. He has size, power and most importantly it looks like he trains.
Hari absolutely destroyed Saki. I figured he would win, but he made it look easy. Ghita is a beast. I would have loved to him face Hari. That fight would have been fireworks. Grigorian was very impressive. His high pressure boxing left no room for Ngimbi to get anything going. Zimmerman, while inconsistant, is one of my favorites. The guy has some ridiculous power. Anderson Silva vs. Michael Duut was a nice heated battle. Anderson was clearly superior in every way. I wouldn't mind seeing him in a rematch with Hesdy Gerges. I would love to see Robin van Roosmalen vs. Mike Zambidis. That is some combat FOTY material if it ever happens.
Hari looked great, but Saki looked like he was in less than optimal shape. I wonder, since everybody knew this was Hari's retirement match, if Saki took it easy? They were so damn chummy after the fight, it has me wonder a bit. But then again, if they are really close like that, knowing each others fathers and all, I can see how they'd be that way post fight. Anyway, Ghita is a damn beast!!! I really wonder how Saki survived against him again. When they fought, Gohkan put it all together and just had more volume, which got him the win. But the Ghita from this past weekend... that is one scary dude! If Hari didn't retire and ended up facing Ghita, I'd have no doubts he'd KO Hari, brutally. I can't wait for Hari to make his full transition to boxing now and hone his craft. It will be nice seeing an explosive HW with real KO power in boxing.
Im wanting Sprong to re-match Carnage Corbett.. Though only due to seeing Corbett elbow the **** out of Sprong.
No he wouldn't!!!! Where is your evidence for that type of absurd statement....Because Roosmalen had a fairly close but fair win over Direkci....Well if thats your evidence than you have a short memory because Kyshenko fought Direkci to in May 2010...and it was an extremely close fight( and Direkci opened a huge gash on Kyshenko) and it can be argued that Direkci won rounds 1 and 3...meaning he would have won the fight Kyshenko vs Direkci [yt]ZqsC9uQOeT4[/yt] Roosmalen vs Direkci [yt]n995MesIii4[/yt] Now if I didn't know anything about kickboxing and just watched those 2 fights....I would think that Roosmalen would have a very good chance of beating Kyshenko.....As he imo looked more dominant and better against Direkci than Artur did....So your logic is really flawed.
Did you sign up to ESB just because I said Artur would "destroy" Roosmalen?, Robin is that you? :blood. I was joking about the "destroy" part btw, but I'd definitely pick Kyshenko to win in a rematch. Robin's fight with Murat had no effect on my opinion, it was a good showing by both guys and Direkci has always been a tough guy. Just think Kyshenko is better, sue me.
No lol I had made another account a long time ago on here but I forgot the password and had made this account and searched Kyshenko to see if anyone was talking about Petrosyan vs Kyshenko and saw this... Kyshenko may be better....but the word "destroy" was just not appropriate and especially if the fight with Direkci was influencing your opinion when Kyshenko to had a tough fight with Dirkeci. And let's be real if Kyshenko does fight Roosmalen....if anyone does the "destroying" it would not be him....He would need to fight at distance to win...He would not last in a brawl. Now that you said you were joking it is irrelevant. And no I'm not Roosmalen lol...I'm not even Dutch.
