Bradley vs Provodnikov RBR & Vargas vs Omotoso

Great fight, huge heart from Bradley! I am not a Bradley fan usually but I was really impressed with his resolve in the ring, I hadn't seen Provodnikov fight before and I was impressed with him too. Brilliant fight for boxing, shows that hard work and conditioning pay off.

 

Tim got lucky again there could easily of been 3 10-8 rounds.

 

Wow! That was special.

Had it 113-113. Scored the second 10-8, Timmy got hammered that round, but not the first. If the ref had called the KD then yeah a 10-8 but I go with what the ref says as I'm pretty sure that's what the judges do as well.

Gave the 11th to Ruslan which could arguably have gone to Timmy and thus given him the win on my card.

Tim is tough as nails. The amount of times he was out on his feet and you though one more shot and he's down yet he ends up taking another 5 or 6 but still stays up .

Not seen Vargas/Omotoso yet but sounds like that was a good fight as well. Top Rank might as well put on the same card again in a few months :yep

 

Same here Ish. 10-9 for me even though it was a legit KD the ref didn't give it and there wasn't enough else in the round to give a 10-8.

 

Yeah Gaz. It wasn't a big Prov round the first, he just came on late.

 

I scored it 10-8 (the first that is) I think scoring today is a little conservative for my tastes.

 

I agree, I think they could use the 10 points a lot better and that there arn't enough 10-8s scored for rounds where a fighter clearly dominates his opponent but doesn't score the knockdown but Bradley had the better of the first 60-90 seconds then Prod came on but didn't get the knockdown so its hard IMHO to score that a 10-8 on the basis of what happened in the last minute or so.

Theres also the argument that, whether you think its right or wrong, you should use the same scoring methods as the ringside judges.

 

wish i stayed in for this one..i watched it in the early morning without knowing..got me pumped up. Very good card.

Bradley's conditioning is well spoken for and came back pretty good. Ruslan was unfortunate and could have pulled off a nice upset.

Props to all 4 fighters on the main card.

 

Glad I stayed up for it, just reading back through some of the comments. Great fight

 

you got a source for that?
