    Buatsi dominated, I had him 8-2 up, 7-3 is fine.

    Humble pie boy !

    Goddamn that was a sweet right to end the whole card. Bolotniks is one tough mofo, sad to not see him hear that final bell.

    No, you were totally wrong. You said it would be easy work. It wasn't easy work. It was hard work for him and he lost several rounds as you admitted. Easy work is something different so STFU and humble pie boy! :pipi You're a total clown by the way. The reason why you suck in predicting fights as we see in the league.

    Last comment today: I bet Michael Buffer got laid 10,000 more times in his life than Diamante would in 5 lifetimes.

    He lost several rounds? Buatsi was clearly 3/4/5 rounds up, obviously he had some questions asked of him but he knocked Bolotniks down twice and performed well.

    A bit disappointed that Bolotniks didn't go the distance but no shame for him he fought with heart and intelligence, slowed Buatsi up a lot with his body shots.

    Looking forward to see him dismantle some prospects.

    You said Buatsi was up 8-2 or 7-3. What means "several rounds"? :risas3: Stop abusing the booze dude. Just stop it.

    It wasn't easy work. It was a solid performance but he struggled badly in some of those rounds. Easy work is a shutout or an early KO.

    I'd say he has a chance but would have to work on his flaws, and workrate. I think he has the skills to give Johnson and Smith issues but would need to tighten up his defence a LOT., and work the jab more often.

    Bivol is not a big puncher but I'd take him to win a fairly one-sided UD.

    Beterbeast is all wrong for Buatsi and would see him destroy that body.

    But Buatsi does have power which is always going to give him a chance.

    I reckon he'd take Callum out tbh.

    Very impressed with Buatsi. Another important step on his journey to destiny. Bolotniks was tough.

    Good finish by Buatsi, but Bolotniks' tiredness had a part in there as well.

    Did he just call Buatsi 'one of the most exciting fighters in the world'? Did I imagine that?

    Buatsi still needs to improve in some areas - defense and conditioning, but overall like I mentioned this performance was good, he got the needed rounds and finished the job.

    Bolotniks also gave a good account of himself tonight. Sadly didn't the get the win, but hopefully he doesn't get discouraged and learns from his mistakes tonight. Bolotniks is a very tough and crafty fighter.
