    You could see quite clearly that the both of them were upset at the result. Not sure what they don't like about CBS because there's not much to dislike about him. He's a bit crude on the outside but he's very good in the pocket and is improving all the time.

    Round 1 Pigford 10-9
    Round 2 Pigford 10-9

    King swinging for the fences and like a madman, missing a;most everything, Pigford just standing back and outjabbing him. This is awful.

    Why are the majority of African boxers shite? You have the great Nelson, quite decent Mitchell and Tete and meh guys like Makabu. With the population they should definitely have better talent.

    Round 1 Pigford 10-9
    Round 2 Pigford 10-9
    Round 3 Pigford wins by TKO

    King for some inexplicable reason backed into the corner, Joe walked over and ripped him to the ribs with a left, King winces, almost goes down, and should have. Joe then tees off and the ref steps in, a bit too soon, but the outcome was elementary.

    Well first, Makabu isn't meh, he's top tier, and one of the best Cruiserweights on the planet. As far as the rest, they don't have a thriving boxing scene there, so therefore they don't have a ton of top tier trainers to imbue them with immaculate skillsets.

    It was a competitive fight, but not close. 115-113 is outrageous like every single one of your scorecards.

    Pigford is in the same mold as Lewis Ritson for me, he'll look great at his level but as soon as he steps up to top domestic/Euro level, he'll struggle. Although if nothing else, it'll be entertaining.

    Yeah they were.

    Riakporhe said he thought CBS was ''soft'' before he fought him. I don't know what he was basing that off because CBS' toughness is one of his greatest strengths and Riakporhe's chin is certainly not as sturdy as his. To be fair, after he fought him he said he wasn't soft.

    He might not be a future world champion but he's a British, Commonwealth and European champion and he's ranked in the top 5 by three of the sanctioning orgs (#1, #3, & #5) and #8 by the other so he obviously has something about him.

    Not close... really? So then why did the rest of the RBR have it one round wider at 116-112? And why are you not criticizing their cards? You're just being a little ****starting trolling ***** with me, like you always do. So stay in your HW lane *****, and shut your ****ing mouth.

    116-112 was the absolute minimum, being very generous to Chamberlain. You almost had it a draw. Im not trolling you but you always seem to see different fights comparing to everyone else.

    No, you're clearly trolling me, as I pointed out. I had it ONE round closer than the rest, and the rest were citing many of the early rounds as being close. So that means I saw all but ONE ROUND the same as everyone else. Get a grip, and stop looking for things to ***** and moan about.
