Матч! Боец: Radzhab Yusupovich Butaev vs. Fazliddin Hasanboyevich Goibnazarov RBR

Marat has a compact build, looks "strong like bull" enough, but - damn. I've seen more attention to defense from the mid-late-2000's Washington Wizards.

 

...iffy gas tank, as well. Could be another low-level upset. Ibragimov seems more than game - landing some hefty body punches that aren't helping Gasparyan's stamina.

 

We are 2 for 2! Justice is alive in Sochi!

 

Leon Antonovich Antonyan vs. Daniil Vladimirovich Seregin, 6 rounds @ light heavyweight

 

Seregin down from a right hook downstairs in the 1st, beats the count but immediately thinks better of it and spits out his gum shield to quit just as the ref is calling time in.

TKO1!!

 

Murad Atomoglan Oglu Aliyev vs. Edixon Daniel Hernández Pérez, 10 rounds @ super featherweight

 

Potential gut check here for touted prospect Aliev (who already has a couple of blemishes; undefeated so far with six victories but also two draws)... the plucky 31 year old Venezuelan has a bit of pop and isn't easily stopped.

 

Wow, this is a war.

 

Very good pocket infighting and mid-range work offensively and defensively from both.

Evenly matched, tough, in-shape opponents playing speed-chess and throwing quick hard short punches. Wish this had my full attention but alas, the metre-stick of Daskalos is a heavy burden.

 

Tenth heated up, Aliev went for the KO, no dice.

 

Aliev gets the nod and shares a mutually appreciative moment of sportsmanship with Pérez, bro-hug and back-slap.

 

Aslambek Ilyasovich Idigov vs. Vadim Chingisovich Lubsanov, 8 rounds @ super middleweight

 

Poor man's Tom Hardy lookalike (with a much weaker hairline) Idigov had begun to step up his competition before & early in the pandemic - Ford, Kashtanov and Khusanov was a nice run - but has fallen off. This continues his run of mediocre opposition.

Idigov has 7 kayos in 23 bouts and Lubsanov just 1 in 10 - so this is going to be a long slog, barring somebody getting cut.

 

Look at this coquettish bastart.
