Nice textbook boxing by the journeyman. Either the other guy and his team didnt do their homework or were alittle big headed. You never stay in front of the bigger man or box with him unless you have reflexes like Maravilla or Floyd. Well hopefully Italian guy learns from this.
Unless you're name is Sugar Ray Robinson, it's generally not a good idea to pit your fighter, no matter how good, against a guy who is two divisions ahead of you....Esepcially when you've been dropped by welterweights on several occasions in the past. And if you do fight someone larger of you, it's best not to lunge in behind a lazy, single jab or a wide sweeping hook that can be countered by the larger man's right. One might think that after 33 professional fights, Abis handlers might have realized this. But because they didn't, they gave us another unlikely upset...And two of the most aesthetically pleasing kd's of the year.
Good find on that one. This guy who got ko'd was around long time, maybe shot was better than it looked? He even had time to recuperate, and couldn't.
was that a padded 31-1 or a real deal one no shame the 9 and 18 guy looked game a sharp crisp punch from an inshape boxer nothing you can do not the first time an up and comer got sting rayed by a journeyman this **** is in RING all the time
Records can be deceiving. There are quite a few .500 fighters that I would take over a padded undefeated fighter any day.
