Can anyone tell me what the point of stand 8 counts are in amateur boxing? It doesn't give you any bonus points or anything.
He clearly won in my opinion though. He hurt ogogo in rd 2 and again in rd 3 and landed the clearer, cleaner shots. He definitely won the third by more than 1 point, or at least he should of...
yeah ogogo was keeping the gloves tight and countering with clean punches quite well. :bbb thought the ukrainian pulled it out though.
why only 1 pt for forcing a standing count. that's a pile of cr&p. should be 2 pts for a standing count. 3 pts for a knockdown. gotta be incentive for getting one of those. :roll:
I see taylor is 6/4 against valentino, is it worth a score? I reckon valentino should win but it being in britain......
it wasnt close, what the **** do you have to do to beat a GB fighter here, as a brit i'm a shade embarassed tbh
Nah I thought it was close. Only a few punches got through clearly from what I saw. It isn't pro boxing, if it was the UKR would have won 30-27, but shots need to land clean, and they don't score jabs so who cares if he was "rocked with jabs" (which he wasn't lol). Good performance from a huge underdog.
