Just finished watching Herbie Hide fight. He showed good stamina and Boxing skills and excellent reflexes as he won virtually every round and coasted it. The guy he fought looked facially a bit like Riddick Bowe only much smaller he seemed physically smaller than Hide but a very slippery customer indeed. He was on his bike after being floored in the 5th and was warned by the ref several times for turning his back and running literally.
Good to hear. Who was he fighting? hide has benefited with the 200lb limit, has notched p a few wins and must e on the verge of a world title shot. Id ike to see him win one.
He was fighting a guy called Ehinomen Ehikhamenor, never heard of him before and his record of 12-2 wasn't all that impressive I only recognized a few names on his record but, he had 7 kos and indeed surprised Herbie in the opener, Hide's apponent was quick and slick and moved around Hide virtually the entire fight he seemed fired up and he possibly shaded the opening round, the second was also very close but Hide seemed to finding his range more with his Jab and he picked it up in the Third another close round but Hide outworked Ehikhamenor landing a little more and making his opponent miss. Then Hide really tried to close the fight in the fourth he hurt his opponent and floored him. But in the fifth Ehikhamenor decided to go on his bike and danced away from Hide and frustrating Hide a little, hoping that he would get wild and be open for a big shot. Instead Hide boxed more patiently and won the fifth easily. From then on it was Hide coasting all the way. He Hurt his opponent a couple of times but couldnt finish him as Ehikhamenor would move one way then the other despereatly trying to survive. Hide showed patience stamina good boxing skills and overall he impressed me, even though there was no KO.
