Arslanbek Ruslanovich Makhmudov vs. Mariusz Wach & Simon Kean vs. Shawndell Terrell Winters RBR

I do that all time when watching fights.

The trick is to go spread eagle and keep your head facing forward.

 

Which means nothing. The older you get the worse your chin gets. The more punishment you take the less punishment you can take.

 

I would keep Makmudov away from Hughie Fury. But a kaybayel, a Bakole, or best yet an Ajagba, get blasted out in a few rounds

 

Ironic that if Makhmudov looked too good in this fight it would probably make it all the more difficult to line up his next one. How did his chin and stamina look?

 

What's ironic is if a fighter looks too good than people claim no one will fight them and be ducked. If he looks beatable suddenly that makes him over hyped, bum, ko waiting to happen, etc...

Mak did exactly what he needed to do, which is get Wach out of there, which his better than anyone ever did, but it's not good enough. I don't even know why most people watch boxing anymore, they clearly hate the sport and has zero respects for the fighters.

 

Journeymen Jonnie Rice (tall mover) and Wach (lumbering iron-chinned giant) have proven the toughest challenges for Makhmudov in the pros. Mak's chin also isn't the best if the amateurs are anything to go by (rocked badly by Nistor, starched by Omarov). I think Hughie is the toughest matchup of that group, Wallin second and the others are very beatable but still pose a certain amount of danger.

 

Makhmudov is a raw force, he is dangerous for everyone, somehow I would like to see him against Hrgovic...

 

Well he's not got your good technique.

Btw my man Boxing Squared gave 3 and 4 to Wach also so little pipsqueak is fos as I said.

 

Mak went out there and beat a 42 year old has been. Wach actually was never any good. He was just a big slow lumbering oaf. So Makhmudov has yet to prove anything besides he can beat up tomato cans.

 

His power is scary because he can knock out old me? I assume you was impressed by Tye Fields power as well right? Because if you can knock out guys who are in the ring with you to lose it really means something.

Also Foreman and Wach are two different fighters just in case you didn't know. Foreman was a world class athlete who became champion twice. Wach is just a big slow lumbering oaf. Also Foreman didn't fight until he was 49. I fought until he was 48 so close enough.

I do agree with you on this. Anthony Joshua's best win was against a 40 year old Wlad. Tyson Fury's best win was against a 39/40 year old Wlad. Deontay Wilder's best win was against a 50 year old Luis Ortiz. That being said Wlad and Ortiz are far better than Wach.

I also agree with you about how Whyte got knocked out stupid by old Povetkin. Tyson Fury got dropped twice earlier on in his career by light punchers. One of the guys Steve Cunnigham wasn't even a heavyweight. Joshua got knocked out by Andy Ruiz and was hurt badly by Usyk.
Deontay Wilder has been stopped twice and even knocked down by Harold Sconier a club fighter.

That being said Makhmudov still has proven nothing with his career so far. He fought easy hand picked opponents and he beat these easy hand picked opponents. The guy is 32 years old and still fighting guys that level? Back in the 70's 80's 90's or early 2000's this wouldn't have been acceptable.

 

This fight was so poorly promoted you would think they were fighting on another planet or something.

What exactly do "Eye of the Tiger" promotions do?

 

49-years-old Foreman, though, was nowhere near as hittable as Wach who is getting hit with every single punch his opponent throws, especially in the last 3 or so years
