Australian Boxing/SM Memorial thread

I think that Tapia will stop him I believe that Tapia is a few levels above Wade Ryan and Wes Capper. Vorobev is tough but I think he will be stopped late as Tapia hits a lot harder than the other two guys. In regards to Jarvis I have to disagree a bit mate I don't think he has any capabilities of beating Thurman. Brock's best attribute is his fitness but he is below average at everything else he mainly got by on being a massive weight bully IMO and this is why Jeff Fenech seems so concerned he thinks that Brock is going to get badly hurt. I think it will be a quick one punch KO so hopefully Brock will be ok. Brock's only chance is if Keith is completely shot and injured.

 

Kris Terzievski is now rated no 3 at WBC Bridgerweight and O'Shaquie Foster and Liam Wilson are in talks for a July 6th fight in Gold Coast.

 

Random question I was thinking about today, Shannon Taylor....thoughts on him? I remember hearing hype about him back in the 90s, but....did he have drug issues or something? How good was he?

 

Yeah saw that I was gonna make a thread about it. Good fight for the under card of Tszyu Thurman.

 

Excellent fighter who probably didn't have the dedication required to reach the absolute top of the sport. Was rated #1 WBC challenger for an age and had to sit there, from memory.

 

Coverage on TV of the Thurman-Jarvis undercard is due to begin at 5pm.

In fact, just got it up on Kayo.

Sandstrom-Fernandez first up.

 

Sandstrom doing ok but has a large egg on her head from a head clash.

 

Sandstrom won it but the cards were rubbish IMO.

One judge had it 100-90. FFS!!

 

Clenshaw-Vaoutu'ua next up in a 5 rounder.

 

Great final round. To the cards we go. Not much in this one. Clenshaw for me.

Clenshaw UD but only a point in it on 2 cards.

 

I saw Rushton’s daughter at the bar across from the Horden having a beer she has a black eye did she win?

 

She lost.

 

Lost UD.

 

This should be a good one.

 

Jason Fawcett vs Japan born Hatanaka up next.
