Bigger's Better King of 2013: Lisbon, Portugal RBR

Worse to watch: Aurieng vs. Paunov or Dinu vs. Aurieng? I really can't decide.

Eighteen minutes of my life I definitely would like back.

 

Dinu advances by unanimous decision.

 

Special attraction: WKN International title

Gaetano Urso vs. Milder de Oliveira, 5 rounds @ welterweight (64kg)

 

Urso got rocked in the 1st.

 

"L Arhignia" throws some crazy looping combinations.

 

Urso has a chin on him or De Oliveira isn't as powerful as he looks.

 

Urso drilled into the corner midway into the fourth (that is, one minute in - these are two minute rounds) and given a standing eight.

He is game for more but apt to be a sitting duck...yep. L'Arhighnia blasts him out right quick.

 

Right front kick above the crotch, timid 1-2 when De Oliveira wasn't throwing - and that was about it. All he did besides those maneuevers was shell up and get carpet-bombed.

 

Angolan-Portuguese former 2x world amateur kickboxing champion Milder "L'Arhignia" De Oliveira impresses the home crowd.

You could say it was a mild upset, as De Oliveira had only amateur experience while the Belgian was an established pro.

Of course, De Oliveira was 23-4 (8.) in the amateurs while Urso was a 14-11 (2) journeyman in the pros...

 

Google Translate is refusing to help me figure out what "L'Arhignia" means. c
