Yeah those bodyshots hurt Rudenko badly. Kabayel looked great imo. He's one of the better boxers in the division who can fight at one pace for almost 12 rounds. He took few rounds off in the end but his coach in the corner said him he should take it easy. So no big deal. Would love to see Kabayel in a bigger fight next.
Nathan Gorman will face Fabio Maldonado for World Boxing Council International Silver Heavyweight Title on March 23rd.
Andy Ruiz Jr will face Alexander Dimitrenko on April 20th Mike Balogoun back on April 20th as well but on other show
Poor Mansour, I like him but he needs to hang em gloves. Ajagba looks really really good, this guy has a real chance for a HW title one day.
I don't think Mansour should retire, he could still fill some undercards with decent fights... But he really should avoid those tall guys with monstrous power. He fought perhaps the 2 most talented guys in the division in his last fights ffs. Let him fight Lucas Browne, Dave Allen, Price, Chris Arreola, etc type of boxers and we probably get exciting fights... But this was hard to watch. Ajagba looked really good though.
I'm impressed by Kabayel. He's not a mind-blowing boxer, but his fundamental skills look extremely solid, and he appears to carry a bit of pop. Might become one of those who needs him guys in the future, though I hope he gets the opportunity to perform on the big stages.
I dunno. He's nearing fifty, and the wear and tear is obviously affecting him at this point. He seems to go down much easier than in the past and fights with a lot less fire. Could just be, like you said, the result of going in against two very good opponents, but I think any boxer approaching fifty should probably be seriously considering their life after boxing at this juncture.
