Dmitry Sukhotsky vs. Cornelius White & Anthony Mundine vs. Bronco McKart RBR

Why do they keep calling Ahror Muralimov "Arakh Muhammad Ali"?? :?

I know it's the same guy listed on Boxrec and not a late opponent change, because they just mentioned his record as 12-0 (11) just like it's listed for Muralimov...but they aren't calling him by that name. The way they're pronouncing the first name, kind of sounds like it looks there...but they keep saying his last name is "Muhammad Ali" or just "Ali" as though his middle name is Muhammad.

Round 3

Heavy slaps up top by "Ali". Carthron is turning his thumbs up toward the ceiling and drumming up at the flabby body of Ali but unable to wear him down or slow his output headhunting. Ali is slapping Carthron hard around the back of the head, mostly just heavy arm punches. Slow pace. Carthron getting pushed around.

30-27 Ali

 

Round 4

Carthron is trying to slump over and work the body, too tired to play keepaway. Ali is slapping him across the back with his meaty paws and now digging in some hooks to the body as Carthron stays more stationary in front of him. Carthron is knocked back by an uppercut and put into a corner as Ali unloads with slow heavy punches. Carthron looks dazed. Carthron is able to jab his way out to the middle of the ring and circle. Body shots by Carthron, keeping his left hand low and breathing heavily. Left hook by Ali! Carthron buzzed!! Carthron leans back against the ropes and snaps off in a quick whiplash motion. Ali comes forward with his spine arched, slipping the slow jabs of Carthron. Hard two-handed shove into the chest by Ali, sending Carthron staggering back before the bell sounds.

40-36 Ali

 

I think these two are throwing punches at each other at literally one hundredth the speed Haye and Chambers would.

 

Color commentator: Larry "Legend" Holmes!

 

Blatantly biased for the American. :yep

 

Round 5

Carthron gets off to a good start, flipping lefts and rights up into the body of Ali while leaning into him. Carthron is circling inside and jabbing, working the body a bit. Ali patiently comes forward and throws big power shots upstairs. Leaping left hook, Carthron hurt!! Ali chases, throwing hard left hooks to the head and body and trying to bash Carthron's guard down with a chopping right hand!! Carthron looks like he's ready to fall, but doesn't!!

10-9 Ali

50-45 Ali

 

Carthron trains at Wild Card, FWIW. :!:

 

Carthron has narrowly avoided a 10-8 swing in just about every round. He spends about a minute of each one on ***** St. but just won't keel over.

 

Larry Holmes is rasping that Ali isn't using the jab enough.

Sounds like he's been smoking heavily since Tyson knocked him out. Like five packs a day.

 

Round 6

Ali is crashing his right arm down repeatedly at Carthron's head, but Carthron is keeping his arm in the way. They're all hurting Carthron without landing cleanly. Carthron is digging his own right hand to the kidney. Ali turns his gloves outward and bats at him with them as cat-paws. Carthron showed a bit of slick defense and worked the body well in the final stretch of that round, but I'm not sure he stole it.

60-54 Ali/Muralimov
