Edision Miranda-Isaac Chilemba and Hylon Williams Jr-Rances Barthelemy RBR

I was very happy with it too.

Are you doing the German undercard also IB?

 

I actually had a shutout for Rances Barthelemy, 80-72. :conf

I wanted to give Williams a share, and was very tempted at times (especially rounds 3 & 4, in about equal measure) but in the end it just wasn't conscionable. Williams won halves of rounds, but every time he started well with his cute mobile boxing or whizz-by spurts of boxer-slugger work on the inside to get the better for the opening minute or even 90 seconds it would inevitably revert back to Barthelemy just pushing him back to the ropes and stamping his head (although many were rabbit shots) and particularly body. Williams is skilled and was competitive, but just weaker and that made the difference all night long.

The ability of Barthelemy to seamlessly switch stances was just the nail in the coffin, IMO.

 

Oh - wtf was up with this little nugget?


Teddy Atlas: Kid Blast might be the 2000's version of the Brown Bomber. :blood :huh

 

BTW, that HW fight sucked. I know Abdu is exciting as a KO artist and everything, but that was dismal while it lasted. He barely looked in any better shape or conditioning than Rodriguez. (ok I'm exaggerating a little, but still...)

He did very poorly in the 1st. Then he was fortunate that the soft tub of **** was already winded, stationary and ripe for the picking.

I wasn't impressed with anything except his power. (and even there, it isn't like he scored an out-cold clean knockout...)

 

If they ever do a biopic on Pantera, he should be played by a younger Eddie Murphy (whether via time travel, cloning...whatever works)

 

Since when is Teddy supposed to make sense?!?
I think it's your own doing if you take the man seriously.

 

I do like that even his butt-licking sycophant Tessitore didn't bother dignifying that bit of insanity with a response.

Just awkward silent dead air for like ten seconds.

 

Chilemba's skin tone and mohawk color make me crave Italian pastries. :?

 

he changed it to red during the fight :yep

malignaggi had a hearcut inbetween rounds... he changed his haircolor during the rounds

 

Very nice performance from Miranda, I must say. One of his better ones.

Patient, efficient, sharp...

Up until the headbutt anyway...I'm caught up through three.

30-27 EM

Even the round where he got cut I liked his body punches better than any of Chilemba's fade-away work from distance.

 

:roll: Don't score blood. Especially drawn from accidental clashes.

 

Damn, Byrd taking the double points for rabbit punches by both!!!! :scaredas: Badass, never seen a ref do that.


Good for him, establishing control. Not unwarranted. Both were guilty.

 

That makes the 5th a 9-8 round for Miranda.

That's right, 9-8.

(10-9 at face value, then subtract the point deducted from each = 9-8 :good)

...which has me at 49-44 Miranda at the halfway mark. He is simply landing better, although ESPN's stats look to favor Chilemba in connects and %.

 

atsch

Sillakh annihilates Chilemba or Miranda.

 

Isaac took the 6th and 7th clearly. 67-64 Miranda.

Miranda may have bled out all his will in the first half...

I'm about to find out what the rest of you already know (whether this ended inside schedule..)






It is starting to appear as though it might have. :think



BTW, Atlas is a **** for berating that fan on Twitter who said he had Miranda up. "Open your eyes!!" :twisted: Seriously, **** Teddy.
