Eduard Valentinovich Troyanovsky vs. Josef Zahradník & Batal Zurab Chezhia vs. Dzhamal Usmanov RBR

Manríquez's four professional opponents before this have a combined record of 2-9 (0).

So yeah, his 4-0 was a just a tad padded up back home.

 

Samedov is landing with regularity, thudding shots, but he really can not crack an egg.

 

Corner should just pull Manríquez. Obviously this punishment is going to just continue the rest of the way, as his chin isn't quite poor enough and Samedov's power not formidable enough to result in him getting knocked out clean.

Plus, this is getting monotonous and we need to usher in the main event already. Seven minutes from midnight local time in St. Pete!

 

Very possible, at the rate he is hammering away. He seems to want to maximize his shots by squeezing every drop of his naturally weak power that he can muster onto each one. That really is a good way to end up with Calzaghe/Mayweather brittle paw syndrome.

 

Manríquez jaw-jacked by a couple of looping lefts from the outside, sitting on the ropes to recover and then coming under fire again...but collecting his wits just in time to defend himself and slink away.

Dominant seventh for Samedov. He's up by ...idk, like a zillion points by now.

 

One dull minute remaining..

 

UD for Samedov.

In other news, water is wet.

 

WTF, still not time for the main event?!?!?!

 

Fatima Alanov Dudieva vs. Dorota Norek, 8x2" rounds @ bantamweight

 

Dudieva is 5-0 (3), and Norek is 4-0 (0).

Good chance this goes eight, but at least women's rounds are only two minutes.

 

Troyanovsky and Zahradník will be doing their ring walks around 1am local time, at this point...

 

Oh wow, Norek is much prettier than her Boxrec thumbnail would suggest.

Dudieva is a cutie, too.

 

Dudieva (the Russian a-side here) is the brunette with a red waistband. Norek is the blonde with strawberry braids in the pink halter-top with lots of tattoos.
