    Are those Madballs on Ishe's shirt?! I had no idea that they'd made it past the 80s.

    Cleven Ishe (whose name Boxrec has incorrectly listed as Cleveland) got TOOLED by another unbeaten prospect named Alfonso Blanco on Telefutura a few weeks ago. Seriously, on the cusp of being stopped for six straight rounds. Just completely outclassed.

    We'll see if Colvin can match that impressive performance by Blanco.

    I think most of the pressure is on Kahn, hes the one who has something to prove. Zabs already been there and really doesnt have as much to lose. Hes had a full career. Definately Shades of ODLH-Whittaker in this fight.

    Colvin is cocky, walking in with his hands down. Good way to get Campbell'd.

    I don't like Colvin. Bad KO waiting to happen.

    Round 1

    Ishe springs at the knees and moves around nervously, tossing out jabs and swaying side to side with his neck flapping. Ishe feints with his right and then taps with his left on the inside. Colvin is fighting very patiently, just lining up some hard right hands. Colvin is tagging and hurting Ishie almost whenever he throws. Colvin walks Ishe down and hammers him with an overhand right, which he then whips underneath to work as an uppercut when Ishe tries to lean in and smother him. Underhanded flurries by Ishe, and some clowning as he rolls around above the waist - very loosey-goosey. Colvin wings a few clubbing lefts and rights at Ishe and just brushes the back of his neck.

    10-9 Colvin

    Colvin is way too wide with his punches, and telegraphs bad. He is busting up Ishe though.

    10-9 Colvin

    Colvin looks like much more fun to watch, in person, than on tv. He seems to be well-aware that he'son tv, in front of an empty can.

    Holy **** Colvin, put your hands up or you're going to get sparked by anyone with talent.

    Just realized I hit 2000 posts. Good to hit the number in one of IB's round by round threads with my favorite posters.

    Colvin is kind of a Max Baer wannabe.
