Ever fancied being a boxing promoter? (V2!)

Since Gerber and Grant decided to not fight for the mandatory spot with the IBA, Wach is now Toney's mandatory challenger. If you do not face him, you will be stripped of the IBA title.

 

David Price 13-0 (11) Vs Nevan Pajik 16-0 (5) 12 x 3
Price is on brutal form at the moment, beating 3 good fighters by KO in his last 3 bouts. Pajik hasnt faced anywhere near as good as competition, and is often critisized for his alleged little to no punching power. Price is a strong favourite coming in here.

Price is out early, stalking his man and holding his arm out and flicking the jab, landing at will whilst Nevans shots are quick but are falling short most the time, as Price leans back. A cagey left hook from Price ends the first.

Price has the advantage in the first 4, landing the more shots and definitley the cleaner ones, however little damage has been done by either man going into the fith. Price starts stepping up the gear in this round, landing a few more power punches and making the canadian Pajik move back.

The 6th is similar, with Price's long hooks finding his target regularly now. Pajiks face is marked up as the round ends. The 7th see's Nevan having another good go at it, coming forward and meeting Price punch for punch, but its not long before he gasses and Price takes over the round and fight, dominating the 8th and 9th in the process. Nevan looks a gone man as he comes forward in the 10th, and its the case as Price now starts with his heavy bombs, he stabs his straight right followed by the left hook which puts Nevan down. He shakes his head and gets up at 8, but the referee waves his arms and ends it, admist protests. It was the right thing to do though, Nevan wasnt in the fight and didnt have the power or energy to turn the tables round.

Its another solid win for Price as he takes out Pajik in the 10th.

Mike Perez 17-1 (13) Vs Albert Sosnowski 46-4-1 (28)
Perez stopped Jason Gavern in one round last time out whereas Sosnowski hasnt fought since being stopped in the 12th by Alexander Dimitrenko. Perez knows he has to box well to win this 12 rounder against a dangerous oppenent.

Perez comes out early, looking to take Sosnowski out. A few hard shots from Perez in the first doesnt dishearten him though, and even though this pattern continues in the first four rounds Sosnowski isnt for moving, and takes all the shots in his stride, although he doesnt land anything significant on Perez.

Perez decides to box Sosnowski now, taking a step back with his shots and doubling up his jab - and it really shows how classy Perez is, often tagging and landing with ease on the forhead of Albert, who clearly is behind in the fight going into the 8th.

This is when Sosnowski starts to throw his own bombs, and they do now start to land. Big overhand rights followed by left hooks has Perez backing up in the 8th. Perez comes back to nick the 9th with his movement but Sosnowski has him back pedelling again in the 10th. A strong 11th from Albert gives him confidence in the 12th to go for a KO , and he actually comes close to getting it, landing a short left hook that drops Perez for 4. However, Perez gets up and moves away for the rest of the round, looking like he's won it.

''Ladies and Gentlemen, we go to the scorecards after 12 action packed rounds, for a Majority desison

Judge 1 see's it as 115-115
Judge 2 see's it as 115-114 and
Judge 3 see's it as 115-112 to your winner by Majority desision,,,

Mike Perez !''

Albert Sosnowski has himself to blame in his majority desision loss, the last 5 rounds showed how much he could actually of done to Mike Perez.

 

Not on this weeks simulated fights - but if Toney states no interest in defending it on the next date (Monday) then yes, I will make that fight.

 

Dereck Chisora 15-1 (9) Vs Malik Scott 32-0 (11)
Malik comes out of retirement after baiting from Low Blow Promotions to face Chisora - if he wins he will take Chisora's place in the stable. The world is unsure wether this is a ploy to get a good name on Chisora's record or to really replace Chisora- who hasnt looked brilliant in his last two fights (LSD Tyson Fury, WMD Jason Estrada).

Malik, has never faced anyone of a good level really, and Chisora is his best oppenent to date. This showed early on as Chisora started to blast away and unload heavy shots and Malik seemed shocked at this kind of fight from an oppenent. Malik looked confused after the first.

Chisora went about his work similar in the next 4 rounds, and Malik was being totally humilated and embarrassed by a much better fighter in Chisora, who didnt let Malik land a clean blow. His embarrasment was nearly over anyway, when the 6th came, Malik threw a big swing with his right hand and nearly knocked himself off balance, when Chisora captilised on his open oppenent and decked him with a right cross. It seemed that it had been a slip and the ref ruled it as one, but when he got up Malik was all over the place! A couple more big rights from Dereck and he was on the floor and not getting up. The referee counted him out.

Malik Scott probably wished he hadnt bothered getting into the ring with Chisora, he was embarrassed and stopped in 6 brutal rounds.

 

Robert Helenius 16-0 (11) (EU) Vs Alexander Dimitrenko 31-2 (21)
European Union Championship
Helenius was in a close fight (according to the scorecards) with top contender Tomasz Adameck when he battered him and stopped him in the 11th (according to the referee). The fight was been full of controversy since but the EU title stays around Helenius' waist. Dimitrenko recently lost the regular European title in a horrible fight with Povektin, but now he gets a shot at redemption when taking on Helenius for the minor EU belt.

The first two rounds go to Dimitrenko simply on how hard he's working, unloading 70 shots per round. Not much lands, but Helenius is smothered and cant get his own work off. However, Alexander didnt train as hard for this fight it seems and he's knackered in the following rounds.

This lets Helenius take the rounds on accurate punching and more workrate, with Helenius seemingly sweeping rounds 3-6. In the 7th, Dimitrenko managed to start working properly again, but this time, Helenius could time him coming in and landed good shots over the top onto Dimitrenko's chin. It was the 9th when Dimitrenko got some success, and he definitley earned a portion at least of the 9th and 10th as he went punch for punch with Helenius.

Helenius starts to use his feet though in the 11th, and Dimitrenko is now too weary to match him. Helenius dances around him in the 11th and 12th, landing some quick hard shots which easily see him take both rounds it seems, and probably defending his title with a hard fought desision.

''Ladies and Gentlemen, we go to the scorecards with a majority desision in order ;
Judge 1 scores the bout 116-112
Judge 2 scores the bout 115-115 and
Judge 3 scores the bout 115-114 to your winner...

and still EU champion, Robert Helenius !''

Thankfully, theres no controversy this time as Robert Helenius outpoints Alexander Dimitrenko to defend his EU title.

Deontay Wilder 18-0 (18) Vs Danny Hughes 8-2-2 (3)
Deontay takes on another oppenent that seems another KO victory is in store. Hughes, a decent fighter who is classed as an 'Area level' fighter should see another KO by Wilder.

This fight guys, was the shortest fight i've ever seen on TB. I think the shortest one I'd seen before this was like Mike Tyson vs Enzo Mac or something like that, over in just under a minute. But this fight, litterally, Deontay came out, moved around, threw a one two and it was over. Hughes was out as soon as he went down and the referee stopped it, at 11 seconds of the first round :shock:

Wilder shows he doesnt need to fight people like Danny Hughes anymore, stopping him in a meer 11 seconds. Wow.

 

Michael Grant 47-4-1 (45) Vs Martin Rogan 14-2-1 (7) 10 x 3 mins
II
A rematch of the barnstormer these two had last time out, a 10 round draw which saw both men go down and both men give it all in a total world class viewing. The rematch should see an interesting turn, to see wether both men try and make it the classic it was last time or try and outsmart the other man.

Grant, last time round, made it look easy when he boxed Rogan, and he did so in the bout. From the first round, Grant moved off his jab, snapping Rogans head back and making him look like an ordinary plodder. The first four rounds were all the same, and Grant was easily dominating here. The fight seemed like a prospect fighting a bum, as Grant tryed out his tools and Rogan swung at the air.

Rogan came out faster than he had in the other rounds in the 5th, but Grant was still out boxing him, only he made a mistake of backing straight to the ropes off his jab, and Rogan followed up with a brutal hook to the body that sent Grant down. Last time Grant was in agony off the same punch ! Grant struggles up at 8, but theres long left in the round! Rogan starts hammering Grants head.. Grants hands go up and boom! To the body ! Grants rolling round on the floor! He cant answer the count ! Its over ! Rogan was losing 40-36 on all cards when he went body snatching ! Amazing stuff here !

Larry Olubamwio 11-2 (9) Vs Danny Williams 43-10 (33)
Larry won a highly controversial desision last time out against John McDermott, taking a strangely unanimious points verdict. Willams is said to be badly 'shot' now and he is evidently way past his prime, and Larry shouldnt have as much troubles with him as he did with McDermott.

Larry comes out early, jabbing then unloading his mega powerful shots. Williams trys and works whilst Larry is jabbing, but then has to move away and cover up as Larry bangs him with wild, brutal hooks. The problem is, that most of Williams shots are blocked by Larry, which means Larry probably takes the first two rounds. This causes Williams to take chances in the third, which pays off as he's landing well until he charges into a right hand that drops him flat. He's up at 9, in a bad way when the ref waves Larry in to finish him off. He unloads against the ropes as Williams sags to the canvas and the referee rightly waves it off.

Williams should retire, after being battered by a man he'd probably of destroyed a few years ago.

 

Shannon Briggs 53-6-1 (46) Vs Janne Katajisto 8-0-1 (3)
Briggs has looked good of late, coming back from his Vitali loss with a 1st round KO and then a 12 round desision win over Monte Barrett. Katajisto is a prospect of sorts, but lives up to his name as the 'Finnish Butterbean' as a plump, out of shape baldy.

Needless to say, Briggs dominates from the opening bell. Not much to say other than Briggs has him down twice in the first off a flurry and then straight rights, and then once again in the third off a left uppercut and then wails on him against the ropes as the ref stops it. An easy win for Briggs.

''The Cannons'' Comeback is looking good with another stoppage against undeafeted Katajisto.

David Haye 27-2 (25) Vs Timur Ibragimov 30-3-1 (16)
Haye has won two bouts via stoppage since his loss to Wladimir Klitschko, so is heavy favourite against Timur here, a solid if not brilliant oppenent. Lets see how it unfolds.

Haye boxes well early on in the fight, moving his head and coming back with his trademark Hayemakers. It isnt a compelling fight, as Timur cant keep Haye off him and cant get to Haye, in fact the first time Timur lands is in the third with a weak jab. Haye starts flurrying after that, and its in the 6th when real damage is done.

Haye swings a right hand then a left hook to the jaw of Timur which makes him stagger badly. A few more right hands and down he goes. He's up at 4, ready to continue when the referee really strangely waves it off. Ibragimov was ready to fight on, win or lose, but the referee stopped it their. Haye was more than certainly going to win but it seems the ref took it for granted.

Ibragimov was way behind when he got up off the floor, but was strangely - and wrongly denied his warrior chance of fighting on.

 

James Toney 75-6-3 (IBA,USBA)
Vs
Mariuz Wach 24-0 (12)
IBA Championship

James Toney was at first reluctant to fight unbeaten Wach, and didnt plan on doing until he was threatened by losing his IBA belt. That was enough motivation for 'Lights Out' to get into the ring tonight. Wach has looked decent so far, but Toney has recently comeback and looked great in his two previous bouts.

Early on, Toney is outclassing Wach with his counter shots, and Wach cant get to Toneys head due to how quick he's moving it. Toney seemingly takes the first two rounds, he doesnt land much but Wach lands even less.

This shows a change in gameplan for Wach, who now starts to target the plump body of Toney. This is a winning gameplan it seems, as Toney is backed up often. He still throws and lands, but Wach powers to the body with fast, hard hooks that trouble James.

Toneys head isnt hit much, and when Wach goes for it he usually misses. Toney uses this to his advantage in the 7th, by covering up his battered body and moving his head. He lands a few pitter patter punches but Wach doesnt land much at all.

The 10th comes and its a really close fight, no clear winner so far. Wach dominates the 10th however with a sustained body attack, and looks to be doing so in the 11th until he is buzzed off a right uppercut from Toney who starts unloading on him.

The 12th is a crap round tbh, with sloppy slappy punches being thrown by both men in desperation. Both men get in equal blows and there is no clear winner as the bell goes - but most people think Wach has got it because of his attack to the body. The ringside expert scores in 115-112 Wach..

''Ladies and Gentlemen, we go to the scorecards where we have a SPLIT desision.

Judge 1 scores the bout 116-114 Mariuz Wach.
Judge 2 scores the bout 115-114 James Toney and
Judge 3 scores the bout, 114-113 to your winner...

and STILL IBA CHAMPION, JAMES ''LIGHTS OUT'' TONEY ''

Chagaev is fighting for the title now.

VITALI KLITSCHKO 42-2 (39) (WBC,WBA,WBO,IBF,IBO,RING)
VS
RUSLAN CHAGAEV 27-1-1 (17)
WBC WBA WBO IBF IBO RING CHAMPIONSHIPS

Vitali is champion after beating his brother Wladimir by KO in the 5th, in a fight he was losing. Wladimir has already dominated and stopped Chagaev, whom now fights for the title. Vitali is overwelming favourite going into the bout.

I dont really want to bore you guys, so i'll cut to the chase. It was the usual Klitschko fight, Vitali jabbed and held when Chagaev got in - which was very rare. Vitali landed brutal straight shots throughout, and when it got to the 7th, a desperate Ruslan jumped into a left hook which sent him down. He was up at 4, but Vitali unloaded on him against the ropes which ended the fight. A simple Klitschko win.
