I agree. I didn't think he had much left, but he proved otherwise in that fight. Anyway, his silly reign as a world champion should take an end.
Round 3 Raoui skirts around Buamas and tosses a series of jabs and rights across the back of her hairline as the challenger ducks forward. Buamas is winging in heavy but slow shots pushing forward and getting her arms tangled with Raoui's. Buamas gets her head trapped between Raoui's elbows as she is spun in place while Raoui works to get back to the outside behind her jab. 1-2 over the back by Raoui as Buamas ducks, sloppy. Overhand to the ear by Buamas. Uppercut to the body by Buamas, but Raoui counters with a left hook while dancing out. Head clashes as Buamas moves in. 1-2 by Raoui ducked. Vagina shot by Buamas. No warning. 30-27 Raoui
There will be lots of filler then, because after this is the Chagaev 8-rounder and one other bout (probably 8 or less) :conf
He really doesn't stop even to breathe. Maybe it's because these are two minute rounds, he is trying to overcompensate?
Round 4 Raoui is dancing to her left and holding out her jab. Buamas forces her jab forward, trying to skewer Raoui in place. Body shot by Buamas. Raoui is missing her jabs over the back of Buamas' neck and barely using her right. Buamas keeps ducking her way in and getting shots in to the body, using her jab to gain access. 10-9 Buamas 39-37 Raoui
Those body punches have Nadia badly winded on her stool. She's speaking with her trainer in breathless little moaning gasps, and it's kind of driving me wild.
Round 5 Raoui jabs and goes left, missing with her right hand. Buamas is rolling her head behind her shoulder as she saunters in, looking for body shots. Raoui plays keepaway and plants a jab on her face. Nice jab by Raoui. Buamas is warned for billy-goating. Another jab by Raoui, flush. Downward jab to the body by Buamas. Raoui keeps moving, changing directions, countering with the 1-2 as Buamas slaps over the top with a right hand. Double jab by Raoui gets Buamas ducking, and she pulls her head down and away from a plunging right. 10-9 Raoui 49-46 Raoui
