Friday Ahunanya

I think he's the epitome of a gatekeeper. The fighters he has been able to beat have shown that they were C level ish and the fighters he has lost to have more or less gone on to do something. I enjoy watching him and hope he gets a big money fight before he's done.

 

It was a good win; but my problem with Friday is that he needs to be more active in the fight. He almost let that **** slip away from him and he is a horrible finisher too.

 

Ha ha , here i am,, I haven't been able to comment because i was in Las Vegas training Friday and working his corner on Fight night. We are extremely happy with the win and understandibly see what you are saying, about him smothering his own work.. I find that the hard part is motivation, i needed to almost jockey Friday to do more work from ringside on Friday evening. I thought we won a bit more convincingly than the cards read it , but we can't afford to allow guys to be let off the hook when we have them dont and all but surrendering. I am over the moon however, we have a few nice options and as being victorious against 2 unbeaten cats in a row we are in a nice place as afr as options go. I will keep you all posted.. Merqui Sosa and I are happy with the new team Ahunanya and he is a more relaxed fighter now. Thanks for the positive comments.. I have never been more happy with Friday, he fractured his hand too in the fight and it took him forever to pee a damn sample he was so excited and dehydrated after the fight.. God bless..

 

Agree.

 

I thought the way he finished Cameron in that 12th was very nice, he put together a great combination..

Against Alonzo i have a big problem with the way the referee intervened with a major point in the fight to confer with the doctor.. That **** was a bit bogus...

 

I don't think Friday will emerge as a bonafide contender...he doesn't seem to have the talent. However I am impressed by his latest winning streak, and I think he deserves a big fight.

One or two of the alphabet organizations will probably rate Friday in their top 10 now. That should be enough to earn him a shot at the big money...maybe he'll be matched against a top contender in an eliminator. Let's see how he does.

 

Bigcat, didn't Friday knock down Iggy, and got robbed. Can you repeat what happened? Wasn't the fight stopped prematurely?

I'm from NZ, and saw Friday beat Cameron. Although I badly wanted Cameron to win, I wish Friday all the best. Why are you having trouble motivating him? Does he get up for the big ones? He has always lost when he's stepped up.

 

When I heard of the win, I thought of you, Bigcat...good going for you and everyone in Team Friday!

 

Did you all see my plea on the front page to have Friday fight Chagaev?

I have already been told in the lounge that it is an epic fail, but I still maintain that this would be an interesting and intruiging fight.

 

Its always great to have someone like friday come from behind and pull some surprising victories.

However as far as title shots go its a bit shady for someone like him. Too big a risk for too little money, if the man comes in and fights the fight of his life...

Hasnt friday sparred with both tyson and wlad?

 

He definitely sparred with Tyson. There's a youtube video of Tyson where he thanks Friday for his help but forgets his last name.

 

What's Friday's full name? What's Friday's full name?
