    Most definitely.
    Good call.

    He had a rough start but tightened up his defense. And by the midway he was sitting down and hurting Akhmedov.

    I said that too, can't miss with the uppercut, was there all day. Akhmedov only ever took it away when he focused on his movement but he kept lapsing on his concentration to do that. But in fairness to him Góngora kept cutting him off and putting him off his game and that's what the lovely science of boxing is all about!

    Just noticed Carlito's Way on Gongora's trunks.

    GREAT movie. I like this guy, he showed a ton of heart tonight.

    Oh man, I cant get over this, I'm happy like a little girl.
    Love Gongora man, honestly automatically jumps in my top 5 fav fighters list. What a performance, what a ****ing warrior and durable as they come
    Feed Canelo to Gongora he'll get Cinnamon out of there in 1 round haha

    Nah.
    He ate a LOT of clean punches.
    And he fought in a predictable rhythm.
    Set, exploded from his guard and then reset again, looking for another opportunity to explode.

    Yeah once he wasn't worried about looping punches coming around the guard (which Akhmedov strangely abandoned), he kept that guard nice and tight and nullified the straight punches coming in for the most part.

    I'm happy for Gongorra that was great, hope he gets a nice opportunity behind it.

    Is he really the first ever champion from Ecuador? Amazing.

    Why the hell is Kovalev fighting again?

    I'm so glad I'm watching this fight night. I had not the intention, tbh, but I changed my mind. And I'm enjoying it a freaking lot.

    well, this guy in ecuador must be a giant. There people are not very tall. Nice people, though. Lovely people.

    I love when I tune into an absolute banger like this. I've seen so many this year as well, lockdown fights have been special.
