    I'm taking Akinwande on points here. Thoughts?

    I'm thinking Henry Akinwade should be forgotten and not mentioned at all.

    He was actually a very good boxer.

    I'm thinking he deserves the respect of his named being spelled correctly.

    Agreed.

    Bonecrusher would be way back on the cards just like the Bruno/Witherspoon 1 fight. But there is no 10th round ko here to bail him out. Actually the last 3 rounds would be a hugging contest with like 15 punches landed between them.
