José Encarnacion Zepeda vs. Ivan Baranchyk & Gabriel Felix Flores Jr. vs. Ryan Kielczweski RBR.

Ivan reminds me of Maidana before Garcia was his trainer...Just flawed enough and raw enough to always bring an exciting fight

 

I think Prograis beats Taylor in rematch. Prograis was too wide-eyed fighting in the UK. He was like a kid in a candy store. Prograis has always been laid-back but he was too humble that night. He didn't have the fire in his belly.

 

this we knew when he shocked jose ramirez.

 

we needed a 15 rounder to seperate in the first fight. stupid they rendered anything other then a draw in that one.

 

Would
Love
To see part 2!!!

This was a classic like Timmy and the Russian along with AB and Maidana

 

His chin is not fine.

Even Abel Ramos badly hurt him some years ago.

There's been guys who had shitty defenses, and solid chins. Baranchyk is not one of them.

But it never appeared he was hit nearly as hard as he hit Zepeda. Some guys are just concussed so much easier than others. I would say Baranchyk falls into that group. It's possible that even though he is in incredible shape he may be too weight drained. Either way, I can't see Baranchyk ever getting above upper level. He just doesn't have the chin. I remember watching Baranchyk when he was starting out, fighting in the tiny NYC venues and just blew guys out, but no one was catching him. That's the difference at the upper levels.

I think we really have to understand that Baranchyk made Zepeda look like Superman because Ivan can't take a punch. Ivan is not as good as we may have thought. We have a tendency to make the winner out to be more than he is in a fight like this because they win in such dramatic fashion.

 

I think Baranchyk is effectively done as a fighter. I hope he's okay.

 

This might be Ko of the year, fight of the year and three rds could easily be round of the year

 

Just watched the replay.

Holy BALLS. One of the craziest fights of all time. Wtf.
