Braehmer is soooo hitable... after all those years you would expect him to learn some defense... and this guy is really not a world beater, a basic 1-2 fighter which uses his jab more as a measuring stick than anything else (okay, it sends the message what comes). Bad stamina, bad work-rate, no power behind punches after a few rounds... I'm curious where Braehmer is going... especially since Erdei is comeing back gown to light heavy.
wow! what a fight that was. Never saw that one coming. It could have been stopped and quite a few refs would have stopped it BUT Brähmer showed afterwards that he was still able to fight. Still another setback for Universum as he was short of being stopped by an unknown. Brähmer will need to be protected. I did not think he would be able to beat Dawson or Erdei, but I thought he would be at least a top 5 in this weak division...now I'm not sure anymore. I am also still not sure, if he is really a light heavy. Anybody else feels that he might be better served campaigning at SMW even though the competition is stronger? What do you guys think?
Yes, the defense is really horrible, so is his stamina (although looking at him, he should be able to improve here if he becomes more disciplined). His best assets are his chin and his one-punch power and those would carry him better at SMW.
sorry, the other part of the comment (stamina, work-rate and 1-2) are meant for his opponent... I think his stamina is more or less okay, otherwise he wouldn't be able to go full 12 with Garray...but his chin is really outstanding! overall, I'm really disappointed how poorly he boxed tonight and how little he has developed over the last year. unless he got lucky with mandatories which will possibly worse than him, he's not going to be a belt-holder for a long.
I don't think he could beat Bute or anyone in the super 6 so the best he could do would be fight for the WBO belt and if (and it's a big if,) he won it hope to hold it until the super 6 is over and those fighters are free to fight for other belts. I don't know how easily he could make 168 now but if he was struggling at the weight before it could affect his work rate and stamina, which aren't great at 175, making the weight again. tbh I don't think he'd be in the top teir at either SMW or LHW and his options at either are limited.
