Rd 2 was much of the same.. every time they get close Banks holds. It's annoying. I think both landed one decent shot, Banks was better.. but Walker controlled more of hte round. 19-19
Yeah. 4th round TKO on unanswered punishment. Was a bit weak, really. Ref was arguably premature, but nobody looked that great in that fight.
Yes, corner threw the towel. after 3 rounds in the banks vs walker... 2-1 walker, banks really isn't do anything.
Banks having an easier time landing his right straight. Ustinov won. The announcers were very critical of his performance though.
Rd 3 A lot of the same.. Banks needs to be warned about soon.. whenever Walker get's closed he wraps him up. Banks just sitting back trying to counter. Walker didn't land much, but neither did Banks. Walker by a thin thin edge. 2-1 Walker
Round 3 Walker pushes straight at Banks and bends him backwards over the top rope - almost looking like he's going to muscle him straight out of the ring. Banks employing a hit-and-hold strategy, pushing a jab into Walker's chest and then bringing his right arm around Walker's back to tie him up. Walker running a steady trickle of drippy little jabs, not unloading much power yet. Walker finally flurries at the bell but does not steal the round. Banks 29-28
Completely agree. I like refs that are more aggressive with warnings and point deductions to fighters like Banks who clinches everytime the opponent gets in close.
Can't believe the ref is letting Banks clinch this much. 10 seconds don't elapse in which Banks isn't clinching. Audience getting annoyed
