Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson vs Yuri Arbachakov

this is funny cause just the other day i was watching his 2 fights with kittikasem...bloody good fights...i think yuri would beat too sharp...but it'd b a good fight for fans...

 

Actually, I disagree that Yuri was at his peak when he first met Sasakul. He was already on the slide by the time he met Hugo Soto and Arciniega, as he was getting hit a lot more due to his vision problems. He was using his jab as more of a range finder for his right hand in those fights as opposed to a weapon in itself due to is eye troubles. The fact that he performed so well against Sasakul considering how he looked in his three previous bouts was rather impressive and was his last hurra really.

 

Here are my thoughts on Yuri which I posted on a thread in the classic section not too long ago.

 

Do you think he could have beaten Too Sharp?

 

Bump
Would have been a lovely scrap but I think Arbachakov would have found a way to land the straight right down the pipe on Too Sharp.

 

I'd take Too Sharp. He was phenomenal at flyweight.
