Middle-of-the-week PPV - Jhonny Gonzalez vs. Jackson Asiku RBR

No problem, luckily caught the fight as I saw this thread all thanks should go to IB really, caught a great, LIVE fight on a Wednesday.

 

Penalosa chopped down Gonzales but Johnny is dangerous specially that left hook of his..

 

Pretty happy with my fight predictions tonight, lol. When I got to the Hilton I was very surprised to see Gonzalez was a 2-to-1 dog. Sadly I did not take a bet.

Hill going down was a bit of a shock, but the man was very winded by the end of round 2. I believe Hill thought Banks would look for a soft spot on the canvas. Hill has a lot of work to be done before he comes back.

 

He didnt chop down Gonzalez.. It was one lucky punch. :yep

 

Agree. Gonzalez was easily winning that fight.

 

At the start of the Hill fight I thought he'd get Banks out early, but once Banks chin held up, it was clear Hill was in for a long night. By the end of the first his mouth was already open, and in the second it appeared he was gaping for air. I told my wife, who was also the photog for tonight for me (lol) that Hill was in trouble...

I had Griffin and Proctor a draw. I had them swapping every round, with proctor winning the 1st and 3rd. I don't see how two judges had it 40-36 to be honest.

 

sounds like gonzalez has a great shot at winning the WBC title at featherweight.

full credit to him, taking on a tough challenge with little to gain, while other fighters got put forward for the title shot (hasegawa and burgos).

 

Wassup korean gangtah!

My prediction was Penalosa via TKO if i remembered correctly.Daym I'm good.The analysis was:If Gonzales stood and banged with a cocconut head like Penalosa he will get chopped to the body and that was what happened because Gonzales looked fragile starving to that weight.And Gerry can take a punch so I figured, Gonzales was going to do his pitty pat BS (like Juan Ma and De leon did) and Penalosa chipping away at his mid section.Did you know PEnalosa made De leon run in the 11th and 12th round? elmer fudd look alike can take a punch.

 

Hey, yes...she was a wonderful singer. For the first three fights of the card I was sitting right next to where the fighters came out. I'm nearly 100 percent sure i was on tv. I was wearing an orange t-shirt, wife was next to me in purple, for what that's worth.

When I moved seats I moved to balcony seats that were to the right of the stage where the ring were, and these seats were amazing. The way the box was built made it seem like I had like a 120 inch tv in front of me watching the fights.

I wrote a fight write-up for the boxing website I covered it for...I can send you think link if you want...The wife got decent pictures, but nothing amazing. The best ones will be in the write-up...that's not me being a jerk and saying I won't share them here, I just have to see which ones the guy uses first.

Oh, the singer...when I was sitting in the balcony she came up and sat next to me and chatted with someone for a while and posed for pictures...can't believe she's only 17, lol.

 

LOL, funny, I went up right before the Roman-Harris fight...if you watch Hill or the other fight you'd probably see me. I was right there when they come down the "aisle" I was on the last seat, probably writing something in a notebook. I remember looking right at Hill's face to try to gauge if he was scared or anything, so...I'm the dude in the orangeish shirt, starting at Hill, lol. At that point I didn't realize the camera was on me, haha. Again, it may have missed me, depending on the shot.
