Mikkel Kessler vs. Mehdi Bouadla RBR

2 minutes in both have their own moments. Turley outboxing and countering nicely on Frampton last minute or so now. Turley just has no pop, if had any pop Frampton would be gone already. A Turley round.

 

Turley comes in and eats a right, gets back on the back foot flicks some jabs. Big left hand by Frampton. Frampton on the inside digging to the body. Turley's mouthguard comes out. MASSIVe LEFT HAND as Turley holds, holding on still. He's got a lot of bounce though, recovered quickly, Frampton lands a 5 punch combo Turley wings left hand, holds on. LEFT HAND AGAIN 10 SECONDS LEFT TURLEY HOLDS ON! And the bell rings! That's it! Good fight, close fight.

 

Oh yea.. Kesslers Jab is beginning to work again.. Havent seen that in 3-4 fights.. Also Kessler showed some new hooks and uppercuts.. not bad.. And a hardworking warrior!...
Im a bit worried about Kesslers movement speed.. He didnt move back so fast.. and he was to easy to hit.. Can he work on his movementspeed, its gonna be interesting against Bute or Stieg

 

Scorecards are in:

98-91
96-93
98-92

Carl Frampton! Wide scorecards. I thought it was closer, I had it 96-92 Carl Frampton, but hey it is what it is.

 

You did not just put Magee in higher stock than Kessler did you?

Did you watch Kessler/Froch? Please tell me who was on the backfoot the entire night.

Doesn't bring pressure:roflatsch

 

Really disappointed with Carl Frampton, I expected more from him. First time seeing him and Barry said before the fight "This is the best prospect I have seen in 30 years,"

I gotta say I strongly disagree with that. Decent fighter, at the moment, he has a lot of potential with this only being his 11th fight, but he still has a lot of work to do.

 

Bute doesnt have an inside game either really. And Kessler can bring pressure in his own way he also brings speed, power and skills that Bute hasnt seen before. This would be a tough fight to call anyone who thinks either guy will undoubtedly easily win is clearly bias or doesnt know **** about boxing or the other fighter.

Bute looks to be the real deal sometimes but he also doesnt look all that great sometimes and when looking at his resume he should be easily beating everyone he fights and look amazing doing it.

This is a 50/50 fight. Both guys have there flaws but have there strenghts but style wise its very hard to predict how it will turn out. Kessler has an amazing chin but Bute's uppercut is deadly to the body and head and could KO anyone if he caughts them right but also how will Bute take a hard right hand from Kessler? Who has Bute been hit by that has the combo of speed and power that Kessler has? Miranda is an overrated puncher and slow and I dont think he ever caught Bute with a good shot, Andrade is slow and has heavy hands but isnt a big puncher he wears his opponents down, Magee's speed and power are average. Bika? Berrio?

This is def a fight I wanna see and mostly because I really dont know how its gonna turn out and for both guys a win would be huge and a lose could be devastating. Hope it happens and the winner fights the Super 6 champion.

 

Rees-Murray in the locker room, gloves on and everything....The. Fight. Is. NEXT!!!!! :happy

 

Berrio and Miranda are also both light years slower then Kessler and you can see every punch the throw at you. There power is also overrated and built big KO% against tomato cans. Oh and neither guy hit Bute with a biggg punch esp Miranda. And now thinking about the Miranda fight Miranda did well with the jab and fighting on the outside with Bute and if Miranda can have some success with that then I'd love to see what Kessler does.

 

There's onlyy onnneeee Andy Murray! Onnnneee Andy Murray! The crowd chants!

Ring Announcer...announcing. "The Quiet Man" Andrew Murray!!! Crowd errupts. Murray comes out to the music RHCP-Otherside.

 

Murray is stoic as he walks into the ring. Very focused. Crowd starts singing along to the RHCP song....song stops.

Gavin "The Rock" Rees! Bit of mix as Rees walks in.

 

Andy Murray down to earth guy.

 

Can't stop the rock. (Repeat 10 times)

It's that robot song that Rees comes out to.

 

I have a feeling Murray is going to upset Rees.

 

He might. It's a bit of a mystery. This is a big step up for Murray...the first real step up, we'll see if he can deal with a World Class opponent in somebody like Gavin Rees.
