Mikkel Kessler vs. Mehdi Bouadla RBR

He we go, they touch gloves. Look at that 6 inch difference in height, and here we go ding ding. Round 1 starts up.

Who R Ya! Who R Ya!

 

I can't ****ing wait for Bute-Kessler!!

 

So he was impressive? Interesting. I haven't seen the fight yet. Would you say he's ready for Bute?

 

Rees FAST!

 

Rees landing some rights over the jab on Murray. Speed is killing Murray in this first round. Rees jabbing nicely, Murray with a couple of range finders, back comes Rees with a nice 4 punch combo. Rees standing outjabbing Murray, Murray reaching a bit. Big Rees round.

 

Is it too much to hope that all these fights come together without problems? And not with the hiccups that has been hitting the big fights (Pac/May, Haye/Klit, Khan/Bradley)

 

This fight has accidental headbutt written all over it. Rees 2-0 so far.

 

Murray not quite as tight in this round. Throwing a little bit more now, Rees still finding the target though, Murray can't handle his speed right now. Rees still out jabbing Murray. Rees is waiting for Murray to jab and Rees stuffs a jab right back in his face. Murray 1-2 misses, Rees bobbing his head. He is comfortable. No controversy here, Rees is up 2-0.

 

Murray finding his range a bit for the first 30 seconds. Murray lands a 1-2 steps back, lands a left hook. Murray looking to counter Rees' jab with a right. Now Rees expecting that jabs moves his head lands a right. Rees digging to the body. Murray with a 1-2, Rees comes back with a right and a left hook. Jab, straight right, left hook by Rees. Murray backs up. Left hook by Rees picking up the pace. 3-0 Rees clearly. Better round for Murray though, he's getting closer and closer.

 

Rees improved since the last time I watched him (Kotelnik). Showing some nice speedy boxing skills. 3-0.

 

Murray needs to read the Valuevian book on how to effectively use your height advantage.

 

Both land jabs, left hook by Rees, Rees backs up and jabs at Murray. Murray has no answers. Rees comfortable, Murray missing with the 1-2. Murray pressing, Rees lands a lead right. They tie up Rees turns around, and they stay like that for a few seconds and Murray throws a right to Rees' back, Ref says no more of that. Straight by Rees, Murray comes back with his own straight right, and that ends round 4.

 

I guess Murray takes this one, ineffective round for both but Andy landed more than before. 3-1.
