Round 7 Here comes Col! Backed Bob into a corner, he takes it and fights out, 1 minute in. Wilson tiring, both guys knackered but Bob finishes stronger. 10-9 Bob. Vocale had it 10-10, 68-64 on his card.
Round 8 Wilson down, takes an eight count and Bob all over him. Down again, body shot. And BAM, huge left rip to the body and thats it, down for the third time and the ref stops it. BOB wins TKO 8.
Col McIlthwaite(?) w ko 3 Troy Withers earlier on. Cheers, a bit hard to do a play by play with my kids bugging me to change the channel but hey, thats why they have a tv in their room. Call of the night from one of my twin girls, Emma; "Ohhh, in the nuts". Shes 8!
congrats bob, also called out nathan briggs and sol lets see it work out..... i reckon sol takes him, and briggs could do a number on him now i reckon if they stuck to the correct game plan definately....
I dont see how people can cheer i mean thats the best we have in the heavyweight? I say Anthony or danny or what the hell Katsidis lets do it and win the Australian heavyweight title because they would BLOW away these guys. I would feel so bad if anyone from the rest of the world saw this and thought that is the best we have to offer lol I know the rest of the world sucks also but BIG BOB? 41 years old with more defeats then Katsidis has wins lol well not that many but bloody near.
Ease up mate,nobody is claiming that they are worldbeaters. Just a bunch of tough domestic fighters putting on a good show.. It may be awhile before oz ever produces some quality heavies so have to do with these hardnosed but very limited skilled fighters.. One thing you will always get is action packed fights with these fellas who generally go for the big shots until they run out of puff or knock their opponent out.. Also who really gives a **** what other nations think anyway?? Are you a *****??You care too much about what other think waynesfemale..
To be honest I did too mate but Col just never seemed to get going tonight. I see what your saying Wayne but thats just the state of the heavyweight division here, traditionally not one of the nations best. Still, we have Mark DeMori and Kali Meehan who is going gangbusters at the moment. Hey Bobby, when are you off to the states and if the oppurtunity occured, would you fight for the Oz title? Are you able to or are you contractually bound? Looking thru the rankings from Lt Heavy to Feather though are some real chances, with two or three genuine contenders/prospects in each division. Good nights fighting, don't agree about it being this years best on Fox but a great curtain raiser for the big event Sunday morn. Commiserations to Shane Cameron for just falling short, sounded like he nearly made it home.
One word from all reports on what lost him the bout..CUTS.... Changed his mindset from what i gather..Went from 5-1 rounds up and in control to being tko'd.. Very dissapointing...
