My Thoughts On Glazkov/Scott And The HW Scene

:deal

 

Same way I see it. Neither guy looked as good as I thought. BJ was overhyping Scott's work, but it's no surprise BJ would love Scott's fighting style. Malik deserved the win.

I don't know how I feel about either guy against the current top contenders, like Pulev. Wlad's out of the question right now. But Scott's definitely ready for a step up to a top 10 contender now. Glazkov still needs work.

 

It wasn´t a robbery. I scored it 7-3 to Scott but there are 2 rounds extremly close that you can choose between Glazkov and Malik.
I don´t think you can see Glazkov winning this fight...but I can see a draw as a fair result, no doubt.
Very unimpressed with both btw....a bit disappointed with Glazkov though, I expect more of this kid...

 

You say every Russian and Ukrainian fighter won, so your opinion is VOID. Malik Scott got robbed straight up. And Glazkov really doesn't appear to hit that hard after all. Like they said, I think 7 of his 10 finishes were fighters quitting on their stool. He doesn't have as much power as previously thought. Scott should've won 7-3 thought.

No offense, but you also scored Mayweather-Cotto for Cotto.

You either have a tendency to score aggression over boxing & ring generalship, or you just don't like scoring well for the black guy. He's not in the wrong for questioning your objectivity. You basically did the same by claiming we all got "swayed" when watching the fight. No, we did not. I think at the most generous you can give Glazkov 4 rounds. That's at the most generous. I can't remember, but I think 3,4, 5, and 10 were the closest or best Glazkov rounds. Six rounds is completely inconceivable.

 

:rofl

I agree, but let's give "V" a pass. He's much too valuable a member to lose.

- But next time, he pays for the pizza & beer.

 

Did he really score Cotto over Mayweather? If so, he must just hate black people.

 

Which makes you wonder, in restrospect, if those weren't actually fighters being paid to quit.

Seriously.

Glazkov certainly seems to be overhyped and protected.

 

that's a weird conclusion. usually that means matched soft, not one instance of hometown judging. he's actually matched pretty aggressively

 

BJ was hyping him but it was pretty clear to see Malik was doing more to win to the majority of the rounds. Glazkov clearly wasn't active enough, and when he did throw he wasn't effective enough. A lot of people were saying that about BJ during the fight while still thinking Glazkov was losing. Also, even a lot of Glazkov fans said Malik got jobbed. I suppose we where all wrong and you got it right. Thanks for enlightening us.

On a last point. I don't know if it was you or another Glazkov fan that talked about his body-work being ignored by BJ. Mailk went downstairs plenty of times in that fight as well. Even if he abandoned the jab he still touched Glazkov off enough to win the majority of the rounds. You're simply giving Glazkov the benefit of the doubt far too often. It's like scoring Pac-Marquez III for Pac. You can do it only if you give virtually every swing round for Pac. In this case, if you give every non-definitive round to Glazkov you might end up having it a draw. 6-4 is an outrageous score, sorry.

When it comes to scoring, it seems that you and Bama will be on the complete opposite ends of the spectrum. He prefer boxers and generally favors the black guys work. You like aggression and generally favor the Eastern European.

And no, a 10-2 Mayweather scorecard against Cotto is not outrageous, and actually is much more sensible than a 7-5 Cotto card. Make a poll if you care to question that, though.

 

I though it was very competitive as well. Scott probably did enough to deserve the win but Glazkov was coming on in those last two rounds. Two more rounds would have been interesting. Glazkov probably learned much more in that fight than Scott who has reached his competitive ceiling but unfortunately may get kept away from other contenders.
