PBC On Spike TV: Erislandy Lara Vs. Delvin Rodriguez-Beterbiev Vs. Johnson RBR

Alvares vs Dudchenko just started yet.

 

For which fans? The ones that only care about knockouts?

Some of us don't mind twelve rounds of skillful boxing with lopsided video-game-level connect stats.

Don't speak on behalf of all fans.

 

‏@SpikeSports
Now trending in the US: #PBConSpike. The power punching accuracy of @Laraboxing will do that!

Looks like the public disagree with the 'it was boring, he's a woman, he ran away' assertion.

 

Alvarez 1-0, he's making all the pressure.

 

This. I thought Lara was fine. He threw punches and was active, it was not a negative fight. Lara just isnt a seek and destroy type, which is good because boxing needs variety.

He was active and won every second of every round.

 

Even when I played video games, I always tried to perfect my aggressive counterpunching skills.

 

Please. Get off your high horse with your purist perspective. You know exactly what i am talking about. Being a star is more than just skills. You have to attract fans. And when he fights like this, he won't do that.

 

Over in round 2, Alvarez hurt him bad.

 

Szpilka next.

 

Forget learning how to cut off the ring just make the ring smalleratsch
Really and you are a fan of boxing:huh TJ Max???

Sounds like Lara lacked the confidnce to go for the finish tonight but also sounds like he "BOXED" beautifully.

I just wish he would commit more to his punches and throw a little caution into the wind.:nod

I cant wait to hear how Ronnie views his performance tonight.

Sure hate I missed the fights but thanks CST80 for keeping the RBR alive tonight.

Again HOTEL cable sucks:hand:rant

Early flight out of Nashville to DC and again a hotle that lacks boxing (Showtime) so I will be living through the RBR yet again:twisted:

 

Attract casuals? Maybe not.

Please those of us who enjoy what he did tonight? (we, not the occasional dabbler tuning in to see the next Mike Tyson, forming the core of the viewership) Keep on trucking, Erislandy. :good

 

My point is Lara always saids he wants to be a star. But he wont be one if he keeps fighting like this. You have the attract the casuals to do that. From a purist perspective, of course it's beautiful.

 

Great job by Lara, wish he'd put Delvin away though.
