    82 per round for Rahman, 58 for Zuri.
    If nothing else, regardless of how you feel about either guy, that's a unusually active fight for heavyweights.

    I thought it was a very underrated fight for heavyweights. If you want to be a naysayer and a nitpicker, you can do that. But if you want to sit back and enjoy two guys beating the hell out of each other, then watch the fight.

    :lol:

    Ya couldnt tell from WATCHING IT:nono :rofl

    It was entertaining to a degree but I hesitate to consider how they arrived at those totals. :D

    They both looked like DOO DOO:good Rahman basically came forward clubbing, wrestling, pushing, shouldering, leaning, and looking to land the right hand, while sprinkling in some hooks.

    Lawrence won a few rounds and desperately tried to go the distance. The later rounds, saw an accumulation of punches/club thuds, and fatigue catch up to him.

    Rahman should fight Mesi! Its likely the best financial opportunity and then he should hang it up:yep He's not beating top HW's anymore. In fact, he might get HURT fighting as he did last night.
