Randall Bailey gets better with age

Sam, you should look into Rafal Jackiewicz. He's a decent fighter and a good story; kind of a European Cinderella Man - coming on with a string of great upset wins late in a journeyman career (truest sense of the term journeyman - mostly fighting at home in Poland but doing a good amount of globetrotting as well). Think Carlos Baldomir but a bit more versatile in the ring. Most recently he ground out a decision over once-hyped Delvin Rodriguez, planting his flag in the middle of the ring and bravely asserting dominion over this turf with a pesky jab and refusal to budge more than a few inches at a time.

Zaveck is a carefully aggressive fighter (and earlier in his late-bloomer career was carefully matched), who got his cherry popped by the teak-tough Pole but recently snared a good win by outpunching Isaac Hlatshwayo. He's one of these guys who usually manages to hit more than he gets hit, with 75% of his defense being his offense itself and the other 25% being a quick spring off his toes to leap straight back, which he won't get away with against a good elite ring cutter. Zaveck-Cotto would be FOTY-level action with their respective styles.

I'd favor either to decision Bailey...but as has been stated, only a true elite is a guarantee to not become a KO victim even at 147. Neither is quite a true elite.

 

Bonsu got no chin. Bailey got served by Urango. Urango got served by Alexander.

 

Alexander got served by Steve, according to the nametag worn by the Applebees server.

 

bonsu was still a stop 10 welter in the past 5 year at one point... 10-15 atleast.. good win

 

No doubt, it's a good win for sure - but it doesn't change who and what Randall is.

He's the same old KO King.

Give him a target and you give him a win. Give him angles, movement, counterpunching (or just have an amazing chin or impregnable defense coming forward) and take one from him.
