Remember John Mugabi vs Rene Jacquot?

Remember it well thanku. Very disappointing way for a fight to end

 

Ain't that just like a Frenchman………...cheese-eatin' surrender monkeys.

 

That follow through on that punch was something though. Look at the effect it had on the opponent's foundation.

To this day, I still can't get over the job Jacquot did on Curry. Really a shame seeing favorites losing like that---kind of like Arguello losing to "Pink Cat Walker". Round after round of a six shooter with no bullets. Almost rather see them stopped quick than getting outclassed like that.

 

That's not what they said in Napo's time...

 

I had actually never seen that fight before. A more extreme version of Sergio Martinez vs Miguel Cotto. Sometimes just reading the result on Boxrec doesn't tell the whole story.

 

D.Curry gave Rene Jacquot credit for defeating him at JrMW. Jacquot, who was a big underdog, said pre-fight that his main asset was his strength, which Curry concurred post fight. Curry said his legs went by the end of the 6th rd of the fight...and he really had nothing left after that point.

 

He had no legs going in. Look at how wide those feet were spread compared to say, the Kim fight.
