Santos Saúl Álvarez Barragán vs. Terence Allan Crawford & Christian M'billi vs. Lester Martínez RBR

3 - 2 Martinez

 

3-2 Martinez? Finding it hard to call but Martinez is landing more. Great scrap so far.

 

3-2 M'bili. Martinez had a good fifth, though M'bili had his moments.

 

Not a jab in sight

 

Good fight

 

4-1 mbili

 

I forgot how insufferable Kellerman was on commentary

 

Agreed

 

I don’t recall ever seeing punchstats broken down into “lefts” and “rights”.
What is the point of this information?

 

5 Mbilli

I have it 3-2 Martinez overall.

 

accurate tbh

 

lester needs to stop pushing him off. that uses up a lot of energy. he needs to take a half step back and shoot a straight punch as mbilli step towards him again.

 

Much as i dislike Max's commentary, i disagree with this analysis too.

The idea that a pro boxer or ex pro can't be wrong in his analysis or that a non boxer can't analyze some things better than a pro boxer isn't true.

I remember Ward saying after Usyk-Joshua 2 that Usyk was too small for Fury. He dismissed Usyk completely as a non threat and gave him no shot whereas a non boxer like me thought that Usyk had a legit 50-50 shot of beating Fury.

In that case, non boxer me was right.
