Sergey Kuzmin vs. Amir Mansour & Eduard Troyanovsky vs. Carlos Manuel Portillo RBR

Yeah, although to be honest I don't think he's going to be as good a pro as he was in the amateurs.

 

Pretty sure the Troya fight is the main event after Kuzmin-Mansour.

 

Hmm. He looked unremarkable to me until he finally landed in the fourth, against a chubby guy who was the opposite of game. Maybe I'm just being too critical.

 

It is

 

That was the first fight on the card

 

Here is the running order of the whole card:

1 fight: Svetlana Kulakova against Judy Waguthii(15 wins,7 losses and 4 draws) for the International Boxing Organization World Female Super Lightweight. Kulakova looks decent, has power and is effective with her pressure style but doubt he can beat someone like Nicole Adams or Katie Taylor.

2 fight: Evgeny Smirnov(10 wins with one draw) against Jhon Gemino(16 wins with 9 loses)

3 fight: Georgy Chelokhsayev (12-1-1, 10 KOs) against Evgeny Pavko (16-1-1, 11 KOs). This is another domestic dust-up for a bigger fight in the future.

4 fight: Andrey Afonin/Viktar Chvarkou in a decent regional dust-up. Decent fight, Chvarkou had a decent amateur career. Had fight against Teslenko in some tournament final but lost it by points.

5 fight: Sergey Lubkovich/Michele Di Rocco. This fight will show how good Lubkovich is. A must win the fight for him.

6 fight: Valery Tretyakov(11/0) against Arnold Khegai( 10 wins one draw). Khegai can upset Tretyakov in the regional dust-up.

7 fight: Alexey Yegorov/Andrey Knyazev in a decent domestic match up. Knyazev is a battle-tested journeyman, so this is a learning fight for promising Yegorov.

8 fight: Alexey Papin/Ismail Sillah is a fight for Papin's resume. Not a bad fight. Papin by KO.

9 fight will be a warm-up fight for the headlining fight: Sergey Kuzmin/Amir Mansour in a career crossroads fight. Career defining fight for Kuzmin, a must-win fight for him and for Mansour as well.

10 and the final fight will be the headlining fight of this fight card: Eduard Troyanovsky/Carlos Manuel Portillo. This is a tune-up fight for Troyansky as he is building up another challenge for the world title. Portillo is undefeated in 21 fights and has 16 KO's. Portillo hasn't fought anyone but if he wins this he will get some bigger fight in the future.

 

Waguthi already lost on points.

 

I'll always remember him for having a vicious downstairs attack. He can whack to the body, man.

 

That's fair enough, you just had higher expectations. I saw his earlier UD win over Kubich and Egorov looked even more ponderous and ineffective.

Still, Egorov won't be that easy to beat, he punches hard, has a solid chin and good fundamentals.

 

Oh no! That chin....

 

Absolutely brutal. Hate to see Ismail go down like that....

 

What is Russian for "oh dear, dear, dear "?
