Soliman fight in the Contender

Leave this forum NOW you dog rooter..

 

Can anyone give me a link to the rest of the full episodes???

has it even started on Aus tv?? i didnt think it had

 

yeah i was thinkin the same thing...

Sam beat Sakio by MD back in 2002 according to boxrec...


whats MD?

 

Majority Disision means one judge scored it a draw.

 

oh ok thanx man...

would be interesting seeing those 2 dudes int the ring again and how the contender affects the way they feel bout each other etc etc

 

watchin the fight then...

Sam didnt look that great he was chewin on the uppercut whenever max through it pretty much...

Max lost but he didnt seem to be hopeless..... maybe Pep harsh words at the end of the fight will sink in to him..... i can see him winnin a good amount of fights in the future

 

I Thought sam looked sloppy on the fight but the yank had a defeatist attitude that didnt really do him any good.

Sam got hit a fair bit and was lucky the yank wasnt built like a brick otherwise some of the shots he ate may have wobbled him.

I reckon if Sam fought winky now he probably wouldnt have troubled him as much as he did back then.

But credit does need to go to Sammy's conditioning - he was in F*#king awesome shape, ripped as F*#k and was very well aware of this - almost to the point of being intimidating because of it.

 

the guy he fought looked to be in terrible shape - really soft around the midsection; there is always a few guys on the contender who drop out early because they arent well conditioned

 

to me i think the contender cuts too many seens to make it look like a really close fight, one or two judges had it 50-44 i think that shows that he dominated every round, i think they have to make it look close for the viewers at home hense some special effects, angles from camera and stuff...

 

Agreed. From what I heard he actually won the fight pretty clearly.

 

I thought they were going to show the whole fight this time around. Still not a fan of the dramatic pause and swelling music before a big punch lands. All fights can be see in their entirity at the espn website.

 

Its cool that you can still get the whole fights. Might do that for the Soliman fight.

 

The show gives a false account of boxing, as so so fighters can go four or five rounds with far superior opponents much like a gym spar.As fights get on the better guy would dominate very easily.
