    Salvador Sanchez vs Danny Lopez I

    Hard to believe that Sanchez was only 21 in this fight, and what a fight.

    Miguel Acosta - Paulus Moses

    Acosta dominated the fight (only gave Moses the 3rd) and showed his versatility boxing on the front foot for this fight, as opposed to his fight against Antillon when he did the opposite. Big right in the 6th dropped Moses, who could have got up, but elected not to do so for whatever reason. "upset of the Century!" according to the Namibian commentator :lol:

    Llewellyn Davies vs Hamed Jamali
    Chris Truman vs Johnny Greaves
    Richard Ghent vs Sid Razak
    Ben Wilkes vs Ryan Clark
    Nasser Al Harbi vs Arek Malek

    Truman impressed me the most out of the 5 prospects in these fights. Nice upper body movement, good combos, works the body well and punches harder than his record would suggest. If he keeps improving, I could see him challenging for domestic titles. Ghent and Al Harbi are two to watch as well.

    How **** was the quality of the vid you saw? Being a huge Acosta fan, I got 27 pages into a Google search until I found the fight recorded on some Namibian guys **** phone.:lol:

    I'd love to find a decent quality vid.

    Devon Alexander v DeMarcus Corley - Bit of a dull affair but Alexander did well as a 20 year old to easily defear Corley. Outworked Corley and landed the cleaner harder shots throughout. Can't wait for Saturday, should be a good one :good

    Gerry Penalosa vs Jhonny Gonzalez
    Daniel Ponce de Leon vs Rey Bautista

    Thought Penalosa was doing better than what the commentary was suggesting. Cracking body shot to stop Gonzalez. De Leon just smashed through Bautista. Didn't let Bautista get into the fight and kept landing the straight left throughout (without having to set it up with the jab).

    :good

    Underrated win that for Barry. He was coming to the end and Daho was one of those guys who could course you problems and was coming off of a big win against his big rival Pat Cowell.
