    Serge, I think you're failing to mention the nuclear power-up Ishida was currently under the influence of, with the fight taking place a short period of time after Japan's cataclysmic tsunami and ensuing nuclear disaster.

    You might as well give Mario a ****in' fire-cap power-up, Ishida was wired that night.

    Excellent post.

    Also, that 4/5 fights in 3 months leading up to the Ishiida fight was ridiculously poor mgmt.

    An elite level athlete needs time to heal between camps.
    He wasn't exactly fighting club fights for a few hundred bucks.
    He was doing 14 hr/day training with 8 rds hard sparring 4X/wk.

    Insanity

    Kirkland could land a dozen before Lemmy's first.
    Similar power but Lemmy can take as good as he can give.
    His problems have generally been taking way more than giving. LOLOL

    Kirkland looked good in the old days, but before long he was exposed. I guess he quit training..................
