    Agreed, both fights were exciting no doubt.

    Bika cannot hurt Andrade, likely cannot hold him off either and has shown vulnerability to Codrington's power. I think Andrade would get him early.

    WHAT A FIGHT!!!!! TWO GUYS WITH HEART AND GUTS LEAVING IT ALL IN THE RING! JUST AMAZING!!!

    Bika was on ***** street the whole first rd! Lucky for me Bika held for dear life for 2 mins or my bet would have been lost! The rest of the fight was Bika walking through Jaidon' hammer-like hooks luckily and covering up and getting pounded.

    Experience definitely served Bika well. Jaidon, really impressed with your stamina and power. You will be back!

    It's certainly possible as Jaidon dropped him early and Andrade has more power. It wouldn't look pretty thats for sure.

    Do you think Bika is on the shortlist for potential opponents for Kessler when he decides to return to the ring?

    I'd think that Kessler would like that IBF belt that Bute has to be honest, Bute would essentially be a tune up anyway, as Kessler's 2-3 levels over him.

    You know what else would be a good fight for a rebounding Kessler?

    Vitali Tsypko, solid boxer, a level below Kessler, will be schooled by Kessler but will make Kessler work for it.

    I think Bika would just be 'too easy' for Kessler. They'll go for something better, considering the level that he operates on. We have to remember that Kessler ate fighters better than Bika like they were all C- levels that he was whipping up on.

    I think Tyspko would be the right choice and Vitali fights anybody.

    I'll go with you on Calzaghe-Kessler, but Hopkins-Wright??? :huh

    However good Calzaghe-Kessler was in terms of skill - and it was about as good as it gets in this sport, imo - it still can't match this fight in terms of EXCITEMENT.

    I know what you are saying, its why I'm in the small minority that actually wants Hopkins - Calzaghe to be made.

    But Hopkins - Wright was easily the ugliest and worst "big" fight this year. There wasn't even much skill involved. Hops just grappled long enough to make Wink's chunky ass remember every single Twinkie and Krispie Kream he shouldn't have eaten.

    Hopkins totally owned Wright's jab. He actually thew more jabs than WW.
    donuts had nothing to do with it. It was masterful

    I was thinking the same thing. I'm gonna watch it again to see if it beats Vasquez-Marquez 2. But definitely top 3 for me this year.

    That's Number 2, imo. Ding's come from behind KO against Noodo is another one. But Bika-Codrington beats both of those for sustained action - in fact, in terms of constant excitement, it's right up there with the best in history, imo.:yep
