    It's a good point. Guess it suits the tournament better for Tahiti to advance, Kashinsky is far more dangerous.

    lol Maybe. It's odd why they opted for Fayfer when you have the likes of Kashinsky, Papin, and Egorov all of whom are Russian and better than him, IMO. To be fair Papin and Egorov haven't had that many fights so it was probably too early for them.

    Fayfer isn't that good. He was a good amateur but as a pro he looks average. Another Paddy Barnes. Simply not ready to fight on a strong pro level.

    I believe you, but this really was a mismatch today. :sisi1

    It didn't seem like a battle of hard-hitting prospects so much as one being fed a tomato can.

    Oh I completely agree with you after that **** lol. I think that the domestic scene in Argentina is so **** at the higher weights that I was fooled by him being able to string together a few nice performances

    Yeah from what I've seen the latter is by far the better Russian cruiser.

    I watched one of his videos he posted on his YT channel the day after the Catterall fight and it was pretty embarrassing. Even many of his own fans were giving him plenty of stick for his performance and the things he was saying in the video.

    I have this from noon on, Riston card and Crawford's card later tonight all on demand whenever I want to watch. What I have to watch as it happens is the Bakole vs Hunter card, but the **** don't even start for another 2 hours.

    It's weird. The Argie domestic scene is really a Twilight zone with the inconsistency, all up & down the weight classes ladder. You can have a guy that is a respectable world title challenger, acquitting himself well in defeat to a strong champion, then he comes home and gets kayoed by a guy with a losing record, who then goes on to expose a few prospects, who then gets KTFO himself by an unbeaten green feather-fist with a padded record, who then loses his next five getting dragged into brawls with slow plodding journeymen who punch slightly harder than him...and then out of nowhere he'll upset someone for a FAB title and then school an ex-world champ. :nusenuse:

    Exact same sentiments lol. Those Channel 5 fights will probably be available on YouTube soon after their over though should you have to miss it for some unforeseen situation lol. British fans are pretty good about that lol.

    When the hell is Shishkin vs. Mohammedi going to start? Literally the only reason I'm tuning into this card. (although I'm mildly curious about Tete vs. Aloyan too)
