I cant believe there isnt already a thread about this fight. Did anybody else see it? It came on after FNF last night, on showtime... :confused: Anybody??
Good fight. Powell did very well. He showed good conditioning and excellent technique.
Hey Nautilus :) Glad to see youre back again. I think so too, and also agree with some of the other opinions about him needing to step it up a bit. Same thing I said about McGirt, Jr. fighting last night...it's time to get in with a little tougher opposition already! I think both look ready for that advancement.

I was sitting ringside at the fight. Powell really seemed to tire in the last two rounds. Powell's brother won by TKO in his pro debut on the undercard. Steve Farhood is a really nice guy. He was chatting with fans throughout the evening.
Good for you!! theres nothing quite like watching live boxing....and the atmosphere is amazing. :)
i'm a fan of Powell but i think it's time for him to step up, he's a good prospect, he came out of Gleason's gym in NYC. he's got mad skillz, but if he can't use them on a top 10 guy he'll never be champ

Powell looked good against a fighter he's supposed to look good with. I think it's time to step it up a little more. It's obvious he can beat up those kinds of fighters now so it's time for a little more competitive opponent.
Berto looked good as well.
I saw it, it was a decent fight, Powell pretty much dominated, I had him winning every round. Frazier hung tuff, espeically with a broken nose but he was way overmatched.
This is the best I've seen Powell look, good defense, good counters, good jab. IMO he is now a top 15 contendor at 154.
I agree with all of this. Good assessment. Good showing from Shobox once again, too bad their next show isn't until March.
Yeah it was a pretty good fight...I would have enjoyed it more and gotten much more out of it if I hadnt been so frustrated and tired from watching koba run all night long on FNF. I was almost 'over it' by the time that was all over and showtimes came on :confused:
Powell looks solid and I think he'll go a long way in the div. Time will tell I guess.
