The fight is about to start in a few minutes and I'll do a little RBR here. The fight is shown on german ZDF who has just showed the weigh-in. It was r-rated :lol1::lol1:
For those of you who havent seen the weigh-in and Garays private parts can check it out here:

Diaconu is the one who got injured the first time they were supposed to fight. That and Dicanou got injured again so who knows if that fight would have come up. He wanted to fight Tarver and got tired of waiting around.
That's not a duck.
Dawson was ordered to face Diaconu but declined and got stripped of his title. Instead Dawson fought Tarver. Economics was obviously the motive but by NSB rule for sure that was the most blatant of ducks you'll ever see.

Didn't they want to have that fight in Romania?
I just don't see who Garay is gonna fight. Some no-name euro guy probably.
I doubt he'd get the big names to show interest.
Yeah and Dawson didn't want to fight there. That and Showtime finally put their foot down because they wanted to see Dawson Tarver and weren't gonna pay for it afterwards. Dawson did the right thing.
No point in fighting Erdei after 2 losses. I doubt he can get Dawson. Best case must be Diaconu who might be tempted the reward being the unified champion and thereby perhaps pave the way to a fight with Dawson, who shamelessly ducked him earlier.

Ah, Panama. Home sweet home. Home of the WBA and three champs.
I guess the Garay guy was pissed god cursed him with a small weiner so he took his rage out on the criminal Braehmer.
I don't know what would be next for him to be honest. Maybe Diaconu, cuz Dawson and Erdei won't fight him.

yeah the panamian judges suck because they are wba judges
i remember one panamanian judge who gave mijares-munoz to munoz
At least he had the correct winner but his marks was way off IMO. Not many rounds were so close that I could have scored them for the other guy I must say. I think the best I could have scored for Brähmer is 5 rounds which might have made it 115-113
118-110, 117-112, 116-115 all for Garay.
How the heck one judge had it close I will never understand.
thanks very much Bat. Great to see your scoring was spot on.
12: Brahmer needs a lucky punch now. Brahmer lands a few big ones!! Brahmer is opening up and gives his all. Garay comes back as B tires and lands a volley of shots. Big uppercut by Brahmer! Garay again comes back with a combo. I'll be nice and give this round to B.
9-3 or 117-111
11: Quick hard combos are landing in the face of Brahmer who's puffy. I'm quite impressed with the handspeed of Garay I must say. He lacks in the power department though.
9-2
10: Again it's mostly hooks being thrown. B doesnt have the defensive skills necessary at this level. He holds his head still after he's hit and Garay can land succesions of headshots to follow up.
8-2
lol - sounds like its a good fight to watch.
thanks Bat. do you think the judges can rob Garay once again in Germany?
probably a bit harder this time, as he is the title-holder in this fight.
No. Garay will win.

8-2
9: The fighters are tired now and the punches are not as hard as in the beginning.B takes a lot again but comes back witha hard left. I cannot see Brahmer winning this fight as he is way behind on points and doesn't have the power to hurt the argentinian.
7-2
8: Again the fighting is on the inside as they stand like 2 rams flailing away. B takes to many punches I think which is bad for him. But he takes them well.
6-2
6: G works the body but there doesnt appear to be the same zap on his punches as earlier. A lot of infighting and B scores witha big hook but gets punished with a 3-4 punch combo that lands! Hard uppercut from B lands. Very good fight :boxing:
4-2
