valuev deserved close decision win

77Ritchie7717y ago

i dont care how bad he is (he sucks beyond belief) hes a total farce, no skill or technique but.... HOLYFIELD SHUT IT THE **** DOWN AFTER ROUND 5!!!! and his corner told him to do it.... after round 5 i thought holyfield won 3 clearly and 2 were close. after that holyfield did not win one clear round. there is no way you can point out 7 rounds in this fight where holyfield did enough to WIN the rounds. running around and showing boxing stances doesnt win fights although i wish it did today. valuev sucks holyfield sucks holyfield shut it down 2 rounds too early agree?

Comments (7)

I agree with the OP Holyfield got dominated, u cant win a fight by running But you can win it by standing still and not punching at all right? :haha:

17y ago

that scoring was a disgrace and an embarrassment to the sport. valuev is a joke and a pathetic champion.

17y ago

Neither fighter fought much like a heavyweight champion today. Wlad would dominate Valuev. True. Who did you have winning this fight Tunney, scores?

17y ago

there is no way you can point out 7 rounds in this fight where holyfield did enough to WIN the rounds. running around and showing boxing stances doesnt win fights You neglect to mention that Valuev was doing even less than that. Hell, he was doing **** all. He just barely moved at all, barely threw at all, had a look on his face like he didn't give a shit and his punch output proved that he didn't. Punch stats, if there are any(did they even bother with compubox on this one?), will show that Holyfield landed more and probably threw more as well. But whatever, a pox on both their houses. Dreadful fight. And at least we won't be seeing the Holyfield-Klitschko unification match now.

17y ago

lol please. valuevs corner knew he had lost. they told him to go and knock holy out in the 12th.

17y ago

it also doesnt help holyfields case when it looks like hes punching a brick wall his punches has zero effect.... sorry to disappoint everybody who wanted holyifled to win.. i did too but he didnt win
