Riakporhe was out of gas early in that fight which was strange. I’d like to see a unification fight for Billam-Smith against someone not named Opetaia.
Missed the main event as I was driving home after getting pissed drunk. Disappointed to hear it was such a bad fight and that Riakporhe put in such a bad performance. Cong**** to CBS though, who is a fun fighter, give him a homecoming defense in Bournemouth against Massey in what would be a ****er of a fight. Bring the Midnight Train back in a winnable fight against a domestic guy like Zorro or Watkins and then elevate him back to Euro level. Geared up for the Tank and Matias cards now, let's rock! :boxing:
Drunk drivers kill people. Idiot.

Congrats to CBS though, who is a fun fighter, give him a homecoming defense in Bournemouth against Massey in what would be a banger of a fight.

I think we need to give Riakporhe a little more grace.
He was completely gassed from the end of round one.
Either overtrained or as someone else suggested - weight drained. When he stepped on the gas, there was nothing.
Premier boxing champions YT channel, it’s posted in the Tank-Martin thread
Thanks. Weird, I couldn't find it from the main PBC YT channel under "live" options.
Last round of a championship, maybe his only ever shot, what he has been building towards his whole career. And he’s still clinching, not throwing punches.
i’m still in disbelief, i had my reservations about him at the top level but this just compounded those thoughts.
he will massively rue this performance when he watches it back
Great performance from CBS, but my word Riak was disastrous tonight. That was such a poor effort for someone chasing a world title in their city with the ‘home’ advantage.

Riak was headbutting more than he was punching and he was holding like an octopus from the 2nd round on. With all his illegal tactics he still got his azz whooped.
