Zurdo is straight TRASH a BUM and that whole crew at brick house a bunch a clowns, that's why boxing is where it is today....
Zurdo was the third best win in Bivols career lol
Benny run to cw to avoid Bivol and Artur. Lets see if he fights Opetaia.
Bivol ducked the fight vs Benavidez.
Benavidez smashed him in sparring , like he did Ramirez.
To be honest, first impresión Benavidez looked normal.
But, the guy has GREAT SKILLS, underrated defense.
His hand speed is unique in these weights...
And his body is rare, his arms bloqued most of punches, and he has a back bending, blocking punches with his arms
GREAT jab too, and his ofensive is crazy.
Surely the best combos in boxing right now
Andrade, Plant, Morrell, Ramirez, is a very good run, being 3 division champ.
And Bivol ducking his fight last year...
Andrade has similar height and reach, most fans BEFORE the fight were saying Andrade would be a good test.
First fighter to be champion in 168 and 200.
32 pounds, the same poundssñ Crawford jumped of lightweight , 135 to 168.
Benavidez won against a biggee fighter, heavier, and Ramirez is the third best win of Bivol.
Ramirez said Cruiser was his Best weight...
3 division champ, being young champ, and probably a Futuro HoF.
hand speed is great, but FOOT SPEED is more important. Cuban Dave took 4 or 5 rounds
This was Fat Dave's best display of boxing, but his footwork flaws were still there
manny had the faster flurries but Floyd's faster feet slowed manny down
Fat Dave's hand speed is manageable at longer distances or if you push him back
Fat Gilbert lack of jab couldn't hang at range
Thats because when your rival has skills, thats normal, thats the reasin why Madrimov won 5 ronds against Crawford, Nakatani against Inoue.
Yeah, both are important, of fact, David hand speed is rare and much more than hand speed of Bivol, but Bivol has faster feet, thats why the fight is interesting.
But, I see betervieb landing clean on Bivol.
Rumours Say Benavidez was smashing Bivol in sparring,.
Well fought DB. Showed Zurdo whos boss!
Woulda been choice if Jai had been there and stepped in the ring to call Benavidez out cos it seems Dave is too chickenshït to even mention Opetaia.
That would be a great fight!
Opetaia has power but not much more for David
He only fought Breidis, only one quality fighter, honestly...
And the same were saying about cuban Morrell...
a fleet footed fighter who's fast and won't stand in front of him
Nah, the difference is that David hand is speed is rare, too much hand speed
Of fact, David never had problems fighting against flete footed fighters, he always smashed them in sparring and in his career.
His speed and crispu combos make feel uncomfortable most defensive fighters.
I still believe Biviol beats him. Bivol doesn't stand there waiting to get punched. Benavidez moving back to 175 would be a mistake.
Nah, Benavidez bivol is a perfect 50/50 fight, Benavidez speed is underrated, he has more hand speed than Bivol.
And Benavidez is a tricku fighter, his defense is good.
Ramirez always was a slow fighter but Benavidez speed was insane.
Benavidez speed and combos skills are unique
You are a crazy fanboy calm it down and place some bets in future fights. Shakur has a way better resume than Garcia. You said Lopez defense is bad. If thats true what do you call Ryans defense? Ryan has zero defense zero footwork or any other fundamentals needed.
I was one of the fews that said Ryan could beat Haney.
Ryan defense is better than Teo, thats the reason Kambosos destroyed Teo face so bad.
You are a fanboy of Teo.
Teo cant deal with speed, thats the reason he probably lost both fights against Ortiz and Sandor.
If Ryan was able to catch a better defensiva fighters than Teo like Devin is...
And Ryan speed is way better than Teo.
Lopez will stop Ryan. That fight will not even be close.
Yeah, like stop Sandor and Jaimane Ortiz.
No way Teo stop Ryan, and no way in welterweight , Ryan is bigger than him.
I wanna see that 0 defense hands down defense of López against a quick boxer puncher like García
Teofimo is OVERRATED
Kambosos beat Teo too...
But Ryan was beat by ROLANDO
Exactly
Styles makes fights
García kryptonite are fighters with power, sluggers like Romero, or boxer punchers like Tank.
But he do way better against movers without power.
And romero knows Ryan very well, they fought a Lot of times in the gym.
Styles makes fights
But stop with teo being a great fighter
Kambosos beat Teofimo
And he looked like garbage against Martin and Ortiz, súper close fights .
And his defense is garbage...
This fight could be his biggest downfall. If he thinks that he improved and is a different fighter he will be hit reality very soon. But Ryan said something interesting he admitted that he is afraid of fighters with power when calling out Shakur. It makes sense that he does not fancy his chances with Rolly and avoids a rematch. His real problem is that even a good boxer without power will make him miss and pay so much that he will just give up on himself like he did before.
Ryan can K.O Shakur
Shakur avoided bangers too.
Valdez, and Zepeda were not fighters with power.
He fight against De los santos , a boxer puncher with good power was HORRIBLE.
Because De los Santos power was there and he was exchanging and trying to counter shakur.
Ryan style suite better vs slick movers, without power.
Ryan beat Teo, Teo has a TERRIBLE DEFENSE , without hands down, teofimo was OVERRATED
But he Lost against Kambosos a B class fighter, and he barely won against Sandor Martin and Jaimane Ortiz, slick boxers, Teo looked like garbage.
Wins against Taylor that was OVERRATED because his win against Rougauru, ANOTHER OVERRATED fighter too.
And his win against Lima, were he take the win because his athletism, power and be bigger than Loma.that was a small lightweight
Ryan can beat Shakur, and resume of shakur is full of sh.i.t.
Teo and Valdez are his Best wins.
Teo , that was beaten By Kambosos.
And Valdez, that Navarrete easily destroyed two times
Ryan is better than any other champions not named Teofimo (Teo has better resume than García) .
Ryan can beat Teofino easily.
Teofimo is OVERRATED, he Lost against Kambosos that is a B level fighter and barely won against Sandor Martin and Ortiz, in a very very close fights.
Ryan gets put on his ass by them
First Gervonta then Rolando
Yeah, because Styles makes fights
Ryan against boxer punchers or sluggers like rollie, he is in risk , because he has not good chin
He do better things against movers
barrios is the weakest 147 champion in many many years.
he does not beat Shakur in any reality.
Im not saying that based on this fight.
But Ryan destroyed devin and thats the style he look better, movers without power
Ryan doing well tonight is the greatest gift for Silk Smooth Shakur
he now has another highly beatable star opponent
Mario is Taylor Made for García.
But no way is an essy fight for shakur
Shakur had a Lot of problems with De los santos, ANOTHER boxer puncher with great power but much less speed
Shakur looks great against boxers without RANGE
T REX ARMS, like Teo , or Valdez.
Silk Smooth Shakur vs Ryan would be good too
so we can get a reminder that timing beats speed
Ryan has speed and timing , thats the reason he destroyed Devin
That is a better win than teo
Of fact, Ryan has better chances against movers than fights against boxer punchers or sluggers with great power
Ryan has the range, speed and timing and is a dangerous fight for Shakur
Teo has a T rex arms
We need Shakur Stevenson vs Ryan Garcia next
Those style favor Ryan
Ryan fighting stylist and slickers boxers without power is better
Because Ryan is fragile
But with those fighters he can land more and he has the speed, the range and power to K.O devin or shakur
It was a good win for Russell.
It was very close but not robbery.
Russell explosiveness was the key
Andy's jab was neutralized because the explosive style and speed of Russell.
Russell won most rounds landed crispy punches.
No doubt Andy did more damage but Russell won most rounds and touched more andy
I don't think they will give the win for a japanese in usa.
The fight was very competitive
Hiraoka did not felt comfortable with the explosive style of Gary, but he did more damage than Russell.
I don't see anything special in Andy Cruz.
Good bending, nothing more special, he is a good fighter, not an elite one...
ANOTHER Robeisy Ramirez....
Only Lara and Rigo did well in the pros...
Matchroom was the promotor that rule this Match.
Cruz is a fighter of Matchroom...
Cruz? Very OVERRATED...
Good bending, no much more.
Boring style.
0 creativity in the attack ..
No power.... No body work.
ANOTHER robeisy Ramirez...
ANOTHER SUPER OVERRATED CUBAN.
Do You remember that guy?
Robeisy Ramirez??
They are not humble and they have like 15 years showing that the amateur cubana style DONT MEAN anything in the PRO WORLD.
Except Rigo and Lara, all the other cubana are B class fighters and have mediocre career.
They think they will rule the boxing WORLD.
Do You look Andy arriving to the forum?
Like he was a Rockstar...
Man, his Best win is against tomatoe can...
Boxing?
Good defense, good bending,
Andy Cruz is a normal pro boxer, he is a B class fighters, don't a súper Star.
His ofensive is very poor, no power, no body work, his right hand is mediocre.
His Best skills sre the jab and bending.
His style is boring too, very conservative.
0 creativity in the attack
Deserved L
Honestly, was like Comical Ali denying the American Tanks were coming into Baghdad.
The pattern of the fight always seemed more likely that Smith would find that killshot than Matias.
Matias was gonna have to outlast Smith there and hope he gassed. Which with that kind of pressure was not out of the question.
As early as round 2 we had the assessment that Matias had for more power and strength. Even as Smith was tying him up and walking Matias across the ring.
off the top of my head I can't think of a worse called fight.
It was a shame too because if you called that like you see it. It was Gatti/Wardesque. They did the promotion a huge disservice.
Exactly, the chance of Matías was Smith stamina gassed, but Smith was landing bombs since round 1, so I looked Matías felt the power and was hurt with those shots.
Smith is a strong guy.
The plan was attack and being ofensive, they work the K.O, and showed no respect for Matías pressure and power.
Smith has heavy hands.
I think his style is a mix of Frampton and Mikey García.
Smith is gonna be a hard fight for anyone.
He can box and move and pick shots from a distance if you stand off him..
Now we know he can have a real dog fight too and is tough. He can take a shot and he can crack.
That's what happens when you train a kid to be a well rounded fighter.
Exactly, he is a very dangerous fighter, he lands bombs pretty well, i know he could K.O Matías.
Of fact, Matías is Taylormade for Smith, too Open and 0 defense.
Smith was hurting Matías since the first round
Don't know what the commentators were seeing in this short fight, Matias was winning the rounds.
But it was increasingly obvious he was going to lose down the stretch.
His body language was betraying him big time... Yet they were adamant he was absolutely dominating.
Smith was winning the fight, he won most of.the rounds
Co-comms still saying through tears that Matias forced to fight his fight.
Probably how yanks felt watching Sky Sports. I guess.
Always felt like Smith was likely to knock him out to me. He can punch and we could see he was hitting him absolutely clean.
Exactly.
Smith was moving Matías with his bombs since round 1.
Matías face is always the same but i looked him felt the power and Smith was landing bombs and Matías looked uncomfortable.
I'd say the comms influenced you.
They were talking about Smith like he was a bum.
He's getting punished they said. At the same time Matias was getting his eyes closed himself. Was fighting square on and was liable to get f.ucked up himself.
Smith is a very good boxer puncher, he is strong and has good skills, and heavy hands
He has brutal K.Os wins.
Today he showed heart and chin, determination.
Not sure why the commentators thought that Smith BY NECESSITY couldn't take on Matias at his own game. Very happy with this one, being a Sheffield man - bring on Adam Azim (on second thoughts, make him fookin sweat)
Smith is a very good fighter.
He has heavy hands, I don't how people see this fight.
But Smith has a great K.Os.wins, with brutal shots.
I saw Smith the first time.against José Zepeda, he was old but he is a tough guy and Smith destroyed him with a brutal body shot. I was a fan of Zepeda because he was from my city, but i like what i see in Smith.
Smith is a strong guy. You need super fast hands and feet, any other guys without a Lot of skills Will have much troubles against him. He lands bombs, good left hand and good body work.
Matías looked bad since first round he felt the power, Smith was moving him with bombs.
And Smith has skills and good counter skills.
So, he can land bombs...
Brutal K.O.
Matías was talking a Lot, Smith was humble, before and after the win.
