Comments Thread For: Leigh Wood Shocks Xu Can, Stops Him in Twelfth For WBA Title

[BigZ44]

I just nicked it to Xu again, but every round where it looks like he's gonna run away with it, he lets Wood come back and win a significant portion of the round. 7-3 Wood

Guys like Kubo and Cermeno have competed at world level, they’re definitely better than domestic level guys like Doyle, Joyce, Mould IMO.

Wood is boxing well here though. I’ll admit my prediction on this fight was well off.

I mean, Kubo has never been competitive at that level though, wouldn't surprise me at all if he'd lose to all 3 of those guys and Cermeno was well past it. Wood may only have wins at British level, but I think it's been pretty clear from watching him in the past that he's at least Euro level and he's proving tonight that he's pretty good

6-3 Wood he's just too black and slick for can

9th was close, just edged it to Xu, 7-2 Wood

I wouldn’t say many of Xu’s opponents have been much better than decent domestic level Uk fighters. Maybe one or two but even one of those could/should’ve been a loss.

he’s not that good at all, he just has some regular WBA title, whatever that’s worth these days. I still expected him to probably win this one but not with any ease.

he’s arguably losing this

Maybe I’m overrating him slightly tbf.

I’ve kind of lost track of my scorecard but Wood is definitely in front for me.

He’s beat considerably better guys than Wood though. He’s much more competitive than I thought he would be thus far but Xu is beginning to take over now.

Not gonna lie I can’t wait to see boxercise Ben take an L. I can’t stand the guy.

I have only given Can 2 rounds. Another round for Wood and the new ...

Not sure he has in reality, Rojas beat Xu, I don't care what the cards said. Cermeno, Kubo and Robles his best wins? Honestly that's not much different from Doyle, Joyce and Mould. Wood's wins might be better actually

5-3 Wood cans going to have to do something drastic to get back into this now

He got dominated there

7-1 Wood, he's really taken control of this fight now and was even backing Xu up that round
