Comments Thread For: Luis Nery Drops, Stops Azat Hovhannisyan in Eleven Round War

As much as Azat was beaten up, you always felt he could throw "the one" and win this ... Still... Not a Bad Stoppage ...

[Kannabis Kid]

Good action fight from both fighters I knew if Nery came in shape he could do some damage, he tired a bit but ultimately he was too accurate and the better puncher of the two. Azat has some iron will man that guy even after being hurt was throwing non stop punches in the next round trying to win much respect he went out on his shield and it was a good stoppage.

Exciting fight! Good stuff. Both guys took a lot of damage tonight.

Those two guys just shorted their careers with that much punishment. They will never be the same after that.

First Woods-Lara and then Nery vs Hovannisiyan.....great wars, specially the latter. Great to see real, entertaining fights between Brits, Latinos and Eastern Europeans ( Armenian in this case ). None of that coward saying of "slick" boxing of the "hit and not get hit" excuse of boxers who just pot shot, hug and run the entire fight.

Would you rather see a hug fest?

Where did I say I would rather see a hug fest? I pointed out that they both took serious damage; those are the facts. Nothing wrong with blocking punches with something other than their faces.

Well said.

Great prize fighting all around.

Nery was not that hurt...

Don't kid yourself. He and Az battered each other relentlessly for 11 rounds.
