    Ford/Kohlmatov

    That was a fun fight. Looked like Kholmatov was winning by 1 or 2 then that last round was wild.

      The only reason I tuned in was because I had a few bucks on Ford.

      Glad I did. It's been a long time since I saw a fight I knew nothing about be this good. Reminded me of being a kid watching boxing for the first time.

          I've been missing a lot of fights lately and didn't know much about Kholmatov but I'm glad I tuned in. It was a very entertaining back-and-forth fight with an emotional ending for both men. I picked Ford by close decision assuming Kholmatov lacked experience and had just been bludgeoning inferior opposition and not going many rounds. He had only gone 12 once and 8 another time. I'd like to watch him fight again after he recovers though.

            Hi Tim Bradley

            Ford won 2 rounds max. it was a entertaining fight, but also a one sided fight. Kholmatov was winning 9-2 and then the referee prematurely ended the fight with about 10 seconds to go when he should have gave him a standing count. The Commentary was one of the worst, more biased, ridiculous commentary I've ever heard, it was actual pure comedy some of the lies Bradley and the other guys were saying.

              2 rounds? That doesn't seem right considering how close the fight was. Although if Otabek would had gone the distance and received the knock down deduction, he could had still won.

              This could be a potential fight of the year, though it is too early to tell.
