What's even more frustrating is that this Merhy guy seemed to have fast hands and looked like he could tag Anderson if he wanted to. I really wanted to see what would happen if Anderson got truly chin-checked. I was hoping he would sell out in the later rounds but he chose a UD loss rather than go for glory and bigger $$$ in the future.Comment

Was this fight a tank job? OR is Anderson really that lackluster?
Jared Anderson tried for 10 rounds to crack the shell of Ryad Merhy. Anderson was 128 of 662, 19% in total punches compared to 34 of 144, 24% for Merhy. The 144 punches thrown for Mehry is the 3rd fewest in 10 round fights in CompuBox history. It seems Merhy achieved his goal of not getting knocked out. Scores were 100-90 twice and somehow a judge gave a round to Merhy for a 99-91 score.Comment

Jared fought to his opposition. But that doesn't bold well vs top heavyweights. He needed to not just carry the fight but put on a clinic and knock him out. Maybe he was flustered because Merhy took his punches and Jared was shocked KO #16 wasn't going to happened. Playing it safe. Not taking risks.Comment

Jfc. Obviously the winner of the fight is typically gonna feel the bulk of the bad look fan takes in these situations like Jared is here, but no promoter should be calling Ryad anytime soon after his non effort last night.Comment
