    Was TBud Israil A Boring To Fight To You?

    I see a lotta chumps who are against the idea of an immediate rematch

    GREAT fighters have an ego to prove that they’re the best.

    immediate rematch and winning would remove all doubt that you’re better than the opponent

    No it was a boxing chess match, there was lots of tactics being tried and countered, I like high level boxing in my eye its easy to come out swinging for the fences Id rather the sweet science at the top level.

      I thought it was a great match too

      as I did the Floyd-Oscar fight

      I’ll take high level technical fight over a low level action packed brawling bout

        I liked it a lot but I'd be lying if I said I enjoyed it more than watching Bakole's impression of Godzilla strolling through Tokyo

          It was fun to watch first time around due to the power each man possess and they both were landing clean crisp punches throughout. The momentum never got away from either man for long.

            I definitely agree , a good chess match is just that but this was a pretend chess match
            One guy came to survive , as his trainer has stated , they would of been happy with a draw lol
            Not enough punches but mucho feints that never lead to anything chess

                  Anyone who watched it was hoping it would open up more and that’s the truth. Im not saying it didn’t have its merits but it was cautious throughout and very slow at the start. Tough tactical fight. Close. Nobody got too hurt at any point. It wasn’t the showcase Bud wanted. Bud did not look big or powerful at 154lbs at least vs Madrimov. It made boxing look lame for thinking Bud can go up another 14lbs in his next fight vs Nelo. Big fan of Bud. He will still make good money. Rematch is fine if it happens soon.

                    Thats one of the downsides of high level boxing nobody wants to be the cow that sticks his head outside the cattle truck in case it hits the side of a bridge.

                    This fight was full of tension all the way its a fine line between whether to commit or not, they were both wanting to land something big before letting loose and often that shot never comes, I enjoyed it because I seen a lot of subtle things I enjoy in high level boxing, as opposed to a high level fight like say of the top of my head ODH vs Quartey which had precision and destruction the whole way.
