Comments Thread For: Galal Yafai bullies Sunny Edwards into one-sided stoppage defeat

[Corelone]

Sunny got the pity vote out of me because of the war he gave Bam. Normally a lack of power cools my backing, but I felt bad for him. Yafai looked great, but I need to see more. Sunny has practice taking a bad beating.

Most of these posts are about Edwards being bad, but I think we should also point out how focused and prepared Yafai was. Great, great performance. Was Edwards bad? Yes. But Yafai did what good fighters are supposed to do when they have a fighter in reverse- He dominated and finished him. He has earned a bigger, more lucrative fight.

Excellent post.

Is it a real upset?

Yafai is olympic gold medalist that was genuinely one of the best amateurs in the world and looks physically superior to Edwards.

Well when you put it that way..............

I incorrectly thought Sunny would be too crafty for Yafai at this stage of their careers. When Sunny told his corner that he didn't want to be there, the only question left was how long it was going to take for the stoppage to occur.

Edwards looked like spent fighter and Yafai impressed me with his power and athleticism.

Sunny got a lot out of what he is............what 23 fights four K O wins sometimes the record does help explain the fighter.

Absolutely. He couldn't break an egg but, at his best, I enjoyed him ply his skills using angles, timing and command of distance to outbox his opponents. He was outgunned by Bam but he went out on his shield in a gutsy performance. It was kind of sad to watch that empty performance last night.

Of course we will

Hes 28. He can say he is retiring but he'll do a U turn on that once he needs some dough.

Actually I think he will be a boxing commentator , he seems to be quite good at it
