    The Score in Rahman-Barrett Fight

    Basically this is how it went.

    Barrett utilizing his jab and throwing combinations and follows through with a nice hook but for the most part mainly throwing combinations of mainly jabs.

    Rahman keeps walking forward and lands a heavy shot every now and then.

    Imagine that for 12 rounds and you have the fight, neither fighter deserves the credit and seriously I was thinking it was going to come out a draw. But I had it for Barrett but both fighters looked like garbage. Typical Rahman and Barrett showed up.
    I was actually SHOCKED by the two scores 118-112. It looks like DK bought them...

    I expected to see a draw.

        There is no way that Barrett won that fight. I was surprised to hear 116-112.

          That's fine. Maybe I was just too much biased in favor of Barrett.

            I didn't see the fight, but from what I've read, Rahman didn't put in a championship performance. Therefore, Rahman has still not displayed what it takes to be considered a champion. All he's ever done is land one good punch against Lewis.

            Unfortunately, we still have to listen to all that crap that comes out of Rahman's mouth until he fights Vitali and either proves himself or Vitali makes him go away once and for all.

              Rahman showed why he could bother Vitali, but Barrett rocked him twice, which raises questions about if Hasim will give himself a chance to get to Vitali and try to back him up, or if he will get KO'd by a guy that hits harder than Two Gunz.

                Don't forget that Barrett also floored Mesi and sent Owen Beck FLYING. Dude has newfound power.

                  SACKING not FLYING

                  Monte has power in late rounds only.

                    I think those same uppercut combinations that Klitschko landed on Williams would very easily land on Rahman....After tonights performance and hearing all of the trash talking by Rahman and even knowing he was in decent shape and put on a piss poor performance like tonight says a lot about Rahman.

                    His most notable anything is a win against Lewis...That is it.
