Povetkinv v Wawrzyk, Ledebev vs Jones RBR & discussion

[dan_cov]

The swelling was all across the side of his head/temple too and he was fighting like that for 5-6 rounds.

Some will no doubt call him a quitter and make Cotto remarks but man my hat goes off to Lebedev he showed some serious heart to fight through that.

FOTY!

[Light_Speed]

WTF!? YOu serious?

How long did he fight like THAT?

For about 6 rounds.

That was the FOTY for me, don't think it will be topped either.

Jesus... cant wait til its uploaded... reading about it and not seeing it is killing me.

This was really Lebedevs first real loss. He got robbed against Huck, but there was no robbery here. Jones pulled it off.

His eye was completely closed by about the 3rd and the swelling started getting horrific by the 5th or 6th round. In most places the fight would have been stopped by the 5th or 6th.

The right eye was totally shut since round 2 I believe, the left since 9 I think

The man deserves a medal for that. My god that is some Carmen Basilio Jake Lamotta stuff right there.

From the sounds of it, his corner didnt stop the fight because he was still winning the fight, and could get out of there with a victory, probably a lot harder to throw in the towel when you're winning as opposed to losing with no way of winning.
