Comments Thread For: Ricky Burns/Leeds Early Results: Brian Rose Wins

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

WBO #15 light middleweight Brian Rose (26-2-1, 8 KOs) came back to the ring for the first time since his deceiving effort in a title shot against Demetrius Andrade this June and completely annihilated Argentinean journeyman Ignacio Lucero Fraga (11-8-3, 5 KOs) in the first round.

Fraga was down three times - each time after another right hand by Rose, but some of them weren't particularly clean, landing also at the back of the Argentinean's head. However, Rose was much better than his opponent as the referee saw enough and waved it off at 2:58 after the third knockdown.

Cotto vs clottey style

[PrinceNaz88]

Yeah, Nurse has got nothing on his legs..

He will get flattened by anyone half decent who can ****.

How was Rose's effort against Andrade deceiving? Andrade pretty clearly looked the much superior fighter and I don't know what sort of answer Rose was hiding that would make that effort deceiving.

Lol true. Fair play for Rose's post fight interview though

I guess he has to say that it wasn't him that night or whatever because there should be some domestic or European options for him and Andrade is a pretty unique specimen at 154 so he should never be confronted with that exact same problem again.

Nurse has no chin what so ever. And he's had 30 fights, this is what you get for fighting bums.

I thought he said he was just in with a better man in Andrade?

I was only half listening tbf.

Nurse Ryan turned out to be a decent fight

[knockoutkid]

is this supposed to be another christmas cracker card cause theyre all tune ups, and the commonwealth title fight is mediocre, neither are going to go anywhere so whats the point. Too many fighters not enough quality is the problem.

I wasn't watching at that point in fact I didn't even know Rose was fighting today I was going off what was in print with that. That certainly would be a deceiving performance though if he said that.

Decent little scrap for sure and I was watching that although not that close.
