If HBO thought out a worst case scenerio for the start of their BAD telecast then this had to be it. The crowd is booing loudly, Ive never seen this many slips or "no knockdowns," and The play by play man, I forget his name is not very good.
This is a good example of just styles making fights. 2 slick fighters and neither are willing to stand and trade blows. Couple that with Freitas inability to fight in the inside it seems and Raheems lunges and you've got....this mess.
On the plus side, the fact that the commentators shut up much more now it's a much better telecast.
Raheem is being the aggressor in this fight. One of the reasons coupled with the fact that he's landing the better shots....that I think he has this in the bag unless Freitas knocks him out this round.

Thats what I think. The styles are really bad for eachother. Niether fighter really looks good. Raheem deserves a win and I doubt he gets it. I say its gonna be a draw or a win for Freitas.
