Comments Thread For: Zhakiyanov Overcomes Knockdowns, Upsets Rau'shee Warren

[anonymous2.0]

Provodnikov and Warren are the only two boxers I know to knock down their opponent twice in the opening round and lose the fight

Lesson learned: never assume you've won the fight because of knockdowns and get lazy

Where is the fool who called this guy a Euro-bum and said Warren would have an easy time?

Warren has skills but they seem to be rushing him to the big time. I imagine any other manager would be thinking he needs to step back a bit and develop his skills as a pro before going full tilt as he has. They learn the hard way as history repeats itself... again

They sure rushed him against a guy who hasn't fought since 2015.

I was referring to his career not his opponent. Obviously now, two career losses, it is not what his management hoped for. They expected big things... it is not what they got.

Waking up and seeing this thread makes me tear up im that happy.

Another highly touted slick brotha gets widely decisioned after getting lazy.

Gets blamed on the judges doe.

Jamie mcdonnell schools both!! Euro bums FTW

Ehh, he had a decent pro trajectory in my opinion, considering his deep amateur background. Three years from debut to world title shot seems about right for an experienced boxer like him in the smaller weights where they peak sooner, and he had four ten rounders before his first twelve rounder (though only two went the distance). However, just like in the amateurs, Warren is good enough to hang at world level but not good enough to pull ahead of the crowd. It is what it is, not every boxer can be a great

You can't even beat the guy in ur hometown IMO Hazard jr is an ineptjudge and should be in Vegas with the rest of them... I hope payano gets another shot at the belt he's the best of the 3...

What is it with American fighters and their illegal tactics??????????

Warren was constantly sticking his arm outright and the corrupt ref did nothing.

Every time his opponent got close, he grabbed hold of him and clinched without the ref saying a god damn word. In-fact, the ref was warning the opponent all the time. Such bull**** going on over there all the time. Corrupt mother****ers.

And that 3rd disgusting score-card. Horrible.
