Comments Thread For: Easter Fends Off Shafikov, Wins Unanimous Decision to Keep Title

[The Comic DON]

7-5 Denis

Easter: 1,3,7,8

Shafikov:2,4,5,6,9,10,11,12

Outside of a few rounds, Shafikov was the ring general. He forced Easter to fight on the inside and got the better of him landing much harder shots.

Easter did well when he was able to box from the outside but couldn't keep Shafikov off him for the most part. On the inside, he mostly landed punches of very little consequences.

I pretty much expect Easter to get the decision however because "tuh politics" of boxing.

I've been saying all week this fight would be tough as hell and Easter was gonna be tested. Cong**** to him for coming thru it with a W (most likely)

Hell of a fight! I have Easter up by not by much. Not mad at draw or Shaf win

One thing is sure, Easter isn't afraid of brawling, he could learn some head movement because he has some good defense to the body, i was surprised at his lack of dominance with the lead foot over the southpaw but I believe he won, he displayed great inside fighting and that's even more impressive for a guy his size.
Anyway, he is just getting better and i just can't imagine what Emmanuel Steward would have done with him, Hearns at ringside is probably thinking the same.
I was on the Easter hype since he was an amateur and I'm still there.

Judges taking awhile on the cards? Might be closer than I had it.

Taking a while for these scorecards isn't it??

I kinda expect more out of a nearly 6ft tall LW, but he did land the harder punches to win. Didn't really see Easter hurt in there.

(Coming up next "The Mack, then Richard Pryor "Live on the Sunset strip followed by "Car Wash")

I think one card will mirror your score with the other two cards going to Easter Jr..
