    Comments Thread For: Abraham Nova Tested, Decisions a Very Tricky Avery Sparrow

    For about five rounds, Abraham Super' Nova struggled to figure out a way to preserve his unbeaten record. A strong second surge managed to do the trick, as he earned a 10-round unanimous decision over Avery Sparrow in their ESPN-televised preliminary contest Thursday evening at MGM Grand Conference Center in Las Vegas.

    I dunno, this is where punch stats can be misleading. Nova landed harder shots and apparently landed more. When I tallied my card I had it 5 rounds each and a draw.

    Was impressed with Sparrow. Doesn't have alot of power but he's slick. Nova just didn't seem to pull the trigger enough.

      Pretty sure all of Nova’s punches came inside of a few later rounds. That being said, I still think the compubox guys got it wrong.

        I came into the fight rooting for Nova, but I legitimately had Sparrow edging it out. He was deceptively slick. Good fight, he would have tested Ryan Garcia had the fight gone through

          Definitely a fun fight.

          Sorry, but this fight is 96-94 in favor Abraham Nova, but he need to fix a good deal of flaws. I am glad Abraham Nova win a tough difficult fight and took valuable experience in his bag. I am very impress with Avery Sparrow, don't count him off yet.

            96-94 is fine by me. I scored rounds and wasn't sure of the tally until the end. Turns out I had it a draw but I could definitely see a few rounds that could have swung the other way. The 99-91 card turned in by one of the judges was inexplicable however, that just tells me you are looking to give any round to the house fighter that you can. Shameful.

              Yup
              Gotta agree with you
              Sparrow was very impressive
              Had it gone the other way , I wouldn’t have complained
              Nova seems to really have trouble getting going

                I personally thought Sparrow won the fight or at worst a draw. Nova really didnt do much more than keep from being jabbed to death up until about round 7

                  I thought he came on strong towards the end but then again that won’t happen often , result that is
                  Like I said before , draw or even a loss , I wouldn’t have anything to say

                    Yeah something odd about that punch count..

                    Imagine if this wasn't a short notice thing for Sparrow? Anyways, may not have done a big diff since he seems to have made bad judgment calls when he was about to hit the big time!

                    Like Andre said, a loss can affect you for a tong time and in many different ways (pay scale, if you get another opportunity etc..)
