So I saw José Zepeda vs Ivan Baranchyk. And uh...

[Combat Talk Radio]

Can’t win in Boxing haha but I can understand why the thread starter said it can’t be compared to other FOTY fights.

It was a good fight and majority of fans missed it because it was on ESPN+ smh

It's just, you got two guys swinging for the fences. That's it.

That's NOT what Castillo/Corrales was.
That's NOT what Gatti/Ward was (at least not at first).

That's not even what Choco/Rungvisai was.

In those three fights you had at least the illusion of defense where guys just got caught. Not outright slugging, face forward with no attempt to block punches past the second round.

People can enjoy a good scrap but come on. StreetBeefs has had better fights.

Elaborate on how it was rigged against Castillo? Not asking out of anger, just curious. I didn't care who won that fight.

I know Corrales did some shady recovery spitting out the mouth piece but the ref was going by the rules ultimately. It is hard to fault him and at least he did take points away also.

constantly warning castillo even though corrales was the one cheating all through the fight.

giving corrales extra time to recover and allowing him to be kd limitless times. But stopping castillo the instant he is hurt even slightly.

I dont know if you watched the fight when it happened.
but corrales (the american) was supposed to win. He was the A-side as they say.

watch it again with this in mind.

I agree. Being how shltty this year has been, maybe FOTM'20 ? I'm sure Loma vs Teo will get FOTY.

based on what

I would equate this to a poor mans Hamed vs Kelley

kevin kelly was a straight up bum though.
As exciting as that fight was. It exposed hamed as the glass chinn that he was. He went life and death in a showcase fight against a quitter.

Based on projected performances. Sure, this could be a dud. But I'm leaning towards FOTY material. Loma is legit and Teo is a top contender and not because he landed the last haymaker.

I'm not touting H vs K as a good fight. Just above the fight in question.

Ok I get you.
Hopefully it is a good fight!

There will be more professionalism, if nothing else

Well Loma vs Teo will be the more better version.

We shall see.
