I went to the gloves for the first time and saw some good fights and some really lethargic displays....one thing I noticed is no one in any weight classes really utilized the uppercut, novice or open class, it seemed like like the only close quarter punches were hooks. Also, most of the fights had a brawl like atmosphere, when the distance was removed the fighters abandoned technique as well as their own defence.
Kronk gym cleaned the house, most of their fighters ended up taking all the close decisions and had a few KO's as well.
The heavy weight division was a joke. The open title fight was a large kronk fighter ( twinkie large ) who happened to be black, against a white skinhead with tatoo's all over himself. I thought the sinhead was doomed. The whole time before the fight the skinhead and his trailer park entourage were in the back of the house watching him get ready. This guy was putting on a show, he was dancing around like he was Suger Ray, cutting the tiles up, throwing menacing hooks at his little gangster friends wearing football jersey's and bandana's, it was hilarious. then comes the fight, they came out roaring potbelly against potbelly, krispy kreme vs dunkin doughnuts, they let it all go, for about 20 seconds then they were breathing so hard they almost sucked the paint off of the walls. Round 2 the black fighter from Kronk hit this kid so hard with a hook that his mouthpeice went flying 8 rows deep, the skinhead made it through round 2, but no dancing, where is the dancing guy? Round 3 no action again, no dancing, no tile cutting, I thought for sure they were going to have to re-canvas the ring as soon as the doughboy finished doing the Hustle. Anyways, the skinhead won because he aparently scored a few more times than the Kronk fighter. The Kronk fighter got robbed he deserved to win....No KO's, No dancing with the stars, no blood....disappointment....
