DEGALE vs GROVES

Cleverly looking pretty good actually

 

Decent first round. Plenty of variation in Cleverley's punches albeit not a lot of power. The little bald dude seems fairly game.

MTF

 

Although he really doesn't use his height at all

 

i think he looks slow and he has no form of defense at all

 

although against this opponent it wont matter

 

Who? Cleverley? He looks alright to me

MTF

 

his hooks seem to travel around the earth before getting to the guy

 

do you think he can be a real world champ?

 

11/2 on this dude going the distance.

 

More of the same in the second: bald bloke plodding forward and walking into lots of flurried, not very hard punches.

MTF

 

I think Dawson would annihilate him (if Steward gets him to throw some f'n punches).

 

Cleverly SHIPPING punches. Thought he was gonna go for a second there.

 

he has absolutely no defense. any bigger puncher there in round 3 and it would have been good night for cleverly.

his defense is horrific.

 

Yup. There isn't that much at 175 right now though, to be fair. Hell, the best at the weight is a guy who lost fairly wide to Froch. I agree with the comment on his defense though- he's never had much of one

MTF

 

I have no idea what Karl sees in the guy, or anyone ::

He's OK, but not legit world class at all. European level at best.

 

He's definitely from the Chico/Margarito school of tall fighters rather than the Hearns/Klit one.

 

Entertaining third round. Cleverley shipped some hardish shots and seems to just want to brawl with this guy. He might well have lost that round...

MTF

 

ridiculous

 

There's a fucking shock. Fight stopped on another cut. Fucking KNEW it as soon as I saw blood.

 

Britain is becoming as bad as Germany.

 

Fuck me: that is a terrible, terrible stoppage

MTF

 

as soon as cleverly fights a decent puncher with any skill he gets knocked out.

 

Yep, this is fucking shameful.

Blatant bullshit.

 

How utterly pathetic this country is becoming when it comes to these scandalous refereeing calls. Absolute bullshit.

MTF :shit::shit:

 

Literally stopped within 10s of getting a minor cut on the side of the eye. Total disgrace.

 

Worse than McCloskey.

 

haha crowd have booed the last two fights. fucking warren

 

I've been calling it for years and yez wuddint lissen.

 

Lets hope the main event salvages this bollocks.

 

Which was also fucking terrible

MTF :shit:
