After 12 rounds of punishing action (for viewers) Michael Grant KO'ed the former world title challanger Frans "Wide Buffalo" Botha. What's next for Michael Grant ? He now has 2 devestating knockouts in a row over top contenders. Michael Grant versus Vitaly Klitchko ? Yes please! Even though I do think Michael would have an easier time with Wlad.Little known fact. He used to spar with the Klitschkos back in 1998 and according to an ubias objective source (Grant's trainer) he easily got the best of them. So is Michael Grant the great black hope ? Time will tell ! Till then keep watching Michael Grant fight. Same devestating time. Same devestating channel.
I was going to post an embedded video of the knockout but it's so violent that they flagged it. Try finding it online on one of those faces of death or whatever they're called sites.
It was actually a pretty nice KO. I haven't seen the rest of the fight but if I was a betting man, I would guess that it has been a bit sloppy. Hopefully Grant gets another nice payday before calling it off. He isn't good but he seems like a nice fellow and has suffered enough of humiliation that he deserves some reward

Botha must either have no money or a pain fetish because he got paydays vs Tyson and Lewis and Wlad {you know White heavies always get paid more and have more chances than, say, Steve_Dave or John Ruiz } and he's still fighting. He's going to wind up hurt.
I'm shocked Grant was 1. behind on the cards and 2. took so long to knock him out. Botha is HORRIBLE and on top of that old and fat. Sure Grant sucks too but Botha's defence is HORRID and has no power and a crappy chin. How come Grant didn't land that same right hand like 11 rounds earlier. I haven't watched the fight and don't plan to so I guess it will remain a mystery to me.
What's even worse for Botha is that he continues his career trait of ALMOST getting something done. Almost got something when he beat Schulz. Almost had Tyson beat. Almost had Briggs beat. Almost had Grant beat. :laugh11: Give it up Frans.
Is this thread like 10 years old? Botha's still fighting? I thought he got hurt seriously and had to quit? Grant is still fighting too? This thread is like a time-warp.
