mikE is the Bill James of boxing the only difference is that in Baseball, statistics are immensely illuminating and James makes many fantastic points... other than the part about statistics being important and making really good points, mikE is just like him in boxing
Japanese boxer turned it around big here, 12-5 down going into the last round then decked his man 5 times or so and the referee didn't do fuck all, no count, one warning. 22-17, winner,- THE BLUE CORNER.... they robbed the Japanese kid. Total farce, It was a stoppage win if ever I saw one.
I agree, this was a joke, especially considering the judges only had the jap ahead 12-10 in the 3rd round,(with a point deduction to booth so in fact, they had him 11-10), in wich he basically battered the azeri all over the place. The ref, who looked Azeri himself, was a sham as he should have deducted far more than a point as the Azeri basically threw himself to the canvas everytime he was hit.
These motherfuckers give out results before they broadcast the fucking fighs....FUCK IS WRONG WITH THEM...?
Holy fuck, I can't believe it, what a total cunt that ref was that just DQ'd the Iranian. Most absurd refereeing I've ever seen. What an utter cunt, he took points and DQ'd for doing, um, pretty much nothing at all, just being involved in a scrappy fight. I don't blame the Iranian for just walking out, I was hoping he'd punch the ref.
Disagree. Its funny you are one of the anti-Vlad's but the Iranian kid just held behind the neck, pushed down, held the Cubans arm all the time, he barely bothered to throw any punches in the 2nd round. Yet Ritchie Woodhall, another Anti-Vlad, was saying the Cuban was coming in with his head low. Iranian had barely any intention of fighting. You could see how desperate the Cuban was getting, flailing in shots and struggling to get his arms free. Then of course once his ruse got called he had to go all Islamic and Political.:shit: He forgot to give thanks to God too, like they usually do. :shit:
I don't think he did much wrong at all, the Cuban was holding too, and coming in a little low. Don't forget he took a point from the Cuban too in the first round, for, um, nothing. He was just a total chode.
The Candian Super Heavy looks like a roided up window-licker with more than just a passing resemblance to everyone's favourite Journalist. He's getting beaten up by some flash black from France called Tony Yoga or something. Fucking moron, flashy tinfoil on his shoes, he can't get any grip on the canvas. Some of these guys come to the Olimps thinking its an Ipod snatching session, well it fucking isn't, you flash fuck. Kazakh dude will be giving the Americans nightmares in years to come. He's just chock full of Eastern Promise.
I don't know if it was the same fight you fucker were talking about...but that Japanese kid really fucked up the other guy in that last round....
Yes, that's it, brilliant push he made at the end, with a great bodyshot that started the decline. The Azaeri was turned into James Kirkland and spent the next minute just flopping onto the ground and getting up and flopping onto the ground again, in order to run down the clock. Pathetic.
Anthony Joshua no more won that fight than I did. Cuban outboxed him all night then when Joshua got hurt in the final round the ref let them hold. Its basically China all over again.
Yeah its not fucking good enough. The Japanese kid was robbed, there was controversy in the Cuba vs Iran fight {thought the Iranian deserved the points off but Ref should have let it go on, Cuban woulda beat him anyways} and now this shit to seal the evening. Joshua is a remarkably big, powerful, muscular and decidedly useless pug. It could be a lack of experience but he's so slow and oafish. So far tonight in the Super Heavies, Zhilei, the Cuban and the French kid Yoka looked good, in particular the Cuban SuperHvy, who had real good movement and a proper jab.
