Wlad actually threw a couple of rights in that round, still slow-paced though. Sultan is pretty much doing a survival
r7 this is the round I predicted... lederman gave last round to sultan... wlad lands a nice right... and a couple of jabs... and another right... nice jab... sultan landed nothing all round... wlad 5-1-1
Is that sledgehammer that Wlad is using on Sultan's jab even legal? I can't remember ever seeing this as blatant as this. Might be legal but it doesn't seem quite fair to me for some reason. :dunno:
lederman gave r7 to wlad r8 wlad trying harder it seems.. nice right by wlad..sultan takes it okay..wlad throws him down... another really fast right by wlad.. lots more aggression from wlad.. sultan not looking like he can counter it.. but sultan still trying.. clear wlad round... wlad 6-1-1
r9 wlad catches him with a combo and it should have been a kd when sultan falls low into ropes... another wlad round...very slow 7-1-1 wlad
Wlad hurt Sultan early in the 9th, then went on to controlling the rest of the round in cautious manner. Sultan is looking for big shots, otherwise he is completely outgunned
Wlad missed his right hands in the 10th, still took it with jabs though. Sultan jumped in to clinches
R11 hard right by wlad...sultan okay clear round for wlad...lands some really nice stuff late in round 9-1-1 wlad
Somewhere, on the end of some unemployment line, Fres Oquendo is watching this on his portable TV and thinking "boring fucking cunts".
r12 briggs's title fights were worse; some of ruiz's, but this is bad . another slow round.. wlad's round 10-1-1 wlad
And people complained about Ruiz, Ruiz wanted to mix it up, they were alway's someone busted up in his fights, tonight was a sparring session, and a light one at that.
Exactly. He won every round against a unbeaten fellow champion. It is difficult to shine against a guy who wallks around in a crouch and tries to last the distance. It was a shitty fight, better than Ibragimov's last title fights though
