Hello Evren,

I reviewed the fight today it is a 5 round videotape no commentating crowd noise only 1 isolated camera and a ringside camera which they switch over to sparingly.
The fight itself was lackluster Doug Demmings came out trying to box Mugabi early using his jab and trying to control center ring but he did not have much on his punches to even get Mugabi's attention. Demmings gets dropped by Mugabi in the 2nd Round, he recovered but did not offer much resistance rather he fought in a prevent defense and clinching for the rest of the second round as well as for much of the third round in an effort to survive.
By round 4 Demmings was gassed and not putting up much of a fight. Meanwhile Mugabi was putting his punches together well however he was totally devoid of defense and you could see where this could become a problem for him in the future against better opponents. In the fifth round Mugabi dropped Demmings again at which time the referee mercifully stopped the proceedings.

Thanks for your detailed analysis. Bruno fought Ali Lakusa on the undercard I believe...
