PBC on Spike

[chad]

Spike TV in the UK are showing the recent Barthelemy vs Shafikov card from 10pm tomorrow night. It clashes with the Haye fight live on Dave. Suppose you could watch one and record the other.

Can't beat free to air boxing

Shame they don't show these live or give us advance warning so we can avoid the result.

Same with a couple of sky delayed broadcasts.

Walker - Pearson was a good little scrap between relative novices, I enjoyed it.

Isiah Thomas Murat Gassiev next. Never heard of either man

Shafikov - Barthelmy is shaping up to be half-decent too. Like it.

Good card that i enjoyed it,i had Barthelemy's late surge at the end giving him the edge,115-114,i dont know how that judge had it 119-109,one of the worst scores ive seen,Shafikov was relentless and Barthelemy played into his hands by staying in the pocket instead of using his legs,luckily for Rances he used his brain for the last 3 rounds

It looked to me that barthelemy made a fairly early decision that he would have to slow his movement down so as to last the pace. Shafikov is a pressure fighter but was smart enough that he wasn't going to get tagged too often, at the same time didn't show that he could really hurt Barthelemy, I think had B moved more he'd just have given more momentum to shafikov, and tired himself out in the process.
