Shafikov vs Commey

[Cent0089]

hello did anyone saw this fight? ....SD win for Shafikov? was it controversial ?

[Freedom2013]

It was a very good fight, definitely worth watching. It was close but not controversial.

Both fighters had their heads snapped back during the fight from hard punches.

I had Commey ahead in the middle rounds, but he became tired and slowed down while Shafikov came on strong in the later rounds.

Most observers had Shafikov winning a close decision, mainly because of his relentless high activity right up until the final bell.

[Cent0089]

i just watched it. What a beautiful display of boxing skills by Shafikov. Average speed average punching power, but he was giving 100% in every second of fight with that nonstop pressure and very good movement. Damn he make advantage of being short

[kashmir786]

I say he dealt with commey easier then robert easter did lets see when he gets his shot will he be champion again

damn i wanna see replay, did Shafikov earn shot at Easter jr?

That's funny. Easter and Shafikov are of an almost perfectly equal caliber. Usually in boxing you earn a shot at someone when you prove you're at least 65-70% as good as them. But in this case, Shafikov is like 95-100% as good as Easter. If Easter got to fight Shafikov, it would be a splendid opportunity to prove that he's a real top 5 lightweight if he could win it decisively. Easter should be eager for this opportunity to prove himself.
