Round-By-Round - Tommy Langford vs. Avtandil Khurtsidze - April 22nd 2017

[handsofstone]

Dubois very open

[crusader]

Dubois looked like he was fighting outside a nightclub at 3am at the end there

Yes, a bit wild and seemingly rushing for a KO.

[SAPFO]

The jab comes out nice, but the right doesn't. He lunges forwards with it. He needs to sort that or someone will catch him eventually. No accuracy either.

[handsofstone]

It looks as if his punches thud into the opponent, he's a bit rough around the edges, needs to settle down a bit but he's got talent, he's quick and he hits hard, he needs a good trainer to mould him into a contender, if he keeps getting into exchanges he's gonna get KO'd at domestic level

[wesshaw1985]

"to Ronald McDonald" hahaha

[Boxing Prospect]

Dempsey trolling with the references to a Sky show? >_>

[lillywhite14]

Very raw. Pop the jab more.

Incredibly early in the lads career. Look forward to seeing how he develops

[SAPFO]

When are we going to get a heavy who choses not to blow people out in the first 20 fights, and instead just boxes, and works for the opening. I'm sure they'd learn a hell of a lot more.

Hughie Fury?

Hughie Fury?

Oh yes. We'll know if thats paid off next few weeks then.

Con Sheehan seems to be doing just this.it will be very interesting to see how this stands him in a few years.

[wesshaw1985]

W@rren needs to get Nurse in with Yigit, for the EBU, next if he comes through this...

[Boxing Prospect]

Nurse fighting like a bit of a fool here

He's a 6 5" + aint he? where would you place him in 5 years based on what you've seen?

[Stuarty]

Hughes started great. A lot better than I thought. Nurse starting to look more comfortable now as Hughes pace drops.

I dont know,my first thought is he hasnt looked anything spectacular but like you say its rare to see a hw prospect coming through and just boxing all the rounds and against good opposition aswell.

I feel like Peter gets frustrated and wants to see him go through the gears in fights and blow a few of them out but its a fine line between getting rounds and being boring.Its a shame we'll probably never see any top level prospects do it this way for fear of going stale and losing appeal

[handsofstone]

My card and Ritchie's are way off, ive got Hughes way ahead

[Stuarty]

Same mate. Disagreed with his scoring for the Smyle Williams fight as well.

[handsofstone]

115-114 Hughes

[Stuarty]

Got Huughes by one. BN seem to have Nurse winning comfortably!

[Stuarty]

Draw! Fair enough I suppose.

[skanksta]

Draw is a fair result.
I had Nurse, but it was a tough fight to score.

Nurse is so frustrating - he looks the complete package in patches, but then he coasts, fights the wrong fight, drops to his opponents level and powder-puffs about.

[SAPFO]

Draw sunk my fackin acca

[skanksta]

Draw sunk my fackin acca

shoulda done draw no bet
So should I

Woodstock vs Holt is a decent scrap

[Boxing Prospect]

This has been good, Woodstock up, looks a tasty fighter!
