Round-By-Round - Ryan Burnett (IBF) vs. Zhanat Zhakiyanov (WBA) - October 21st 2017

[Tex-Mex]

Burnett's trying to bully the bully but I think he can make it easier on himself if he circles a little bit and start using angles. Zhanat can't do that.

ok so, one guy here has zz shutout, other saying ryan looks class and winning..

not watching and not sure what to think

[lazboy]

Good fight.

[Boxerbeetle]

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Burnett gets stopped soon, he’s been tagged loads this round.

VERY CLOSE RD

ZHAK 49 BURNETT 46

ZHA 59 BURNETT 55

[Tex-Mex]

Andy Lee has it all even midway through It looks like that type of fight.

[MightyWarrior]

Ryan looks class, But he is fighting the other guys fight - Trying to beat him at his own game, I’m not scoring properly but I think the Irishman is going to win this

[boxingknockout]

Sounds great! Keep it coming!

4-3 Burnett. Thought Andy Lee card at halfway was spot on.

[sammy95]

RB one up through seven. Thoroughly enjoyable fight.

Funny how Ryan has one world title fight and already a huge fan base, then you see someone like George Groves who’s been in great fights, is a world Champion and has a zero fan base it seems

Great body shots from Burnett that round.

[lazboy]

Burnett is very tough, tougher than he looks. Also zz is. Zzz stopped going to the body, tides changing.

Told him you told me you could break him down - go do it.

[MightyWarrior]

I mean Ryan really has the goods, But I’m not sure he needs to be exchanging bombs with this guy ...could make it much easier—- exciting fighter though

And ZZ Ain’t getting a decision here

I agree. Too bad his corner doesn't lol.

Hey it might be working though.

Soooo close, trench war fare, but Burnett Landing the quality shots, looks to have real power too
but it’s so close on neutral ground it could go either way

[jamamb]

so close? this thread makes it seem like rb running away with it
