As expected Caraballo was pony but Stevenson looked pretty good to be fair, lovely knockdown in the 1st, doubling up the right hook to head and body, Caraballo wasn't hurt but still a quality KD all the same

Stevenson done as he pleased, working Caraballo up and down, landing hard crisp punches, the body shot for the finish in the 6th was sickening, hard right downstairs then a left to the solur plexus folded Carabello in half


Arum needs to up his game

It's a tough one mate, I've wrote Warrington off too many times to mention and Stevenson hasn't got a solid win yet, I think Stevenson no doubt is the faster sharper boxer with the skills but Warrington has plenty positives of his own, if he can drag Stevenson into a firefight down the stretch then I'd fancy Warrington to maybe pull it out the bag if it was here in UK,

What about yourself mate, who ya got?

Stevenson in a close one mate. Can see Warrington starting fast and Stevenson taking over in the later rounds. Could end up a snidey home town decision if it's over here though.

$4.99 per month for a Top Rank subscription via Fite TV (£3.90) No idea if the site is geo blocked. If it's not blocked, and if it does indeed cast to TV, could be worth the money for tonight's action and the weekend card too.
I just subscribed so i'll see how it goes. Checked my bank and it's only 3.95 so hopefully it streams ok. It's coming up as purchased on the site so fingers crossed.
If i were i would cancel it now because you still have a months left for the rest of the cards. So when that runs out and on the day of there next show. buy it again for a month and cancel next day

Thanks for the heads up,

I ordered yesterday and watched the full card this morning.

Top Rank have a busy schedule coming up this month and no UK broadcaster.

I thought I'd get for the month and see how it goes.

I liked the look of Jared Anderson.

Really early days I know but had a little bit of a southpaw Riddick Bowe about him.

Few thoughts:

I like the lack of crowd, can hear all the punches and how hard they are. Can overhear a bit of the corner work too, now if we could just toggle off the commentary...

Shakur has put some beef on, and his power seems to have increased with it. Which is to be expected of his age and pedigree.

He looks the business, clearly hasn’t taken his foot of the gas in lockdown. Sharp as a freshly snapped Stanley knife and skills for days.

Always interesting to watch how the footwork of top amateurs changes as they adapt to longer fights, and he’s done a great job of that too, constant movement keeps opponent guessing but without the tank-draining bounciness you can use in a 9 minute fight.

I think he's orthodox?

He reminds me of Bryant Jennings a bit, though he has a much deeper amateur background

He's ortho but his camp says he's better southpaw.

The lack of crowd just sounded like your regular early undercard fights, never bothered me a bit and it's always great to hear the punches land, can't see me being fazed by this for however long it lasts personally

There's another Top Rank show tonight I believe, Jessie Magdaleno v Yenifel Vicente as main. Wish they were at the weekend to avoid sleep deprivation for work the next day :lol: at least Navarette is on next weekend.

Many of the US cards hardly have anyone there anyway, US atmospheres mostly suck except for the bigger fights tbh

Incredible that it Vicente nearly made it to the end without being DQd, justice served in the end that was ridiculous, 4 deductions for 3 low blows, mental, the scores would've been interesting,

As for the fight, a couple of nice knockdowns from Magdaleno, both from right hook counters, one in the 1st and the other in the 5th, that 4th round was bizarre though, Vicente hits Magdaleno low then nails him with a hard right as he's in distress, Magdaleno was on the canvas for a while before action resumed, Vicente lost 2 points but then hit Magdaleno low again to lose another point, probably shouldve been DQ there and then, Vicente lost another point for a low blow in the 10th, crazy that he lost another point before another low shot finally prompted ref to DQ Vicente, Robert Byrd had a mare

Christ knows what Vicente was playing at, he obviously tried to be aggressive and had a little success unsettling Magdaleno but overall Magdaleno had the quality picking Vicente off and using the ring, 2 knockdowns and 4 deductions in 10 rounds, Vicente was always needing a KO
