[NoScoutingReports]

Pretty interesting fight here between Abdugofurov & Silyagin!

[NoScoutingReports]

Silyagin boxing nicely, very accurate at the minute.

[brilo33]

i reckon that beard is just for men

[Glass Joe]

Deines lasting the distance will be a victory in itself

[brilo33]

respect to Deines put up a good fight, beterbiev power shone through

[margaret thatcher]

it looked to me like bert was only going 70 percent on the gas in this fight, he will have to fight a lot harder vs joe smith

[brilo33]

it looked to me like bert was only going 70 percent on the gas in this fight, he will have to fight a lot harder vs joe smith

but really beterbiev power is what wins his fight, joe will ave him

[bigjack]

Looked like a very big crowd and no masks in sight.

[margaret thatcher]

spreading dat russian love

[handsofstone]

Sort of your typical Beterbiev fight where he can look basic and too easy to hit but just keeps coming forward and has rocks in his hands, Deines deserves massive props, lasted longer than anyone thought he would and was game until the end, positive 1st round then got dropped by a chopping right at the death, he wasnt hurt and kept his composure next couple rounds, by the 4th Beterbiev was starting to come on strong and it looked nearly done, he cuts the ring off superbly and puts together some lovely combinations, his striaght shots to the body are crippling

Deines never lost heart though, looked like he regained his confidence a few times and threw plenty to keep Beterbiev honest, massive props as i say, the left hook to drop him in the 10th for the finish was classic Beterbiev, when he lands clean and hard, you'll know , cant take nothing away from the corner for waving the towel, they know their guy

[margaret thatcher]

ya deines was a tough guy for sure, lots of heart. would be a good test for a lot of guys

[THEBUTCH]

Even when Beterbiev boxes within himself he's still great to watch and you never know when he's going to uncork a big one

Artur really cranked it up in the 6th and despite a spirited effort from Deines, the writing was on the wall. Even with the patience Beterbiev was showing, he wasn't going to let this go the distance.

Beterbiev v Bivol anyone ?
