Florian Marku vs. Miguel Parra | Sky Sports - 25 August 2022

[THEBUTCH]

I really can't warm to Marku at all.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Who’d a thought..

Any country can be corrupt..

Is there ANY fair country?

Nope!

[THEBUTCH]

Albania has a very chequered history

I really can't warm to Marku at all.

He's a poser. When he gets hit he always tries to talk to the other guy as if it didn't hurt him. Fake tough guy. It's very common with Albanians.

[Dioufy]

Always hated open scoring… I thought it got fucked off years ago.

Decent fight… got the feeling 6-4 Marku but I didn’t score it…

Marku is a prick… end of.

[THEBUTCH]

I don't like his attitude or his fighting style.

[Ruthless-RKO]

95-92 for me.

Without any point deductions of KD’s.

Marku won 6 rounds on my card regardless.

[Ruthless-RKO]

What’s with the camera angle.

[handsofstone]

Eventful fight I've got that 94-93 for Marku, the bumbling ref costing Parra the win on my card,, gave a bogus KD in Marku's favour in the 4th, his foot clearly on Parra's foot when he scuffed him over then took a point off him in the 7th for holding his glove out in Marku's face, he had been warned a couple times but Marku was as guilty boring in with the head not to mention forearms and rabbit punches, Marku just kept whining repeatedly to the ref, that mentality won't get him much further, Parra had good rounds in the 10-8 rounds as well he should've won them, he put his shots together nicely all night, Marku does put the earmuffs on well, blocks a lot but didn't always work himself

Parra dropped Marku with a peach of a left hook in the 8th, Marku recovered well enough but still lost last 3 rounds for me although the last was close, feel for Parra the ref done him no favours and Marku a loss waiting to happen

[Sweet Dick Willie]

Good fight. Marku may not be as good as I hoped he would be but he sure is entertaining. Shame he didn't get the knockout since Parra didn't really look good at all, but still, decent fight.

[handsofstone]

Did anyone else notice the ref waving no knockdown when Parra went down in the 4th before changing his mind when he got up and gave it?

[margaret thatcher]

ref was obviously crooked, ended marku's knockdown round early too

[gregregegg]

So marku got a bit lucky (more from ref than judges).

Hope they give him to Kongo or mckinson rather wait for Connor to lose and need an easy touch.

[margaret thatcher]

loss waiting to happen for sure

[Ruthless-RKO]

94 - 93 Marku, who is really showing his limits as he tries to trespass British/European level and hasn't fully convinced me yet but also many many other Albanians. Less arrogant antics, please. However, despite the bad eyelid cut, I didn't think Parra Ramirez was coming in for a tough fight.

Business-wise, such attendances and events can really motivate the albanophone nationals to pour some work into it and build some momentum for an international scene in Albania and Kosovo.

About the other "promising" guys: man, Vraja got destroyed and he could hardly recover from that, the Bulgarian Velev has some heavy hands for sure, Ymeri looked the usual tough guy promise who nevertheless struggled against a journeyman, Eti Qamili looked decent as his former bouts in Italy, despite his opponent sabotaging everything.

I've been on several holidays to Albania, lovely country.
