Round-by-Round: Shavkatdzhon Rakhimov vs. Joe Cordina | DAZN - 22 April 2023

[Counter-puncher]

Apart from Darren Barker who was it on comms? One of the Edwards bros?

Sunny. To be fair, he was fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised!

I tell you what, he was good, some great insight!

That was why I asked, i didn’t recognise the voice but I thought his input was very insightful, giving the kind of nuances and angles I don’t often hear.

They were 3 or less punches apart in 6 rounds. Definitely a close fight with plenty of rounds going either way.

Based on the stats alone and not assessing the power of each punch, the only decisive rounds (10+ punch differential) were 4 & 5 for Rakhimov then 7 for Cordina plus 2 because of the KD. Rakhimov also had 6 & 9 with a 6+ punch differential.

Can’t stand that massive mole twat Charlie Sims.

Do you ever post anything other than jealous sh1t?

‘I don’t like this guys trainers.’

‘I don’t like that guys hat!’

‘Ohhhh. I can’t stand that song.’

Yeah mate so jealous that I don’t have a mole.

When have I posted any of them 3 things?

I’ve posted 10,600 times less than you on this forum so not sure why you’re taking note of what I say, even though you’ve just made that up.

Fight of the weekend this one.
Babic lasted minutes, Garcia Davis was a bit meh, but Joe Cordina boxed like a champ, and entertained all the way.

[forcefraser]

Great fight and 2 very tough men.

I had it a draw though. Cordina undoubtedly did more damage and hurt Rakhimov more, but Rakhimov was busier

One of the best fights I have seen for a shile

[Ruthless-RKO]

Gonna watch highlights.

How else did everyone find Sunny on comms?

Don't love his voice, but he is good

[MightyWarrior]

Thought sunny was excellent on comms, a natural

FOTY. 116-111 Cordina for me.

[Spud]

A high class fight, with top quality punches and movement throughout. Reminded me a bit of Taylor v Prograis in that respect.

As for Sunny Edwards, I really like what he says once you get past that 'innit bruv' affectation in his voice which is so beloved of white kids wearing tech fleeces

[ashall2]

Travesty that Barry Jones isn’t used more.

Barker’s ‘OHHHH’ whenever a Matchroom fighter lands a punch does my head in.

[Teddy's Toupee]

Extremely impressive.

He will make it his personal mission to hound you from this forum.

[maverick23]

I really enjoyed the show last night. Solid undercard and a terrific main event.

Cordina has beaten 2 good fighters now and hopefully he can move into a unification. It’s not the strongest division but may be tricky to get it done given the promotional companies the other guys are with.

Hopefully they can get the momentum going with him.

I’m not fussed by the Barrett fight for him. Think it could be a technical styles clash.

joe beats nava but loses to o shaquie

I read the forum, I’m gonna take note of what everyone’s saying. Such as you posting that you don’t like Eddie Hearn or Ben Shaloms trainers. And then saying ‘Darren Barkers a bellend.’ And then ‘Sunny Edwards is a bellend.’ And then ‘Sam Jones is a bellend.’

Just jealous of anyone who’s having their lucky 15 minutes getting punditry or management work.

[gregregegg]

Ed really claiming Jordan Thompson is past domestic level…. Why try paint that narrative?
I don’t see the benefit of it…

Watkins clearly should fight the winner of chamberlain vs lawal for the brittish title. Never seen a clearer next fight for someone.

Instead Ed is talking about all the world champs he could chin even though his best win is a guy that’s not top 50….

[margaret thatcher]

thompson had a tough enough time with vasil ducar 2 fights ago, he's well off world level atm. watkins is english level, weak british at tops. the chambo-lawal winner will beat him too

[margaret thatcher]

we sure got some lanky arse gumby cruisers dont we

6'5 oko
6'6 thompson
6'5 big rick


that 6'7 skeleton that fwank is hyping as some monster puncher too

Well I've praised Barry Jones about 5 comments up so that's bollocks but I'll make sure I like everyone in future so you don't get upset again.

[NoScoutingReports]

Excellent watch this was, thought Cordina edged it but a good, competitive bout. I like the composure of Joe in there, even after a tricky period where he comes under fire he tends to reset and get back to the basics pretty well without becoming too flustered, right hand was very accurate.

[Oiky]

Looking forward to watching this again,was some fight

[NoScoutingReports]

Sunny is a good co-commentator/analyst, definitely hope to hear him on more shows in the future.
