Round-by-Round: Gilberto Ramirez vs. Chris Billam-Smith - 16 November 2024

[jameswilson]

CBS has always leaked a lot of shots, I think the body work of Ramirez may pay dividends. When he is landing combos he’s sneaking good body shots in there and those body shots that you can’t see coming and tense up for will build up to be significant I think.

[Boxerbeetle]

Would give Zurdo the 3rd as well.

[Fearful_Freddie]

Neither would trouble Opetaia.

[Boxerbeetle]

Really hate Zurdo's short shorts.

[NoScoutingReports]

Good 4th for Zurdo, taking over here early.

[Kilburn]

What a cracking little fight this is.

[jameswilson]

CBS gonna get stopped on closed eye I think.

[Flump]

3-1 down, took a few too many there CBS, needs a good round

[margaret thatcher]

cbs face mashing up already

[Fearful_Freddie]

CBS a bit bashed up in the 4th but looks the bigger man. Will need to dig deep as Zurdo is faster.

[coneye]

Not looking great for Smith

[Boxerbeetle]

CBS will get stopped mid-rounds I think. Just doesn't move his head enough.

[coneye]

Billan too slow and stiff .time to stop trying to box him and sit on him and drag him into a brawl

[Sammy Scaff]

Chris in over his head sorry to say

[margaret thatcher]

smith can barely avoid a punch

[Flump]

Better from CBS, Ramirez picks a good shot when he opens up, very accurate

[NoScoutingReports]

Being outboxed here quite badly at the minute CBS, Zurdo has settled in and can’t miss in the exchanges. Needs a big round ASAP Chris, getting tagged a lot.

[jameswilson]

I honestly would consider the towel if CBS goes down. Let’s not let him get maimed and he may well have a few heavyweight wins in him but if he takes a sustained pounding here it will shorten his career a lot.

[Fearful_Freddie]

CBS has a really good chin.

[Kilburn]

Hmm CBS looking like he wants this pace to drop, but Zurdo at this point appears as though he can just let those combos go all night.

Not yet but they do need to keep a very close eye on it . Raminez just too good in evey department

[Fearful_Freddie]

CBS looks absolutely knackered after 6.

[Kilburn]

CBS looking like he has 8 rounds in him at this level.

[The Gratest]

Ramirez is keeping his defence tight and finding the gaps in CBS's defence. He's working him over now. CBS needs to land something big to try and turn this. He's taken some big shots in there.

[jameswilson]

Ramirez’s feet so much quicker. His feet are carrying him almost behind CBS before CBs can even half turn around.
