Galal Yafai vs. Francisco Rodriguez | DAZN - 21 June 2025

[Ruthless-RKO]

He must have landed over 500 punches.

Galal around 200.

Was forced into dog fight.

Being ragged around.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Man vs Kid in there.

He was to experienced.

Taught him a lesson.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Come on.. who had Rodriguez via decision in the poll?

[Delta Jay]

There’s a very real chance Yafai will turn the tide here…

When you’re wrong, you’re wrong.

[rd350lc]

Did Yafai throw 1 jab all night ?

Great intensity from the mexican, but poor from Yafai .
Granite chin though to be fair, but crazy tactics.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Adam Smith never shuts up.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Hearns crying

And NEW!

Francisco Rodriguez!

[Ruthless-RKO]

Excellent cards!

The 3 young boxers also scored it very respectfully.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Hearn probably has dibs on Rodriguez’s next fight.. is he with a promoter?

Very impressed with the translator. Seamlessly transitioning from Northern English to Mexican Spanish.

Yh haha. He’s got a propa British accent then slaps on his Spanish

[Ruthless-RKO]

Normally we get a foreign translator.

[Delta Jay]

To take a minute and think out loud:

Yafai was a great pressure/volume fighter against a Cuban in the ams. He looked too strong for Sunny and ran through him. Sunny was honest and analytic on the comms tonight, which is cool and makes me like him more. GY showed a brilliant chin and serious heart tonight which makes me optimistic about his career.

Against a proper hardcore 12 round war Mexican he just wasn’t ready for that level of physicality.

My predictions:

Galal to win a world title eventually

Rodriguez to fail a test and immediately fight for a title

Sunny to crack on and be our favourite comm on the board

[Delta Jay]

Very impressed with the translator. Seamlessly transitioning from Northern English to Mexican Spanish.

I loved that as well. I’d love to go round his for a Sunday meal.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Ha! What happened to Bellew’s foot?

[keithmoonhangover]

Too much too soon for Yafai/

Fast tracked too quick?

Yeah, the Sunny Fight was effectively a gimmie and he hasn't fought anywhere near this level before.

Yh, Sunny didn’t even wanna box at that point

No, I’m not having that. I got told I was stupid for saying Yafai is would be too strong

[garethhop]

Tiny crowd in there tonight.

[keithmoonhangover]

Wouldn't be surprised is Rodriguez pops dirty.

What do you mean?

[Glass Joe]

Matchroom kryptonite Mexican fighters

[Taansend]

All three Yafai brothers seem to lack that little something to get them over the edge.

Good skills & fundamentals, nice blokes but maybe that inner drive or toughness lacking at top level.

I sort of see your point but nobody could question his heart in there tonight.
Just didn't have enough to keep the other fella off .
