Polish fella is a tad ungainly but he ain’t here to make up the numbers. Good first round from him.

Surely this pace suits Kobayel way more though.

You can see this pace is going to be hard for the Pole to live with

Fair play to the krauts in the crowd, they’re having a collective orgasm every time Kobayel lands a punch.

Just a poor main event. Kabayal looked poor. But against d grade he just kept trucking and got it done.

Don’t hate the stoppage, but big contrast from last fight. Bit early considering it’s an interim title fight.

Kabayel took some shots but he was also taking away the right hand at times of Knyba by hiding his chin under his shoulder and using a good angle. Knyba felt some body shots and shut up shop downstairs which left him wide open for the right hand. Kaba showed him no respect as he did to Zhang. This guy is going to cause major problems for any heavyweight around today.

Great bit of adjustment from Kabayal from the 1st to the 2nd round. When he came out 2nd round Knyba couldn't hit him. The head movement and the high hands. He's a great watch Kabayal with that come forward style.

The ref was about to stop it, then the pole landed a big punch. Then he stopped it shortly afterwards I can’t complain after that atrocious referee we just saw in the last fight. Agit was gonna pulverise him

Typical British stoppage.

End was nigh tho'.
The bean pole had no power, those uppercuts in the first had no effect on Kabayel.
For me he doesn't beat even Wardley let alone Usyk.

Knyba got the full Kabayel experience in the third round.

Ref was early but it saved a humiliation. Knyba had nothing to keep Kabayel off.

You need to have good footwork and angles, or to be able to push Kabayel back, or it's a painful night.

Usyk would make his plodding style look silly.

Would of been better off doing Milas vs kabayal and the pole Va the other German…

Milas looks a bit fragile but at least it’s someone with a bit of speed and movement at times.

a lot of Kurds in the crowd there judging by his final words. The translator didn't translate that bit. Not that you could really hear him

Kabayel pretty much fluent English too :salut:

Knyba came to win and gave a decent effort, but Kabs too good.
He's the obvious No.2 in the world and he can sell a stadium.

At least the promoters know they can sell fights in Germany after that, looked busy and buzzing.

Definitely, there is a large Kurdish community in Germany. Over a million going off internet articles.
