Oh, I wouldn't go betting the farm.
Bolotniks can bang and maybe a tenner for the KO :maybe:
I watch boxing for upsets , don't happen all that often though .
Ricard is a live dog - can win this 1/10.
Buatsi is faster, sharper, better schooled - a different level on paper, but Bolotniks is just so.. manly he might just beat anyone on a good night.
:TU: on a good run of form as well.

Bolotniks landed 3 or so big shots that round, semi buzzed buatsi. Also was landing some hard jabs. Buatsi round over all but i dont think it will mater, someone is going to get stopped here i feel.

Bolotniks lively, undeterred by Buatsi's success, let's hope he can make it interesting for a few rounds

Buatsi let's his jab get lazy during a round, Bolotniks has trained to land that right over it

Buatsi keeping Bolotniks at the end of his jab.
One round apiece.

Bolotniks still not deterred by Buatsi's best this could get interesting

I’ve got Buatsi 2 up after 2. A good, competitive fight though.

Yep, some good quality in there from both with contrasting styles.

Could blend into something really good here.

I like Bolotniks feints.

As someone else said Buatsi doesn't have much head movement.

Bolotniks can and has hurt Buatsi with that right hook. Buatsi has managed to avoid a few clean overhand rights, but that hook has been landing on him a bit much.
2-1 Buatsi

Enjoyable opening three rounds, Ricards looking very focused.

Think Buatsi may decide to be boring here. Exchanging with Bolotniks may be too risky.

30-27 JB but every round is close and competitive. His jab’s winning the rounds for me.

Needs more head movement and keep his left a little higher.

Bolotniks might fare better rushing in trying land then using the clinch, he doesn't clinch at all.
