Diaz vs. Rakhimov | Teixeira vs. Castano | DAZN Card - 13 February 2021

[JxhDel.]

A good win for a class Rios.

[JxhDel.]

Castano is just dominating Teixeira, what a machine he is.

[Boxing Prospect]

Castano Vs Charlo will be fun!

[JxhDel.]

So happy for Castano, what an astounding win! Now I hope he faces Charlo for the undisputed or Crawford...

[JxhDel.]

JoJo Shavkat 38 38. Rakhimov is now on a spree.

[JxhDel.]

The draw was the best result for me. Diaz looked busted but got some nasty shots, Rakhimov hopped like cricket and delivered a lot but was not that consistent. JoJo should just not fail weight cuts anymore, though, as it was on the verge of being discarded.

Castano vs Teixeira was too one sided but still pretty entertaining, i had Castano running out a 118-110 winner, just relentless in his pursuit of Teixeira, he never stopped coming forward and pressuring Teixeira, he was like a bull on him all night, getting up close and banging away with both hands, i would've liked to have seen him work the body more, it looked like Teixeira's height and southpaw stance was made for it, Teixeira for his part was tough, tried to fight it out but just didn't have the strength or pop on his punches to deter Castano from coming forward, still he sucked everything up that was thrown at him kept plunging away but was reeling around in that last round, a bit more finesse from Castano and maybe he could've got the KO, still some engine from Castano and a dominant win

[NoScoutingReports]

Very impressed with Castano last night, cut the ring off nicely and was completely relentless in pursuit of Teixeira - accurate with both hands and a top engine. Effective pressure fighter, Teixeira was outgunned in there and couldn't shake him off, to be fair though he showed great heart to hear the final bell especially after being hurt in the final round. Castano and Jermell would be a cracking watch.

Rios looked good earlier in the night too, loved his combination punching throughout.

Were any of the fights worth me catching up with on DAZN replays?

You can catch highlights. Should be worth it.

I had Diaz beating Rakhimov 116-112 but no real complaints about the draw, not overly exciting but a decent fight, Rakhimov brought volume, a lot of his work parried but some getting through, Diaz fought in spurts, landed that big left , his best shot, looked bigger and more hurtful than the ones Rakhimov landed, both guys did look stunned a couple times but recovered well to fight their way back into it, i just thought Diaz pulled away down the stretch with his quality and harder shots, a lot of close rounds though, i wanted Rakhimov to win here, no time for guys who cant make weight, too common these days, piss me off almost as much as PED heads

I managed to get 20/1 on the Diaz draw.
I thought Diaz nicked it 115/113. Diaz is a class act but I don’t think this will be his last outside of the ring mishap. Already heading into the underachieved category with his skillset.

Castano is a class act. I can’t imagine Charlo is in a rush to face him.

The DAZN coverage is truly shocking though. They seem to think their little arguments are banter. I’d prefer to have Keys and Gray on commentary.
Mannix can’t justify his scorecard to safe his life. Obviously puts a few dodgy rounds in to provoke a reaction.

[DrDuke]

Diaz edged that for me. 115-113. Rakhimov seemed to be more active, but he was less effective and lacked pro-experience. Diaz underestimated Rakhimov, but still managed to look better, as his defence and timing were good. Also, it was Diaz, who scored a clearly bigger amount of damaging shots.

Castano pretty much bossed Teixeira.

[PredatorHayds]

I saw Roach taking Rakhimov on the pads before the main event.

I love Freddie and it’s incredible he’s able to still do what he does. But it looks a massive struggle for him. I can see him having to start taking a back seat.
