I don't know why but that statement confuses me, how low do you rate Canelo
Have a day off!

Banter. Keep up the good work :TU:
Phew I've had my day off, thanks for advice.
Still confused

Someone called me obtuse the other day, now that's a big word I need help with especially as I have slimmed down.

Finally caught up on the full show.

I enjoyed the RDJ/Molina fight. Competitive and at a good level too. I had it even at the end but not surprised RDJ got it being the ‘home’ fighter. I’d like to see RDJ vs OD.

The Babic fight was class. I don’t think he can be in a bad fight.

The main was a really good fight I think. It’s the best I’ve seen Richards whilst Buatsi did well but showed what he needs to improve. I think he needs to be active. Fighting every 9 months won’t help him. Needs to be every 3/4 months as he needs to be sharp and work on his stamina. I had Buatsi winning by 2 points at the end.

I’ve said before on here that I don’t mind women’s boxing. I’ll happily watch a Katie Taylor fight and several others but having 2 full distance fights on the main card of a show is too much.

They’d have been better off having a prospect fight just before the main event - someone like Cheavon Clarke would have been fine - as if the fights aren’t good - they just zap the energy out of the crowd/viewer.

Babic fight was crackning entertainment. He is a great watch, out on his feet at the end of the 9th and then comes firing back. :bag:

I haven't been sold on Babic so far. His fights are like bar brawls, not boxing. High action with low quality, imo. Furthermore, his opposition sucks too much. I mean, when two equally matched opponents brawl, it brings the intrigue. Babic gets hurt or wobbled against his opponents mostly because he gives them chances with fighting opened wide like an idiot.

Obtuse? What’s that got to do with you slimming down?

It was a great scrap, he's not going to win a title but he's a really good undercard attraction.

Coconut, is fat but sexy. Anyone says he’s obtuse apart from him will get banged.
