Caleb dominated that fight and showed some balance with both hands that is not common. This kid can go and I’ve never heard much about him. Great fight and a great talent that now bolsters a division that could use some pizazz. Impressive Caleb!!! Very impressive. Congrats.
FYI, don’t comment on a fight after missing a third of it which consisted of 2 knockdowns and 4 dominant rounds. Don’t waste my time, Dork. Comment on fights after watching the whole fight. You aren’t qualified and sound stupid as hell.RKY wrote: ↑13 Jan 2019, 23:40caldo2025 wrote: ↑13 Jan 2019, 23:12 Wow! That’s some unheralded talent that we were just treated to.

He didn't dominate, the commentators were cheerleading. I missed rounds 1-4 (including 2 knockdowns) but of the 8 rounds i watched i had it 6-2 uzcategui.
It was a fun fight but not great standard for world level imo. Uzcategui didn't leave it all in the ring, his work rate was poor and footwork stinks. Plant looked like he was just trying to see out the win but didn't bang home some nice counters. Canelo or Smith would smoke them.both.

So what is your point Caldo - Caleb dominated the entire fight or Caleb dominated 1/3rd of it?caldo2025 wrote: ↑13 Jan 2019, 23:44FYI, don’t comment on a fight after missing a third of it which consisted of 2 knockdowns and 4 dominant rounds.

Caleb won the first 6 rounds clear as day, and had scored a knockdown in the 2nd and 4th. He already had the fight won on points before Uzcategui ever won his first round.RKY wrote: ↑14 Jan 2019, 00:07So what is your point Caldo - Caleb dominated the entire fight or Caleb dominated 1/3rd of it?caldo2025 wrote: ↑13 Jan 2019, 23:44FYI, don’t comment on a fight after missing a third of it which consisted of 2 knockdowns and 4 dominant rounds.

Uzcategui clearly won 6-12 & i thought 5 was close. You might be right that points wise Plant had it won by 6 (barring KDs for JC) but winning the first half & ultimately 114-112 hardly seems 'dominanting the fight'.gilgamesh wrote: ↑14 Jan 2019, 00:09Caleb won the first 6 rounds clear as day, and had scored a knockdown in the 2nd and 4th.

I thought Uzcategui won the last 4 rounds, and possibly the last 6, but it wasn't enough because the first 6 rounds were beyond doubt in Plant's favor.
Exactly. The point is that if you missed the first 4 rounds of this fight, you missed the fight. Don’t comment on it. I still think that Plant did enough to win most of the later rounds but don’t comment on the last 8 rounds of a fight like the first 4 didn’t happen. There were 2 knockdowns and Plant put on a show where t Jose was chasing 6 points after the first 4. Stevie Wonder could have scored those rounds.gilgamesh wrote: ↑14 Jan 2019, 00:09Caleb won the first 6 rounds clear as day, and had scored a knockdown in the 2nd and 4th.

Watch the fight again because your scorecard would be ridiculous. There’s no way Jose won last 6 rounds. No shot. What fight did you guys watch.

He ‘clearly’ won rounds 6-12 and 5 was close? Seriously?RKY wrote: ↑14 Jan 2019, 00:20Uzcategui clearly won 6-12 & i thought 5 was close.

Uzcategui didn't "Clearly win" 6-12. He didn't win Round 6 at all, and you could argue he didn't win Round 7 and 8 either. The only rounds he won clearly were 9 thru 12. The scorecards at the end were an accurate reflection of the fight I watched.RKY wrote: ↑14 Jan 2019, 00:20Uzcategui clearly won 6-12 & i thought 5 was close.
