This photo shows some telling signs:

1. Nakatani and Bob Arum are holding hands.

2. The eyes of the Knockout behind Nakatani are closed.

3. Both Knockouts are showing four fingers.

See any others?

Nakatani is rightfully a fan favourite but I expect Loma to outbox him and not run out of gas after 6/7 rounds like Verdejo did.
I’d love to see Nakatani do well but he’s quite limited, doesn’t use his natural advantages and doesn’t move his head.
Loma UD 119-109.

Ali 10-9
Started better.

Rd 1 - 10-9 Ali

Rd 2 -

10-9 Ali
20-18 Ali

yeah 20-18.

Not by much, but gotta be 2-0.

It's not dominant in anyway, but it's easy to score.

30-27 Ali - he's winning each round by a bit.

Rd 3 - Brant just not doing enuf. Ali bigger, stronger, better so far.

10-9 Ali
30-27 Ali

Agree.
It's 40-36, "will he stop him?" type of fight.

Rd 4 - Brant just posing while losing rounds.

10-9 Ali
40-36 Ali

Rd 5 - same thing different round.

10-9 Ali
50-45 Ali

Rd 6 - Kd Brant down ready to give it up. Brant has nothing for Ali.

10-8 Ali
60-53 Ali

No contest.

6-0 and winning each round better than the last.

Brant giving his all just not to get KTFO.
A real beat-down.

Rd 7 - the most Brant has done is be smart enough to take a knee. That is it. Brant lands right. Brant trying to do something but he has not been able to pull the trigger on his right hand enuf. Ali has boxed very well.

10-9 Ali
70-62 Ali

Rd 8 - everything Brant has thrown has been half hearted. Ali landing bigger stuff now. Nothing coming back.

Brant needs to find another job.

Looks good Ali - beating up Rob Brant easily without breaking sweat.
Not a thriler tho.
