Rungvisai vs. Gonzalez II: Who's watching?

[Ruthless-RKO]

Once again British fight fans, we have a lot of us that tend to stay up to catch live fights after midnight.

Tonight we have the much anticipated rematch for Rungvisai vs. Gonzalez taking place on Sky Sports.

We also have a good undercard with Juan Francisco Estrada vs. Carlos Cuadras and Naoya Inoue defending his WBO title against Antonio Nieves.

I work tomorrow at 1pm, so I'm definitely going to be watching live.. Going to hopefully catch all 3 fights.

How about yaselves?

[Boxerbeetle]

I'm not staying up for it, will watch Sunday morning. Will no doubt stay up for the GGG fight though.

[PredatorHayds]

Yes I will be staying up for it.

Fantastic card.

[Tangerine]

Best card of the year.Be rude not to

Absolutely buzzing for it

Bit of needle between Cuadras and Estrada at the presser aswell.Cuadras making clucking noises when Estrada was on the mic then whips out a rubber chicken and starts squeeking in Gallos face...

[Counter-puncher]

War Estrada!

[TheGingerBomber]

ITs on Sky? Aw well that's a bummer.

ITs on Sky? Aw well that's a bummer.

Yh, box-nation have previously showed Chocolatito, due to him being co-feature of the last few GGG fights

[Ruthless-RKO]

Wow, Gonzalez got wrecked.

Wow, Gonzalez got wrecked.

That was pretty much exactly how I described it...I could tell he wasn't feeling it after the 1st round. He'll probably return to Flyweight if he really said those things in the Press Conference about just not being able to handle these guys at 115, but I doubt he'll ever get back to being the Champion he was.

[crusader]

Yep, looked uncomfortable from the start and was complaining almost immediately. Huge drop from their previous fight that I thought he deserved....

Yeah, the weight clearly told in the first fight imo, Rungvisai seems to take Gonzalez best all night and just kept chugging forward.

Do you think dropping back down would do him any favours at this stage of his career?

Probably not, but I mean he just recently became a big name in the sport and started making decent money so I'd say it's worth at least one more shot, and at least a guy like Nietes is up there in years as well.

Expected the KO after watching him fading over the past few fights, didn't expect it that early though, was a great fight while it lasted

[Tomasino]

Sor Rungvisai is a very hard puncher at that weight. He was digging hard from the start.

Him against Inoue is gonna be a barnburner!

[crusader]

inoue ultra-talented offensively but can be lazy defensively...id love to see it

he was in with a survival mode opponent tonight and didn't show all his tools

[kbackup408]

caught the highlights man just feels like overnight (over two fights) Gonzalez's punch resistance has just disappeared !

[samwbr]

Was pleased that Rungvisai settled the argument as I don't think he got the credit for his win last time.

[Oiky]

What a KO

[Boxerbeetle]

Terrific card. Gonzalez just too small at this weight, needs to move back down if he continues.

Just no money in those weights for him - wonder how long his contract with Loeffler lasts for.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Terrific card. Gonzalez just too small at this weight, needs to move back down if he continues.

I agree, he became a 4 weight champion beating a legit titleholder. He should have dropped back down after that. He seems too small and his power isn't effective.

Style wise I think Estrada is the man with the best shot to beat Inoue. I wouldn't fancy Sor's aggression taking him into the fire of someone who punches like Inoue does.
