As you may have gathered i purchased the PPV on Secondsout and providing it holds out i will put some scores and what happened on this thread.
Johnathon Banks was on just now he beat Gustavo Enriquez by a 4th round Technical Knockout i suppose. Banks got Enriquez in a sort of arm lock as they clashed and punched down on his mans shoulder causing a dislocation. As Enriquez touched the canvas you expected the ref to jump in at any second but it was Banks who jumped in and laid on some more blows until Enriquez had to literally run around the ring to get some respite. Poor refereeing, Banks looked okay but nothing spectacular to that point but anyway Haxhi Krasniqi is on now against Berry Butler in a fill in bout.
I missed Andy Lee earlier, apparently he was explosive. More to come.

Good man...not so much of a round by round though as i'll reply when i'm not stuffing my face or busy type thread
Krasniqi and Butler are both stringbeans, it has a nice tempo to it though. Krasniqi is Luan's brother apparently.

This isn't the worst fight in the world, Butler is decent and Krasniqi is game enough. Krasniqi was milking the arse out of a low blow in the 2nd, Butler had a point deducted for it.

Krasniqi is reminiscent of Urkal the way he strides around the perimeter of the ring but then throws wide lopping shots some of which landed. Butler took centre ring then and worked behind a solid left jab. Butler's round for my money, Krasniqi though will probably get this if he stays upright.

This has developed into a great little fight, i gave Butler that last round as well. He is controlling the round from ring centre and backing Krasniqi up but Krasniqi cant miss with his telegraphed lopping right hands and right uppercuts, suppose thats why Butler has 12 losses.
Butler landed a body shot mid round and Krasniqi sagged onto the ropes, Butler tried to finish him but couldn't. On we go.

Great round 5 and a standing ovation for these two. This fight has the strangest pattern to it, Butler hurts Krasniqi's body and hammers him on the ropes until Krasniqi lands a haymaker to stagger Butler back and they go toe to toe. I gave Krasniqi that last round narrowly although he was hurt late on to the body.

Into round 6 and the connection keeps freezing and stuttering it's a nightmare, hope it clears up for the main event.
Krasniqi probably won the last from what i saw, he is one of those human windmill sorts. As the decapitated black knight says to king arthur in monty pythons holy grail "we'll call it a draw"

Krasniqi took it on points over 6...commentator thought Butler did enough he looks distraught. A bit of a hometown decision maybe but it was close. A draw would have been a lot fairer, Krasniqi isn't going anywhere anyway.
Three German judges by the way.

Zaurbek Baysangurov and Hussein Bayram are on next contesting the vacant European Light Middleweight title. The commentator seems to think Baysangurov is something of a prospect, indeed he is 15-0 (12) and Bayram 24-2. Should be an interesting one.

Quiet opener, Bayram circling and moving away with Baysangurov stalking. Nothing of note but Baysangurov did show some moments of class, maybe a lot more to come from this kid. Apparently he beat Marco Antonio Rubio in Kiev last time on points. Bayram has only ever beaten Jimmy Colas.

Baysangurov won the 2nd, was starting to open up at the end of the round and took most of Bayram's efforts on the gloves. Klitschko just entered the arena.
Baysangurov reminds me of an orthodox version of Sergei Dzinziruk that sort of style, Dzinziruk incidently KO'd Bayram in 11 four years ago.

Another Baysangurov round, he has a high guard and impressively moves back a step to take the sting out of Bayram's counters, good defence. His shot selection and variety is good too, nothing spectacular but his left hooks and right hands are working well.

Round 4 was Bayram's, he landed two good flushn right hands that had Baysanguriv flailing and looking a bit sorry for himself. Bayram became the aggressor and penetrated the Ukranians tight guard on more than one occasion.
Lennox Lewis is in the crowd.
Baysangurov was dropped by Rubio in round 1 in his last fight but Rubio is a puncher so no shame in that.

Bayram hurt from a low blow, took a time out in round 5. Baysangurov punched wildly after the bell as well he is walking a thin line i think he is frustrated and lacks experience. That round was close probably even, Baysangurov is throwing some tasty uppercuts but Bayram is punching back and finishing the exchanges well.

Baysangurov is cut in round 6 but he also won the round but i think he had a point deducted by the referee. The commentator didnt pick up on it but there was a PA announcement, who knows. Anyway Baysangurov's sharper work took the round and some neat uppercuts but the Frenchman Bayram is no mug, a durable sort.

Baysangurov has a cut on the right eye and looks bad, the ref is Barevocchio from Italy and he is very indecisive. Baysangurov is fouling again this time pushing the glove into the eye, a lengtht time out is called for some reason after Bayram slipped over. I have no clue what is going on really.
Baysangurov has a point deducted definately this time.
Another time out for loose tape, it's frustrating stuff. Bayram is landing well despite the interruptions. Baysangurov is rattled.
Bayram looked troubled late on but it was a 9-9 as Baysangurov took over at the end of the round. Maybe he can start to work Bayram over as he tires. Henry Maske is announced to the crowd.

Baysangurov is bleeding in the mouth and the right eye but he won round 8. Bayram is being backed up and holding on and leaning in a bit, he is tired.
Baysangurov's repertoire of fouls makes Derry Matthews look like an angel! Bayram's corner are admonishing him for playing up and complaining to the ref. Not heard that one before.

Thanks, Steve. Great job!

Baysangurov is putting a lot into these rounds and clearly won round 9. His stamina will be called into question now as we approach the championship rounds.
Bayram is offering some arm punches as resistance but the Ukranians power is open to debate as he has not hurt Bayram despite 12 KO's in 15 wins so far. Interesting stuff, round 10 coming up.

Baysangurov controlled round 10 and was punching after the bell again. Bayram has had the wind knocked out of him a little bit and was feelijng sorry for himself and trying to spoil, Baysangurov is workmanlike enough but without being explosive.
Bayram landed some quality shots in a flurry late on that backed Baysangurov up but Bayram is being read the riot act in the corner, he needs the KO i would imagine.

Baysangurov won round 11 and is showing good conditioning trying to finish the bout and getting a bit wild, he would do well to stand off and box for the 12 rounds. Bayram is knackered and showing great resolve and spirit to punch back but it's strictly arm punches and Baysangurov is in command.
