Mersey Beatdown - *Spoilers*

Post by steve689 »

A RBR running thread for the Liverpool card if anyone's keen?

George Groves just stopped Paul Samuels in the 1st round.

Yes good stoppage and maybe Samuels should retire because he is in danger of becoming a bit of a yardstick. I think we all knew which way the fight was going, whether the stoppage was premature or not, but the ref was hovering for a while to stop it so maybe he was a bit too keen.

Is that John Rawling back again?

Yep, I would like to see Samuels retire.

Rawling and Woodhall commentating :bow:

Good fight coming up next I reckon.

I'm rooting for Gethin.

Yep naughty swing at the ref after the stoppage.

Watson V Gethin is shaping up nicely though, as expected.

Groves looks a good one doesn't he, ref was far too jumpy in there though

Watson is bossing Gethin. Looks a good addition to the lightweight division.

Watson looks quality. Him v Murray will be intriguing.

He is performing well at range, and negating the work of Gethin by holding when in close. However, I think Murray would handle him easily.

Well that suddenly got interesting at the end. 96-95 to Watson but Gethin nearly had him out of there at the end!

He looked impressive, but I worry about his chin. Travis Dickinson poleaxed him in the amateurs and then repeated the win on points

Maybe he's got more in common with DH than we think then..could be a freak result though, the KO that is.

Possibly could be a one off. Time will tell. Travis Dickinson will be a very good professional if he dedicates.

Christ, is it me or is Price's style almost a identical to Fury? It may just be the size and physique but they look very similar to me in how the throw punches, hold their hands etc

I thought that too. Longer hair and he could be his twin brother. Cracking punch power, Ingleby was pretty badly hurt.

I'll say it now...if they can stay unbeaten...in two years time Price Vs Fury is a Megafight.
