TRL Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) Boy did well to get through those middle rounds. I wonder if he came in a bit too heavy, but fair does, he sucked it up for 4 rounds and came back strong. He will have learned a lot maybe too much muscle that sapped his oxygen in those middle rounds. The guy showed heart there. edit I will add, he got lucky wlad did not hit the chin with the second punch on the knockdown, as it would have been all over, but you can only comeback if you have the chance to. Well done AJ Edited April 29, 2017 by TRL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 AJ got away with that big time. If that went to points he was a gonner. Much prefer UFC these days. No hiding and no clinging, just out and out war for 30 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Coach Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Wilder talking about a bout, but I think Joshua would take him out under 5 rounds. I do honestly believe right now Fury would be Joshua. Fury is just a pain in the ass and doesn't play to the boxing script. Joshua still has a lot to learn. But he took a giant step forward tonight.

Kid in the Riot Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 What a fight. I agree with @TRL about the muscle weight. AJ was gassing for 3 rounds after the knockdown and barely throwing anything back. He can't afford to do that again, particularly in with a younger fitter opponent with more of a killer instinct. I actually thought his corner could've thrown the towel in at one point. I thought Wlad could have finished him but knew he wouldn't as that's not his style, he prefers a chess match. Wlad was quality tonight though and deserves huge praise. The night was made complete by Eddie Hearn getting booed at the end and finally realising that no one wants to hear from you ya bell end! Great stuff. Could they do it all again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UFC covers many forms of fighting tactics whereas boxing covers 1. UFC if far more technically challenging, but I do prefer boxing out of the two. Get a boxer in with a UFC fighter at the same weight and UFC fighter wins... unless the boxer has had the relevant training. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That decision bit him in the ass, I think as you say AJ was there for the taking, I bet those muscles were feeling so tired for a few rounds, legs wobbly and arms feeling like lead. Showed heart, a lot of heart, but I am betting Wlad feels like he made the wrong decision in that fight now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UFC is very much dependent on your style, its not all on the floor with elbows to the head, the most spectacular knockouts are far from floor based grappling,unless you are looking at the woman's ex champ when it was all about dislocating the oopponents arm. UFC is brutal where as boxing imo has more class. I like both, but prefer boxing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
