Bit of needle in that round which made it a smidge better!

Samie · « **Reply #64761 on:** December 4, 2020, 10:45:09 pm »

Should've ended this a while back.

Welshred · « **Reply #64762 on:** December 4, 2020, 10:46:06 pm »

Yep. Saunders has every round for me, completely outclassed Murray.

Welshred · « **Reply #64763 on:** December 4, 2020, 10:50:48 pm »

Gave Saunders every round but think he should lose for not knocking Murray down at least once

Samie · « **Reply #64764 on:** December 4, 2020, 10:50:52 pm »

Agreed mate, something like 120-108.

Loved the surprise on Murray's face when two judges scored one round level, then even bigger surprise when the other gave him 2 rounds

Lusty · « **Reply #64767 on:** December 4, 2020, 10:54:44 pm »

If I was in a charitable mood I could have found 2 rounds for Murray there.

Alf · « **Reply #64768 on:** December 4, 2020, 11:02:32 pm »

I thought that was a good performance from BJS.

Aye, Billy Joe looking half decent here.

Is Billy not with Davidson anymore?

He looked half decent tonight.

Samie · « **Reply #64770 on:** December 4, 2020, 11:44:29 pm »

Don't think he is mate, gone back to his first pro coach.

Yeah, he's back with Mark Tibbs, Jimmy Tibbs's son.

Surely BJS has to step up a level or 2 for his next fight to prove he's a worthy world champion at this weight. What about GGG & if he wins that, the winner of Canelo vs Smith.

Samie · « **Reply #64772 on:** December 5, 2020, 12:03:41 am »

He said he want's the winner of Canelo v Smith or Canelo anyway.

Anyone going to stay up for the Spence Garica fight? Predictions? Is Garcias dad still a loud mouthed asshole?

Samie · « **Reply #64774 on:** December 5, 2020, 01:19:00 pm »

Garcia's dad still a massive dickhead and Spence to win this quite comfortably.

Clayton Bigsby · « **Reply #64775 on:** December 5, 2020, 10:38:23 pm »

Have it 30-27 to Arthur. He is a big unit, think this will be very hard for Yarde

Legs · « **Reply #64776 on:** December 5, 2020, 10:45:34 pm »

This Yarde fight is a shocker !

Yarde aint really doing much to counter the jab? Lazy boxing if you can call it that.

Samie · « **Reply #64778 on:** December 5, 2020, 10:47:38 pm »

Or he's being paid not to counter.

Clayton Bigsby · « **Reply #64779 on:** December 5, 2020, 10:50:57 pm »

58-56 Arthur through 6. Yarde needs to slip the jab and take some more risks

Clayton Bigsby · « **Reply #64780 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:02:04 pm »

86-85 Arthur through 9. I don't know what the hell Yarde is playing at. So passive

Legs · « **Reply #64781 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:05:51 pm »

I agree this guy Arthur has something wrong with his right hand.

Clayton Bigsby · « **Reply #64782 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:10:05 pm »

105-104 Yarde through 11. All to play for in final round

Clayton Bigsby · « **Reply #64783 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:13:34 pm »

115-113 Yarde for me

rawcusk8 · « **Reply #64784 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:14:24 pm »

Yarde took that last round and possibly the fight. Wonder why he didnt bring the urgency earlier in the fight?

Wabaloolah · « **Reply #64785 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:17:38 pm »

Arthur on a split decision 115-114 115-114 111-117

Legs · « **Reply #64786 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:17:59 pm »

No way Arthur won that

Golden_Child · « **Reply #64787 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:19:17 pm »

Yarde not happy at that!

For what it's worth, I wanted Yarde to win but can't argue with the result, other than the mad scorecard for Yarde. A point either way was fair, it was a very close fight.

Samie · « **Reply #64788 on:** December 5, 2020, 11:56:27 pm »

Our judging ain't as crazy as the yanks at least.

Draw or Yarde win I had it.

Yarde has reached the stage whereby he cant go any further without proper training of the fundamentals. Tunde has got to go

I heard he only spars with the trainer which is ludicrous. he's a pure athlete with a skill level far below what's required in boxing at the world level.

Samie · « **Reply #64792 on:** December 6, 2020, 01:17:46 am »

He has no skill level. But his training session methods would make you believe he has the skills of SRL but we all know only one man who has that kind of skill., step up Eubank Jr.

rawcusk8 · « **Reply #64793 on:** December 6, 2020, 01:22:17 am »

Any streams for the fight later please lads? I’m assuming it will be on around 5am, right?

Alf · « **Reply #64794 on:** December 6, 2020, 01:22:29 am »

I like Yarde & thought he did enough to edge it. But he should have done more in the first half of the fight and make Arthur use the right hand more. Had he produced the work rate in any of the other rounds as the final one, he probably would have got the nod.

He has to go for the rematch & put it right or I think the Buatsi fight is a long way off.

Samie · « **Reply #64795 on:** December 6, 2020, 01:25:38 am »

Streams start at 2am lads.

Think it will be comfortable for crawford

Don’t think Spence wants any part of Crawford, he’ll drag that out for a few years till Bud is a little older and slower. Think Spence takes on Thurman or someone similar next personally, hopefully see Crawford/Porter next year.

Samie · « **Reply #64798 on:** December 6, 2020, 01:25:04 pm »

Knew would be an easy nights work for Spence.

Thurman if not for the injuries and lay offs would be the man post Floyd at this division. Those years of surgery/ inactivity took it out of his prime.

Alf · « **Reply #64799 on:** December 6, 2020, 02:31:00 pm »

You've got to think with the issues between Top Rank and Terrence Crawford that he'll sign with PBC next year when his contract ends if not beforehand.

So we get the Spence fight.
