OutByEaster? Posted April 12, 2014 Moderator Share Posted April 12, 2014 What time are we looking at for that one? I'm looking forward to seeing Eubank Jr in a couple of hours - he's not great but he's great to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted April 12, 2014 Moderator Share Posted April 12, 2014 Another win against another poor fighter - he's in a strange situation at the minute, he can't find fighters at the level he needs to develop and he needs to decide whether he takes a big risk and fights someone he might not be quite ready for.

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I've seen Eubank Jnr fight before, and he's flashy as hell but I suspect if he was put up against a decent pro, he wouldn't last long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) Eubanks Jr is still fighting door men in eight rounders at the age of 24. He ought to step it up at his age, I can only assume that he didn't have much of an extensive amateur career. In other news David Price wins via 3rd round KO but embarrassingly gets sent to the canvas in round one, his glass ear again the area hit Edited April 12, 2014 by Dr_Pangloss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 What time is the Pacquiao fight scheduled to start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I would guess that it would be about 4/4:30am I'm staying up for it, interesting undercard as well with both Vasquez and Beltran fighting so I'll be watching them as well. I've watched the lot tonight Buglioni got done big time, he looked quite promising a year or two ago but I get the feeling that he thinks he is better than what he is, and what the ref was doing giving a standing 8 count when the fight should clearly have been stopped and then he looked like he wanted to ignore Franks corner when they stopped it. Skeet is shit I hate watching him. As for Eubanks he looks good against bums I think a fight with Billy Joe Saunders would be a good one, Billy Joe has got real stale in his last few fights and has massive stamina issues, I'd say he needs to move up a weight and then he might find a bit more power as well. The fight would generate a bit of interest, especially as them two **** hate each other outside the ring already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Buglioni loses tonight too. He has been a hype job for a few years now, I guess Warren might have to rethink who his next golden boy is going to be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Lost big as well, how he stayed up after that punch was quite incredible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Well it was a good fight with Pacquiao the clear winner. Bradley did some very good things, his best moments came from him using his jab and looking to counter, mixing it up with some ambush like attacks. The problem was that he was looking to load up too much, it left him flat footed and wild, allowing Pacquiao to pick him off. I'm not sure why they fought Bradley could knock Pacquiao out, Bradley isn't a puncher, it was a massive tactical error to just try and load up and catch Pacquiao in the exchanges. Pacquiao for what it's worth doesn't quite have the movement that he once had, he wasn't showing Bradley enough angles, but he was able to show flashes and come on strong in the second half of the fight. The fact is a past his prime Pacquiao still has the stuff to beat a very strong, younger and very hungry primed champion in Bradley, pretty impressive.

leemond2008 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Yeah Bradley was looking to load up too much especially in the early rounds, The Pac Man clearly isn't what he was however he was the clear winner, I missed the final couple of rounds because it must have ran over past 6am so the recording cut out. I still haven't watched the undercard yet either, I was planning on staying up to watch it all but sleep took me in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Shawn Porter absolutely destroyed Paulie last night. He is coming for Kell Brook and he is going to annihilate Kell Brook. Didn't catch the B-Hop fight but he has unified the light heavyweight division at the age of 49. The man is a living legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He struggled immensely with Carson Jones who really brought the pressure to him, Porter will bring even more pressure with his relentless style and foot speed, on top of that he's intelligent using distance and much more in the way of shot selection and power.
