Boxing 12/15 - 12/18

[gardenweasel]

speed has always given bhop problems...and pascal has oodles of it...but if he makes mistakes,bhop probably still has the ability to capitalize...

looks like just plain too much speed here....and add the homecourt advantage into the mix,and it`s a tough slog for hopkins...

pascal wins by decision prop is only even money...

RESULT

GENNADY GOLOVKIN KO 3 NILSON JULIO TAPIA

First time ever stopped for Tapia. Golovkin looks like a beast. I'd like to see him and Pirog duke it out. Where has Pirog been anyway? I think Golovkin will probably face N'Jikam next - good fight.

Tyson Fury now fighting Zack Page. Page is way too small for Fury, but a much tougher proposition than Galen Brown, which was just a joke.

It's a good result for Golovkin, but that Tapia is a runner and a skater. Definitely want to see how he does against better competition.

I think decision prop at even looks pretty nice, but I also think if B-Hop finds the speed and pace too much at age 46 - he will start in with his bullshit. I wouldn't be surprised to see a DQ in this match.

Anything from headbutts, accessive holding, low blows, etc. Hell, Hopkins tried to get Roy Jones DQ'ed 4 times earlier this year ! The guy was a faking, flopping fish.

[THE_THONG]

my guess is he intentionally caused the scene so he wouldn't have to weigh in. What a joke.

 

[THE_THONG]

[Fightwriter]

Mayorga's weight

my guess is he intentionally caused the scene so he wouldn't have to weigh in. What a joke.

[THE_THONG]

[Ghost Kid]

What did I say
I KNEW IT

easiest bet of the century
will Mayorga make weight?

"NO" Ticket cashes at the window please

gotta go against this guy tomorrow
just have to

let's do it fellas
only one play at these odds

Stalker Walker time
if he doesn't get there, it's still worth a shot
Mayorga hasn't trained a day for this

I'm with you wee
good luck
:toast: :toast: :toast:

I'm on Walker too!!! Wee, you convinced me bro. You caused me to take a deeper look into this one, and now that I did, I think Walker is absolutely worth the shot! Mayorga's ridiculous level of inactivity was the deciding factor. Plus Walker has been very active, and against bigger guys, that was a good point. Plus if Walker loses I can blame it on you (just kidding). Even in Walker's last loss to Andy Lee he was competitive, even taking the middle rounds and making Lee's corner nervous before the KO. The only 'bad' loss was to Fernando Guerrero, and that was the speed that got him. Mayorga isn't gonna beat him with speed. I see a dogfight here, and I can see a fat Mayorga getting very tired and sloppy. If Walker wins Wee, you'll have to give me your account number so I can make a deposit (just kidding there too). Very nice spot here, and Walker is absolutely worth the very kind odds.

In the words of my man Ghost, LET'S DO THIS!!!!

I was at the fight in Chicago , ringside actually and the fight wasnt competitive in the slightest.

Andy Lee dropped Walker twice with vicious uppercuts but the bias Ref called both slips.
Its was a cake walk for Lee and he boxed 2 weeks later without a scratch on him.

I read the same piece you did on the fight from cyber boxing and has to laugh my ass off at how bias it was , nearly as bad as the Ref.

The fights up on youtube in poor quality but you can see the knockdowns and how Walker doesnt come close for yourself.

 

[damien4191]

I think all Walker needs to do is stick and move for the first 3 rounds. By then Mayorga will be exhausted and he should be able to to take over.

Hmm... Can't believe everything you read I guess. Thanks for taking the time Roots, I appreciate it. I'm gonna check it out on Youtube. I still like Walker to give Mayorga a good scrap tonight.

I just watched the Lee-Walker fight, and from the footage Lee certainly appears to completely outbox Walker from a distance. The whole fight isn't there though, and is definitely filmed by one of Lee's entourage, as you can hear the pro-Lee comments. Could have been clipped in Lee's favor. I believe you though Roots... I would never expect Walker to beat Lee anyhow. Mayorga is a much different proposition though.

So I hear Lee may well get the HBO date against Sergio Martinez in March (Zbik was rejected by HBO as an opponent). What do you think Roots, do you give Lee a chance here? Big chance for him.
