boxing: 3/23 - 3/24
- Thread starter THE_THONG
- Start date
I only kept watching as I needed Garcia to win. The first fight was way more entertaining. Morales has been chowing down on the tamales apparently. I like Garcia(per my parlay) Zabby and Kirkland. Since Kirkland is with Anne Wolfe, I think he will be formidable. He is a big dude and throws every punch like he wants to kill a guy. Bye bye Molina.

After a crasy friday (still a little sad about the McP loss) that was saved by Juan Garcia (at least for me), here are my Sat plays:
Danny Garcia straight (-225) and inside (+400)
(Maybe add late rounds...)
Buckland inside / not the distance (~+100)
Some draws (as allways ) ;-)
Looking into:
Zab Judah vs Paris
Adamek vs Nagy
+ some more

opcorn2Made a little money with the large dog here but got to say the decision was nonsense.
Garcia was very game and moved forward constantly winging in shots but Ugas landed the cleaner more telling blows and clearly won the fight. There was even a knockdown for Ugas midway through the fight. i don't know how on earth all three judges were so far off on their scoring, the crowd which seemed to be with the gutty underdog even broadly jeered the decision.
Yet another decision gone wrong.
I think Garcia won on effort. He kept pressing the action, even though he is quite unpolished and crude. Basically ineffective aggression. Should have been a draw to be more fair. Am I using the words fair and boxing in the same sentence? WTF!
:facepalm:
I think you're insane! lol
Yes Garcia came forward and pressed the action but his work was clearly ineffective and Ugas ended up landing more blows, harder and more accurate shots and even knocked down Garcia.
Even a blind man couldn't give Garcia 5 rounds, imo it was a very poor decision...and yet a profitable one all the same.
Its all about perception. He just looked like he wanted it more. Listen chop suey, judging is SUBJECTIVE. Look it up. And boxing is about as honest as a used car salesman. I thought he lost; was just trying to maybe explain the result.
parlay
parlay
Kirkland/Garcia. Again; Kirkland is a different animal with Anne Wolfe in his corner. Lets face it, would Manny Pac be the fighter he is without Roach? He would be good, but not the guy he is today. Same idea applies to Kirkland. Molina is going to play slip and slide/hit and run, but I feel he gets tagged eventually. Also Morales seems to not give a rats butt at this point. Seems strange though. I was at his fight with Maidana. He showed tremendous heart and determination. Only a year ago ,but maybe its time to shut it down.

Hi Frank, I like Garcia a lot too!
Regarding Kirkland, in a pick the winner, I would go straight for him, but at -200 hmmmm
If you read all the forums & twitter, everyone loves Kirk...
Just makes me a little suspicious dont know, buy as all U guys have such a strong oppinion, I may follow the crew on this? :shrug:
Lucky me I still have some hours let to decide.
(Will bet draw for sure) ,-)
FYI: those of you that bet at e.g. 5D or some other US books may will get some of their props cancelled as they have it as a 12 rounder instead of 10.
If Kirkland had managed to beat Angulo without Wolfe, and he would be in the same fight now, I would bet Molina. I think Kirkland has 1/2 a brain. Luckily for him Wolfe brings the other half. Molina is no cup cake, but this is boxing and guys with decent skills that can crack are dangerous. Molina has only 6 KO's and some nice wins versus very decent opposition. It will be interesting if Kirkland's S&D will find Molina.
Don't know what the Chop Suey comment means and overall why you seem so agitated.
It was a bs decision for Ugas, I know why the judges possibly gave it to Garcia but it was clearly the wrong call.
