SHIT SHIT SHIT....I hope the guy is ok and just collapsed from exhaustion...God I hate to see this...Arslan being taken in a stretcher
i didn`t see the last few rounds...apparently it was an uppercut that got arslan?....
to me,it didn`t look like herelius had any snap on his shots whatsoever....
ya` never know
"Cruiserweight Steve Herelius (20-1-1, 11 KOs) scored an eleventh round TKO over comebacking former champion Firat Arslan (29-5-1, 18 KOs) to claim the vacant interim version of the WBA world title on Saturday night at the Porsche Arena in Stuttgart, Germany. The lanky Herelius scored from long range with his southpaw jab, but as the bout progressed and he slowed down, Arslan?s pressure paid dividends. Arslan staggered Herelius in round seven, sending him wobbling around the ring as was one punch away from ending it. Herelius was later deducted a point for a headbutt in round ten by referee Stanley Christodoulou. Arslan, appeared to be on the way to a sure win, however after a Herelius uppercut in the eleventh, he suddenly seemed completely out of it and barely made it back to his stool. The bout was then stopped by trainer Michael Timm.

arslan was on the ropes getting hammered to the sides of his head
he was done after that
it took him awhile to get back to his corner

Have quite a bit on Melligan tonight but couldn't resist the +350 hedge. The African doesn't like pressure so as long as Melligan presses the fight, he should win. I like Mell tnight obviously, but I think the current odds are a little off. Good luck!
I'm with you Romi. I got Melly closing out a parlay but he's way too heavy of a favorite now. Glad I jumped on it early

Firat Arslan +100 - Medium - tough LOSSIf not for Firat's age and rust, this would be a large play for me because Firat has the perfect style to beat Herelius. Herelius has no jab to keep Firat away from fighting inside. Herelius pulls straight back and Firat should be able to land as long as he throws. Firat has quicker hands and digs with the left downstairs and upstairs. Firat should have better stamina. And Herelius usually only throws one punch at a time in contrast to Firat that repeatedly throws combinations inside. I see Firat by UD by walking Herelius down and outworking him on the inside.
Jeannine Garside +1000 - Small Quanah's WIN (Excellent Pick Quanah with sound reasoning) :0074
I agree with Quanah's analysis.
Anges Adjaho + 270 - Medium Note: Hedged with Melligen by Decsion -120 to a Small Play
Speed kills and mentally I think Adjaho should be more focused coming off a fight he could of won if not for his costly decision to try to get a point deduction from his opponent.
A.Adjaho points handicap +17? -115 - Small
Solis wins inside distance -215 - Medium
Solis may be past his prime, but Ortiz has no chin and is a shot fighter.
Good Luck Guys
