Trying to stay busy because that's how Katie stole rds in the previous fight
Yeah but idk.. a 1’2?? Almost 2 feet away from chick?

Who’s idea was that?

At least just jab to stay busy, especially if she’s a runner

But if she’s a runner, idk.. jab to the body the same way you jab the body of the bag when it’s swinging to make it stay still again

Not at all, she has no game plan.

She comes forward, throws straights, drops the left hand, gets tagged, resets, goes again.

That and she can bang, she has nothing else in the tool box.

Yeah that's what I'm saying, that is basically her gameplan lol. Come forward and throw punches. That style got Katie Taylor hurt and stumbling in the last fight

I don't know what the hell she was doing tonight. Trying to be bodiqua Pernell Whitaker or something

What got Taylor hurt in the previous fights is trying to bang with a banger. No more, no less.

Shandasia Green and Savannah Marshall had the fight of the night. Followed by Baumgardner and Miranda. IMO
There was no fight of the night to me :mjlol:


But I was entertained for a lonely friday. I liked Netflix’s presentation, this was more what I was curious about. I didn’t watch the other Jake Paul bullshyt, but I like him as a promoter.


He needs to find a new boxing partner though, because I think Amanda should ride out into the sunset. She definitely made enough bread now.

It was mostly just biasnesses and Jake Paul that made me dislike anything the most. The chicks I wanted to win kinda was disappointing.


I’ve never seen a full card of womans boxing though, so it was interesting to watch them fight and see what patterns they have a, but it was entertaining enough.

I had low expectations but again, because of Paul.

Keep it 100 with yall, the fighter im impressed with the most by far is that Tamm Thibeault chick - and she has the look. Sharp too





If I were a promoter I would trade my Baum stock for her. She just looks so sharp to me skill wise

That's not what got Taylor hurt in the last two fights.

In the first fight her trainer (Ross Enamait) asked her to trade in the mid to early rounds (Taylor at that point was the bigger fighter on paper, Serrano had moved up, they wanted to get her out of there early). This wasn't only a shock to aficionados (considering Taylors ring generalship, skill and experience), it was also the entirely wrong instructions, Enamait I'm sure would happily admit this in retrospect. They underestimated Serranos power and resilience completely.

The second fight Taylor got sucked in to wanting to bang, just like many greats do (Crawford, Bivol, Inoue) etc. This is the Hail Mary a fighter like Serrano needs to hang.

Serrano is on ice skates, at all times, as @TheNig deftly pointed out in this thread, Serrano can't cut a ring off to save herself, nor pivot, nor slip. So if you know how to move around a ring backwards, can pop shots like Taylor, and get off the ropes without getting caught, then an opponent like this is pretty straight forward.

This should have been the way from fight 1. Easy work if you can defend and remain focused, but only exceptionally conditioned fighters can do it for a whole fight.

so in terms of the whole card 5 out of the 8 fights delivered

ALL THE FIGHTS ON PRELIMS WERE FIRE!!

thibeault set it off with a nice stoppage of cassamassa
ali and furtado had a bloody brawl but the decision ruined the fight..ali lost this one clear
neekz beat the living shyt out of metcalf..metcalf is decent at best with chicks who cant punch like that..it masked her footwork flaws
cameron and camara put on a brawl..hard fight

main card
scotney and mercado impressed me because i was not expecting the uptick in offense especially from scotney who has no ko's yet..she believed in her offense late night..hard fight
marshall and green was sloppy with moments here and there...unfortunately this is where my parlay blew up...shoutouts to green for the upset but i did not think she won 96-93
baumgardner looked horrid against miranda...no PEDs and no competent trainer...was a mess and let miranda have one too many moments in that fight..she has caleb plant stamina..her offense has not looked crisp in a min..disappointing showing
taylor and serrano 3 disappointed...they both fought like they made a shyt load of money and showed...esp from serrano...that fire is like an ember now...she couldnt find motivation to avenge her robberies and this time taylor did win this shyt legit with simple boxing..:smh:
