Anyone watching the fights on ESPN tonight??

[saul_ir34]

Who is all fighting??

[Larson]

Germainne Sanders vs. Mike Jones right now. Teddy Atlas and specifically the other broadcaster are sucking Jones dick, it's getting kind of repulsive.

[Bslice]

I am, and the more Atlas talks, the more I want to change the channel STFU Atlas

[Ramshall1]

Atlas is allright, no one has more passion for boxing than him.

[saul_ir34]

Yea i just tuned in.
Seems like a boring fight.

[Bslice]

Im not knocking his passion, I find his voice annoying, and I am very irratible/edgy tonight

[BlueApollo]

Atlas is allright, no one has more passion for boxing than him.

I like Atlas. Which metaphor is he abusing tonight?

[Ramshall1]

He does go over the top a bit, I can hear him now

[tays001]

[pipe wrenched]

Just tuned in... k9 and Ouma are getting ready to go. Get some!!!

[tays001]

Just tuned in... k9 and Ouma are getting ready to go. Get some!!!

hey pipe you think you can keep me posted

[pipe wrenched]

hey pipe you think you can keep me posted

Will certainly do my best. 3rd round just starting.

1st round very tenative so far, kind of ugly with wrestling goin on
2nd round Smoger warns k9 for initiating the clinches, still ugly action.

[Larson]

Bundrige looking like he's on teh roids.

[pipe wrenched]

Ouma is lunging in a lot, upper body in front of his feet. Throwing kind of wild, then k9 ties him up. Hard to score so far to be honest, but IMO 2-1 Ouma. But im not a pro judge by no means.

[pipe wrenched]

Crowd boo's at the bell for round 3 end.

[pipe wrenched]

Ouma is lunging in a lot, upper body in front of his feet. Throwing kind of wild, then k9 ties him up. Hard to score so far to be honest, but IMO 2-1 Ouma. But im not a pro judge by no means.

LOL!! Teddy has it 2-1 K9. But I feel like Ouma's done the better work.

[pipe wrenched]

K9 NASTY CUT over left eye in round 4. Blood ignites Ouma, he's on attack now!!

[pipe wrenched]

Round 4 has to be Ouma's. The cut has not been announced yet as if punch or butt for cause. After the blood started flowing, Ouma went on big time attack with K9 backing off getting tagged.

[pipe wrenched]

round 5 going, blood under control and K9 is looking more aggressive now for sure.

Smoger gives K9 last warning before point deduction for holding.

[pipe wrenched]

Ouma some big rights and good body work to follow.

[pipe wrenched]

Yo Tays, you still here bro?? Wanna make sure I'm not typin my ass off for nothing. LOLz.

[pipe wrenched]

Round 7 under way, and K9 is boxing much better now he's settled down from being cut. Close fight.

[Rilz]

I'm here pipe thanks for the updates I'm at fucking work

[rexobse]

Yo Tays, you still here bro?? Wanna make sure I'm not typin my ass off for nothing. LOLz.


keep going Bro... i'm following... big thanks to you...

[pipe wrenched]

Ouma had to eat a couple of bombs in the 8th. Point deduction for K9 though, so I go out on a limb after that and think it's safe to assume Ouma is taking lead.

[pipe wrenched]

Cool fellas, just wanted to make sure. lol.

[pipe wrenched]

After 8 Teddy's card is 76-75 for Ouma, I think Ouma could be a little more ahead than that, but it is close because it's just a come in throwing by both, crash body/heads, then tie up and fight in a little.

Ouma lands big right hand.

[pipe wrenched]

Damn, 9 is awfully hard to call. Very close round with both fighters having bright spots. Still thru out a good bit of crowd boo's to reitterate the uglyness I've been trying to describe. Ugly, but rough as hell.

[pipe wrenched]

10th K9 comes out declaring war!!! It's on now!

Teddy gave 9 to K9 which bring his card to a draw after 9. this round very important.

[pipe wrenched]

Ouma weathered the storm, starting to do better, but I've seen Ouma fight better on several fronts.

[pipe wrenched]

It's as if Ouma is a lot less relentless than what you're used to seeing him.

[pipe wrenched]

Another damn close round. Have to wait for judges scores now. I think, especially considering K9 lost point deduction, Ouma probably squeeked it, but this could go either way!!

[Sinew]

:rofl

[pipe wrenched]

Although not sure yet, but I feel Ouma should win, it just wasn't the same old Ouma we're used to seeing.

[brooklyn1550]

Decision for Bundrage...

Ouma's career is pretty much done.

[pipe wrenched]

OHHHH SHITTTT!!! They gave it to K9 WIDE!! Good thing me and teddy are not judges, lol!! I had Ouma by one more point than teddy, but officially Wide for K9!!

[platnumpapi]

man ouma is done, he needs to move back down.

[pipe wrenched]

Decision for Bundrage...

Ouma's career is pretty much done.

Brooklyn, did you score it that wide for K9??

[brooklyn1550]

Brooklyn, did you score it that wide for K9??

I caught the last 3 rounds:lol:

[Random1]

I think it was a bit wide...but either guy could have gotten the win. I won't complain too bitterly, but the lightweights who got a 4 round draw were a lot more entertaining.

[pipe wrenched]

I caught the last 3 rounds:lol:

Cool.:lol: :good Was some damn hard rounds to score in that one. But most IMO would have gone to Ouma. K9 was just getting backed into the ropes then holding big part of the time. LOTS of boos from the crowd thru out.

[BlueApollo]

This is the year for dog players, all I can say. +500 to the bank, if you had the balls to play it. Not I...

[pipe wrenched]

I think it was a bit wide...but either guy could have gotten the win. I won't complain too bitterly, but the lightweights who got a 4 round draw were a lot more entertaining.

Yeah, I was saying could go either way, but those were all wide in favor of K9 including a point deduction from K9.

[pipe wrenched]

Tays001, did the best I could. Haven't done too many of those, but she-it, got my post count up kind of quick. LOL.

[brooklyn1550]

Cool.:lol: :good Was some damn hard rounds to score in that one. But most IMO would have gone to Ouma. K9 was just getting backed into the ropes then holding big part of the time. LOTS of boos from the crowd thru out.

Thanks:good

I'll download it sometime within the next week and score it.

As a Detroiter, I'm happy for K9. But I'm an even bigger Ouma fan. Where does he go from here? 3 losses in a row.

[pipe wrenched]

I hear ya, but considering K9 lost a point in a round it looked like he clearly lost that one for sure making 10-8, I have to say I still feel that was wide, could have gone either way, but not expecting wide scores for either. K9 did look strong and kept composure thru the portion of the fight where his eye was gushing.

Ouma just did not look him self really at all. No where near as relentless as usual, sloppy as shit at times, and he wasn't throwing as many punches as what we're used to seeing.

[tays001]

Brooklyn, did you score it that wide for K9??

dam k9 won ouma is through JUlio blast right thru k-9:rofl :rofl

[BlueApollo]

Ouma is done. If he can't throw 90 a round, he can't beat anybody. Don't know whether it's a lack of dedication or his demons surfacing, but what made him a champ seems to be gone. And it hurts, because if there's anybody you'd like to see succeed in the game, it would be Ouma.

Props to K9 though, he made some nice adjustments late.

[pipe wrenched]

Brooklyn, did you score it that wide for K9??

Nothing to brag about, but mine and Teddy scores were only seperated by a point or so, the judges had it by a mile for K9.

Yep, Ouma's punch count was way down, but that could have been due to K9's plan of tying him up and fighting so close thru out.:good

[emanuel_augustus]

I had it 95-94 Ouma. Sloppy fight, not very entertaining. K9 is a fighter that Ouma should be knocking out in seven or eight. Could be the end for Ouma.

The best fight was that second one. 5' 11" lightweight.

[pipe wrenched]

3 losses in a row for Ouma, hard to go up from there. Hard to hold the JT loss against him though, for challenging the MW Champ and dropping a UD. So 2 losses really matter in a row.

Me too!! I had Ouma by a point or so!! Good call. I was worried my scoring skills were in serious decline.:lol:

Nah, it really wasn't. Again, I give Bundrage a ton of credit for sucking it up after he got cut, but the Ouma who beat Jantuah absolutely blasts him.

[pipe wrenched]

good point, thru out I kept saying this is not the Ouma we've been used to seeing. Ouma did not look like a former world champ in there tonight.

[Boxing Tees]

Somewhat disappointing fight, but the way I look at it, it was as simple as this. Ouma looked awful. Didn't really throw any combinations the entire night. Volume was down. Was eating straight rights. K9 had the better fight plan. Go for the big right. Tie him up. I like how he finally has worked on his left a little. Good win for K9. Bad night for The Dream.

[Shane_Erich]

Poor Ouma, it just looks liek he doesn't have the will to go out and fight like he used too.

[emanuel_augustus]

Me too!! I had Ouma by a point or so!! Good call. I was worried my scoring skills were in serious decline.:lol:

I thought in those middle rounds Ouma got a bit more active and K9 really stopped doing anything. Ugly fight to score though. Draw would have been ok with me and would have been without the deduction on my card.

[pipe wrenched]

Exactly. Either way or draw. But wide for K9 with a point deduction to boot surprised me. Glad your in here though, I did the rBr and was had Ouma ahead, then the scores made me look like a dumb ass.:lol: Little bit of second opinion, which is right on par with mine (and Teddy too really) makin me feel better.

[C Money]

Ouma is SHOT!! He looks nothing like the guy that used to throw 1000 punches a fight guaranteed.:nono Perhaps the roughness of his life has worn in. Great story and admire him as a person but it certainly seems he's slid quite a bit.

Bundrage? Didnt see much improvement. This Win just catapults him into a bigger fight where he'll get spanked by a live opponent. That little cut affected him much more than it should have IMO. He's still the "one trick" pony as far as I can tell. At least he's worked hard for it but I dont think there's a high ceiling on his ability.

Wont complain about the decision but it was a useless fight:-( Neither did anything to shine and Bundrage looked more towards survival rather than being impressive:good

Mike Jones showed some heart and toughness vs his opponent but should have learned he needs more work. Ge got caught with some counter left hook's and needs to be tighter with his D after getting off. Good size on him and it would serve him to use it a bit better.

Glad to see Spaddy ringside. I just saw him 2 nights ago and he looks good has had good sparring for this fight and is fighting some guy who's fights have been mostly in Europe. I cant remember the name but I think the last name is Krystoff? Not sure on the spelling but he is supposed to have a decent record.

Got my ringsides and if anyone is near enough to the Avalon Hotel in Erie PA? On april 6th at 2 pm should be a decent card. Ringsides at $60 a pop. Supposedly Yusef Mack will be on the card as well. Looking forward to a good day:good

[Boxing Tees]

With all due respect, I just don't see how you could have Ouma winning that fight. He really didn't do anything all night. K9's roughhouse tactics, hate them as much as I do, took Ouma right out of the fight. If we're being fair to both fighters, if K9 doesn't get cut by a little Ouma head action, he wins easily. The only rounds he lost decisively were largely because he was so distracted by the cut. I'm an Ouma fan, but that performance was awful.

[vonBanditos]

How long ago was Ouma pushed as the total package? I don't know how he fell so quickly, and no disrespect to Bundrage, but I thought this fight was easy vCash. I couldn't have been any more wrong.

[Boxing Tees]

Really? See, I was on the complete different end of the spectrum. I saw Ouma fight Taylor and then lose to Roman, and thought, this guy is done. And while K9 is nothing special, I figured he would be able to frustrate Ouma with his usual tactics. I didn't think there was any way the odds on this fight should have been what they were.

[C Money]

Too many WARS. Those wear in time and thats exactly what you saw in his performance tonight. Many tried to talk him up in his Taylor performance but while he showed heart? He took another beating.
Tonight a lesser classed guy pushed him in an UGLY fight.

[SkillsSoSmooth]

Did the extremely talented Darnell jiles Jr fight on the card tonight?, as he was scheduled to fight today against a tough unbeaten prospect.

[Boxing Tees]

He did. They fought to a draw. It was a great fight. Both guys were solid on offense. Both also ate quite a few shots. Jiles had the better head movement. The other guy appeared to be a little stronger.

Thanks for the info, not too happy with the draw but it was always a risk getting in there with an unbeaten youngster, i hope Darnell learns from this because imo he's got huge potential.

[IntentionalButt]

Man, I fell asleep like four hours ago. :lol: :patsch

Apparently I didn't miss a whole hell of a lot though, if this was as bad as I'm hearing. :deal

Does Kassim really look like he should hang 'em up?

[C Money]

Jiles has been sparring with Spat and is decent. He needs to be more cognizant of his D and both guy's showed spirit. I'm a tad disappointed that Jiles dint use his range more. would have been easier and netted a W instead of a Draw.

Credit his opponent who's lesser skill was supplanted by bigger heart and will.

He looked like a name thats very beatable at this point. He's been through too much and isnt a half of what he was.:good

[aceshigh]

Ouma just does not look like he really wants to fight anymore.

He was way to happy after loosing.

[Chileno606]

Kassim looked DONE 4 fights ago. I saw him fading and getting shot a long time ago. I dont think he has been the same since Karmazin whipped him.

[huki]

Ouma is in a strange situation. I don't think he's shot, he just seems to have lost all of the motivation and passion he had for boxing. He lost the drive he had and it's sad to see him putting up such a bad performance on an ESPN main event. He should either focus on boxing 100% or retire. A few years ago he would have blew Bundrage out. Today, he came in like he didn't care about winning and only showed that old Ouma energy in very short spurts.

Ouma has money now, lives in an expensive home and drives a Benz CL500. The motivation to train and fight is gone. He's officially been Americanized.

The worst part is this means we're going to see more of Bundrage. :twisted:

I thought Julio had gotten rid of the shitsack for me. :cry:

[klion22]

Was anyone else impressed with this Jiles or Giles kid? He was only 19 but he fights like a vet. I'm going to be keeping on eye on him.

[jamel]

Was anyone else impressed with this Jiles or Giles kid? He was only 19 but he fights like a vet. I'm going to be keeping on eye on him. he was quite good the guy he fought looked tougher and heavier hitter so I quite liked both but yeah Giles did have better boxing skills.
This was the best fight on the card and both fighters may go on to better things. Ouma was very disappointing and Bundrage was quite limited although did start to jab and move to wards the end and it seemed as if Ouma just resigned himself to a lacklustre points defeat. When the decision was being announced he didnt even seem bothered.

Ouma is done. First he's losing to no names on Telemundo, now he's losing to a guy who just got knocked out by Joel Julio. This guy once beat Sechew Powell. It's been downhill since then.
