It seems like everybody I know who was there thinks Parker lost, it certainly didn't seem that way from the TV. Close fight but Parker won fair and square in my opinion.
I'm wondering if the commentary had any influence. I can only call it the way I saw it. Dennys for breaky then heading home so I will have another watch later tonight. Everyone in the arena was worried by what they were seeing. Takam should have sat down between rounds. Bad mistake and he may have had more left in the last couple of rounds.
Yeah a lot of boxers actually thought Takam won (and not just the ones like Junior Fa who was in takams camp). I just saw it as a good close fight but would have been shocked had it gone the frenchmans way. How was the overall night though mate? Worth the dough? I lovedNik the Greeks post fight ring interview. 'I lost that fight' and 'he should have got the decision'. You dont hear that honesty very much in boxing nowadays. I know some very well respected boxing people who think Nik still won that fight, i cant see it myself I had 3 rounds all but with the knockdown 57-56 Kwadjo.
I thought Niks reaction after the fight was one of the highlights of the night " Interview the other guy hes the winner" . Good on him , Nik looked underdone with the short notice, I thought Kwadjo won
Buttabean losing to a young novice was a pleasing result. Its all about helping people lose weight now ..gimme a break .
Its embarrassing that Duco champion a guy to fight beginners every fight on a big stage . Oh well.
The people I watched the fight with thought Takam won . I actually thought my bet on a draw was a good chance for a minute .
Josephs inexperience at world level got exposed but its probably the best case scenario for it to happen how it did.
He showed heart and found a way to win it
The reality check showed him he still has a lot to learn but hes young enough to still improve
Whether he has the power to compete with really big boys the likes of Klitschko or Fury , is a worry though
