    Love Lewis but you know when you're backing him you're going on him KOing his opponent so the 13/8 for the finish would be the bet (I wouldnt back him this fight). We know he's going to gas, he's just back from knee surgery so any running or bike work he did do before has likely reduced even more. His grappling is poor and his back is ****ed.

    I'd avoid but hope he lands that right hand

    Ivanov in his last two fights has looked so bad to me. Really think Lewis is a class above here.

    Some sick finishes and the likes of Corey and the lad who beat arlovski may not even get a bonus, same goes for shabazyan

    Lee surely will after that

    They should be rewarding a few more fighters

    This should be the best Lewis we've seen

    Even had someone living with him cooking him healthy stuff 😂

    Still fancy Lewis for the KO after that round. Openings are there, lovely short elbow from the clinch too up against the cage.

    I honestly cant remember any of Ivanov's fights but I'm always wary of backing Lewis as he gets some hail mary wins.

    But physically Lewis looks better than before

    Ivanov has some chin

    Credit to Blagoy, he’s tough as nails. Lewis fighting a lot smarter now than he once did, very much like Yoel Romero and his quick bursts of violence followed by a rest.

    Ivanov has some chin. Hard to score that second round, two takedown for Ivanov but he took some big shots.

    Really good fight so far!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,149 ✭✭✭mangobob


    Jeebus what a throw. That must be like flipping a rhino.

    Fun fight. It's slow paced for so long and then bursts of madness!

    Pretty fun fight for a heavyweight contest that went the distance. I’d give it to Lewis 29-28.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,081 ✭✭✭Fromvert


    This is a sloppy tough fight to call. Lewis is getting the decision since I said he's not a guy to win decisions


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,149 ✭✭✭mangobob


    I have no idea who won that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,047 ✭✭✭Jamiekelly


    You could call it a draw and I think no one would complain.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,808 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    Has to be Lewis

    Good scrap


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,332 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Diaz by ko/tko
    The correct decision, this interview should be good!


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,145 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    Had no idea how to score that but neither did the judges evidently.

    Good fight


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,479 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Judges all over the place in that fight, no surprise there, very difficult to score even though I had Lewis edging all three rounds.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,348 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    I'd say Lewis, great first 2 rounds third was rather dull. Good chin on Blagov, Arlovski prob be knocked out 15 times over in that ha.

    not awkward at all .. LOL


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    Much closer than I though it would be.

    That mofo can take a punch!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,056 ✭✭✭darced


    Honestly thought Lewis lost there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,385 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    DId you all see that Valentina is not blonde anymore?!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    Holding out hope for an old school Wonderboy spectacular KO here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,385 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    Is it just me or does Wonserboy seem leaner than usual?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,348 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    DId you all see that Valentina is not blonde anymore?!!

    Looking fine so she is


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,884 ✭✭✭SlowBlowin


    DId you all see that Valentina is not blonde anymore?!!

    Yes, I though she looked good..


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,081 ✭✭✭Fromvert


    I think Wonderboy takes this, big step up for Luque
