Comments Thread For: Roach Upset: Ruslan Should've Had Three 10-8 Rounds

[Main Source]

So, he went from "I'm thinking about stopping this fight!" in the 9th round to "You need to knock him out to win!" in the 12th to "We won the fight!"...

Nah, Roach. Your guy lost. Move on.

Awesome ****. Im stealing this.

This is a KD whether you like it or not. Bradley can't even get up.

The only problem I have with this being a KD is that the punch that landed and actually hurt Tim is not in the gif. He was hurt but the punch landed like 5secs before he went down. No punch lands when he falls. He was out on his feet tho.

It was one of those fights where you couldn't be for sure who was going to get the nod. The right man won last night but I don't think Bradley will ever be the same after that...

[ETG]

yeah not at that second but he was still stumbling from being rocked and couldn't keep his balance. so was hatton's knockdown of castillo not a knockdown because no punch landed at that very second?

I'm not arguing with.... I would've had no real argument with a KD being ruled. Judgement call. But if you go by a punch being thrown that leads to a fighter falling its a KD...... No punch landed in this case. Judgment call tho.

Here's a video of what he thinks about the fight.



He said he has no problem with the decision but he also thinks that there 3 10-8 round for Rus.. He wasn't *****ing at all, so ya'll should relax! Geez!

I kinda of agree with Roach but even with 10-8 for those 3, I still think Ruslan lost. But even in the rounds Bradley was hurt, he was punching back hard and fighting back so that is why. Those rounds were not one-sided, it was just that Bradley was hurt. Either way is fine with me but Roach needs to retire. He couldn't buy a win for any of his fighters at this point. This is like 6-7 straight losses for all of his fighters, it is pretty terrible. But look at all they have in common, just offensive machines, no defense, no traps, no cutting off the ring, nada. If Ruslan was more skilled and trained with a better strategy he probably could have stopped Tim. He certainly would not have been hit so much but name a Roach fighter you cant hit as easy a the broad side of a barn lol. Zero. Roach knows absolutely nothing about defense whatsoever. Overwhelming offense is all he trains fighters on.

And that is why European fighters should not fight in USA. Simple as that.

For the first time I agree with Roach. People are going to say that it's rare to see a 10-8 round without a knockdown and I agree, but I think it shouldn't bee like that.
For me a boxer should be rewarded if he completely beats his opponent instead of just jabbing him for one whole round. It's not the same to hurt your opponent and give him a bad beating for over a minute, than just winning the round by a small margin.

For me round 1 was a 10-9 round, but I gave Ruslan the second round by 10-8 because Bradley received a bad beating, he was out on his feet for almost half of the round and was lucky to survive. That's more than enough to get him a 10-8 round.

Oh and I think it was in round 6 when Bradley was almost down but helped himself to stay up by using the ropes, that should've been a knockdown.

blah blah blah how can you cry wolf when one round earlier said he was going to stop the fight i dont think one 10 8 round changed fight completely from him saying he was going to stop the fight i call . your just tired of losing roach

lol this is like his 12th loss in a row he has bad luck or something
