Lewis was too far and slow 

[Chapo 104]

Lewis looked way too stressed and pressured even before it started. Not that it matters because Gane is way too good. This guy is gonna be untouchable for the next 5 years.

[Scraps 13747]

Lol Francis is gonna kill that dude

[Bill Brasky 1619]

Lewis fighting scared is so dumb.   He attempted almost zero offense

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

So Derrick Lewis is the gatekeeper of the heavyweight division. But I guess we already knew that. 

[BurdineBandit 823]

Lewis f'd around and found out. What a piss poor performance. And then he seemingly quit at the end.

The top 2 in the heavyweight division are not fat and slow and will not let him win the first two rounds off leg kicks and distance jabs. That was a hell of a style mismatch last night.

Yeah that last leg kick he took you could just see him looking for the exit. He got hit so squarely in the eye he was looking for an eye poke. Twice.  Not a good matchup for him  

i just don’t see him ever beating Frances, Gane, Stipe or Jones if he ever moves up and fights. But Lewis has a niche and he can earn money. He’ll always be a legend for “my balls was hot”

Gane is as big as Francis, is a better point fighter and thus will drag it out to a decision win.

Or gas him until he's ready to give up the neck.

I would think this is the gameplan, but my view is that "Francis is just as big as Gane" and wouldn't be as easy to hit with leg kicks and jabs as Lewis. That height/reach advantage won't be the same. So yeah good luck trying to keep Ngannou at bay with peppering shots. At least I hope.

[JohnnyRage 1617]

Here are the opening odds for the fight:

Francis Ngannou +110

Ciryl Gane -130

[JohnnyRage 1617]

Holy Shit. Not MMA, but Brendan Schaub

If one of y'all will loan me ten million dollars to bet on Francis, I'll split the winnings with ya.

Camera angle is kinda fucked, but prelims on ESPN2 now. Main on ESPN at 9, Cannonier/Gastelum is headline.

This pic is pretty good though. 

[Scraps 13747]

Clay guida lost...shocker

[shadow_operative2.0 16183]

Gotta love the 29-28, 28-29, 30-27 card too. 

[Scraps 13747]

Lameeeeeeeeee

[shadow_operative2.0 16183]

This was funny earlier, tall chick probably needs to find another line of work.

LOL at the Wall of Fame.

[JohnnyRage 1617]

So it's a little weird that the Surly boxing thread hasn't moved an inch over the Paul vs. Woodley mama drama. I mean the fight is interesting. I would never pay for it, but if it were on I would definitely try and watch it.

Does nobody want to legitimize the circus fight or how seemingly sparse boxing is these days?

Also weird to see Kevin Lee's name so far down a Fight Night card.

Boxing is dead. There's Tyson Fury and Canelo and that's it.

Fuck, and he taps in the 2nd

[BurdineBandit 823]

He worked hard and faltered in the 2nd. He looked decent with the hands but overall the wrestling and grappling of Battle was overwhelming. 

[TexArcher 38819]

Who's taking the main event?

I've got Giga.

[JohnnyRage 1617]

Nice matchup

[shadow_operative2.0 16183]

Drive home safely. 

[TexArcher 38819]

Man, Giga is impressive.

[JohnnyRage 1617]

Good stoppage.

[Scraps 13747]

I watched none of the Paul/Woodley fiasco, but seeing this morning that Woodley lost brings the LULZ

 

[smuggs 9394]

I'm too old to stay up past 10:15 on a Sunday night. Compubox has Woodley with 8 landed punches rounds 1-3. Jesus H.

 

[52-80 19374]

first 3 rounds he was doing the typical woodley cat pawing thing with his wrists facing forward.  i think his ego was afraid of getting KO'ed by a counter. 

then he had jake paul LITERALLY on the ropes.  if he was more aggressive in the 5th, 6th, or 7th, he could have easily put him away.  he was more fresh and walking paul down for the last half of the fight, but played Timid Woodley and never actually pulled the trigger. 

actually entertaining match.  dont think it was thrown because it fits the woodley mold perfectly.  though if he secures a rematch, then you could say it worked in his favor.
