Post Fght Analysis: Devon Alexander vs Shawn Porter: Porter by UD;

   Shawn Porter brought the biggest upset on this weekend of upsets by defeating Devon Alexander by unanimous decision on last Saturday night in Barclays Center, New York. All three judges scored 115-113, 116-112, 116-112 for Porter.  Porter left arena with Alexanders IBF welterweight title. 
 

   I mean this was a big surprise for me and for a lot of boxing fans and experts. Porter came to the fight as a big underdog without any big names in his record, but he managed to dominate Devon Alexander who looked very poor that night.

   All this fight was a big mystery for me.

   I mean Devon Alexander is a southpaw and usually it is very hard to land your jabs against the southpaw fighters. And Shawn Porter is not the one that has a perfect jab. But that jab was landing so much that it was unbelievable for me.

   From the start Shawn Porter decided to go inside as a machine and I believe Alexander wasn't expecting that to happen. He went inside and landed his big shots to the body and head. And for Alexander it was a surprise. Alexander can land good counter-punches but for some reason he was fighting strange brawl.....

Post Fight Analysis: austin Trout vs Erislandy Lara: LAra by UD;

   Austin Trout suffered the second straight loss last Saturday night in Barclays Center, New York against very talented boxer from Cuba Erislandy Lara. Trout lost this fight by unanimous decision. Judges scored 109-118, 110-117,110-117 for Lara. It wasn't the total destruction of the Trout like it can look from the score cards. But Trout was outboxed in almost every round. And he was also dropped on round 11, but he managed to get up and continue. 
 

   Erislandy Lara won the vacant WBA World light middleweight title and now he is looking for some big name next. But I really doubt anyone from major players will be interested in facing Lara next. It is not because Lara is very dangerous, it is because he is very talented counter-puncher boxer and very hard opponent to fight against.

   I mean this win over Austin Trout was another very unimpressive fight to watch. Austin Trout went forward for all 12 rounds using his jab to the body, and Lara was moving backwards all the time and 2-3 times in the round connecting his one-two. And it was for all 12 rounds.....

Boxing Prediction: Guillermo Rigondeaux vs Joseph Agbeko: 2013-12-07, USA

   Very talented undefeated 33 years old Guillermo "The Jackal" Rigondeaux (12-0-0(8 KO) rated number 1 in Cuba and number 1 in the world will face 33 years old former IBF bamtamweight champion Joseph "King Kong" Agbeko (29-4-0(22 KO) rated number 1 in Ghana and number 32 in the world on this Saturday, December 7 in Boardwalk Hall, Atlantic City, USA. This will be a title defense fight for Rigondeaux.  WBA Super World super bantamweight title and WBO super bantamweight title at stake.
 

   Guillermo Rigondeaux comes to this fight after his impressive win against Nonito Donaire(31-1) by unanimous decision on April this year. Before that he won against Robert Marroquin(22-1) also by unanimous decision on September last year.

   Joseph Agbeko comes to this fight after his win against  Luis Melendez(34-8-1) by unanimous decision on March this year. Before that he lost second time in a rematch fight against Abner Mares(22-0-1) by unanimous decision on  the end of 2011.

   Rigondeaux is one of the best fighters in the world, also he is one of the most avoided fighters for now. He was planning to have a fight against some big name but no one was interested. Also he doesn't have a big fan base because he is not a puncher, but a pure boxer and his fights are not so entertaining to watch...

Post fight Analysis: Adonis Stevenson vs tony Bellew: Stevenson by TKO round 6

   
   Adonis "Superman" Stevenson(23-1-0(20 KO) made an impressive title defense last Saturday against only once defeated Tony Bellew from the UK. Adonis dominated all the fight and stopped Tony on the end of round 6. It was the second title defense fight for Stevenson. Two months ago on his first title defense he stopped Tavoris Cloud on the 7th round of one sided fight. Stevenson made a great performance and I am very interested whom he will face next. Carl Froch, Bernard Hopkins or maybe unbeaten Sergey Kovalev?
 

  From the first round Bellew took absolutely wrong tactics against hard hitting Stevenson. He decided to fight as number two boxer and was running all night from Stevenson. He decided to catch Stevenson on counters. I mean it was so wrong because Stevenson is 100% outside fighter. He felt like a fish in the ocean. Instead of using his height advantage Tony was running all night long. 

  All five rounds went in the same manner. Stevenson was chasing Bellew and landing his jab to the body and his big left hand to the head from time to time. Bellew also had his moments, he was able to land some very nice punches on counter and also some beautiful overhands, but Stevenson took all those punches very well. Maybe those punches could have a greater effect, but Bellew landed then very rare. He lost all first five rounds by my score card....

Post fight Analysis: Sergey Kovalev vs Ismayl Sillakh: Kovalev by KO round 2;

   Unbeaten Russian knockout machine Sergey "Krusher" Kovalev(23-0-1(21 KO) stays unbeaten after a very impressive KO round 2 win against very fast but poor chin Ismayl Sillakh. Kovalev successfuly defended his WBO light heavyweight title. It was his first title defense after he took this title from at that time unbeaten Nathan Cleverly on August this year. With such impressive wins Kovalev is rising very fast. After this brutal victory he is thinking about some big name next. He is willing to face Adonis Stevenson who destroyed Tony Bellew by TKO round 6 the same night. I was hoping this fight to go for some more rounds as I like both fighters, but Kovalev is just a monster.
 

   I mean round 1 was as I expected. Sillakh was moving a lot. He was much faster then Kovalev as was able to land some nice punches in fact. He moved a lot, went very fast in and out. Landed his combinations. But once when Kovalev was able to land his big shot I saw Ismayl hurt a little. But he came back fast and finished the round. I mean I like Kovalev very much but I believe Sillakh was a little bit better on that round. So I gave first round for Sillakh...
