Any of you been watching WSB? Thoughts?

Also, why is Lomachenko doing semi-pro things like this and AIBA 'pro boxing' rather than just turning pro? Or is AIBA's pro thing going to be part of the rest of the pro ranks?

 

[JamieC]

Ye ive been really enjoying it, I imagine with the changes AIBA are making to the amateur game, these bouts are what the Olympics and ams will look like soon. They have amateur styles still but its entertaining

The AIBA pro thing, will be professional as far as I can gather but retain eligibility for the Olympics, and it will also be exclusive, eg no fighting pros outisde the system

McGoldrick takes the first by SD, Lomachenko vs Maxwell now!

Ukraine Otamans vs British Lionhearts (WSB)

On now.

 

[Wallet]

Not much action in the first. Right hook from Lomachenko which got the crowd's backing the best shot.

Lomachenko 10-9 up.

 

[Wallet]

Lomachenko more dominant in the second. Maxwell really struggling to find him.

 

[Chatty]

Maxwell looks like he has a fair size advantage, he should try and impose himself more.

 

[Chatty]

Lomachenko is just systematically breaking him down, great work to the body, making it look easy

 

[Wallet]

Very impressive from Lomachenko. Letting his hands go a little more now, hitting the long body of Maxwell and catching him with sharp right uppercuts and straight left hands.

30-27 Lomachenko on all 3 cards.

 

[Chatty]

Wish Vasyl would turn over - he could be a huge star

 

[Wallet]

All Lomachenko in the 4th. Maxwell taking a standing 8 at the end of the round.

40-35 Lomachenko.

 

[Wallet]

Lomachenko wins 50-44 on all 3 cards.

Olexandr Stretskyy vs Aston Brown at Middleweight on now.

 

[Wallet]

Stretskyy wins 49-46 on all 3 cards.

Most of our team tonight are Irish. Isn't there an Irish team? Wonder how they feel about being in the Brit team.

U can have different nationalities in any team though

 

[Wallet]

Isn't there an Irish team?

Nah there isn't.

The Irish lads have been representing foreign teams.

 

[Lunny]

Ah right, still seems odd.

Anyone planning on watching this later?

 

[Lunny]

Nah there isn't.

The Irish lads have been representing foreign teams.

Surely they've got enough to have their own team? Maybe next time I suppose...
