JESUS after watching round 1 i wish i could take this bet back if barrett is going to fight the entire fight like this (just winging haymakers trying to KO Valuev, which will result in him getting killed) I thought he'd use a little intelligence my god.... his style better change comin out for round two.... he cant back up straight geez
Edit: Round 2 a little better, but he's still just throwing wild shots.... use ur head man ??
Edit Round 3.... much better and the type of fight i expected... a lot of clinching, barrett ducking under valuev's slow right hand and a 1-2 grab 1-2 grab type fight.... and much less crazy shots
Round 4 done -- a few more crazy shots thrown , and barrett is telegraphing his big shots tremendously.(and connecting a few....lol) more jab and grab boxing would be nice... 5 more rounds to go till the 10th
Round 5 done -- Valuev hit Barrett flush with a right cross and Barrett took it fairly well. 4 more
Round 6 done -- Barrett connects with a HUGE left hook flush Valuev took it well. Three big crosses for Valuev, all taken well. Exchange of powershots both taken.... Barrett going into the corner/agaimst the ropes too much though.... 3 more rounds till the 10th
Round 7 done -- nothing much in terms of damage (valuev did land a few good right crosses) but barrett is starting to look VERY tired.... he needs to get a wind before some BS will knock him out Im concerned about how he looks in round 8
Round 8 -- Valuev nails a HUGE right hand which stunned Barrett (the ropes may have saved him from going down). Barrett lands a big left hand cross from southpaw position which snaps Valuev's head back. Barrett knocked down on a punch which barely hit him.... it seems to be off balance/ from being exhausted. He finished the round with a few shots though... barrett isnt/wasnt hurt, but he's tired... one more round to go
Round 9 -- Both trade shots. Barrett lands several left hooks flush, Valuev returns counter right hands... Round over... round 10 = Win
Round 11 -- Barrett Knocked down 2x, corner stopped the fight although he got back up... good over under 9.5 =)
