Fight of the night:) On my scorecards Drago
slightly won.
Maybe you're right, Chrzan_ko, what do you
think of the occasional openings in his guard?
I agree with Chrzan_ko. Great fight.... and Drago
should have won, or at least an extra
round.It's very sympathetic of the jury to give the win to Yuya, and make the audience happy. But I have not seen one round in which Yaya scored more than Drago. The only thing you could say in Yuya's favour, is that he was moving forward all the time.
This confirms the old complaint, that if you want to beat a Japanese opponent in Japan, it has to be by KO.
But I loved this battle between two great warriors.
Yes, I actually expected a draw, but the stamina of
Yamamoto! I would have never guessed that he would
try to outbox Drago! Bit controversial there, Drago
certainly scored more heavy fists, but Yamamoto was
constantly working and doing his fair share of
hits.
man its a shame what they do to make japanese
fighters enter the top if you dont deserve you dont
deserve drago surely won this fight but if they can
pull a japanese troug they will he wont be so lucky
against petrosyan do
but but.... you can say what you want he does fight
for it i just want to know does a round body kick
in the guard count as a point or not
Clear victory for Drago. Yamamoto was swinging
more, but Drago was hitting more. Most of the
Yamamoto's punches stayed on guard, plus Drago
used his hands and legs more equally and his
punches carried more powerI don't understand why there allways has to be some controversy in the judging
