Week Five Review

The Fights

Only three fights this week, Karl Place's opponent dropped out late on, adding to Danny Williams' withdrawal earlier in the week. In the fights that did happen, Jason Booth learned the lesson that you can't go on for ever, the younger Scott Quigg really did a job on him and his career looks to be over, certainly at super bantamweight. It comes to us all eventually. In the other fights, Donaire earned a shut-out 3 x 120-108 unanimous decision, confirming his lofty P4P ranking, and Marco Huck KO'ed his opponent in 6.

The Premiership

A fantastic week for compelling and rich, who managed to get all three fights spot on, earning himself 12 points, a big jump up the table to finish in 4th place, and of course a Predictor of the Week award.

It was the same old story for Knowsit17, the Prediction League's perennial choker once again failing to hold on to a lead when it matters, a measly 4 points drops him to a 3rd place finish. Second place went to sodhat, a case of ever the bridesmaid never the bride for our Prediction Cup runner-up.

Top of the tree though is Eyetoldyouso, our new champion claiming his title with an impressive 10 point haul. I am sure you will all join me in congratulating our new champ.



It's not all happiness and joy though, as alma, Michaels, ian_jamsie, JJJohnson and, believe it or not, Union Cane have all been relegated from the Premiership.

The Championship

School Project becomes the first Championship Champion, a nine point haul this week propelling him to the top. Dass, Jdandfries and 88Chris05 will all join him in next season's Premiership, however there is drama surrounding the fifth promotion place, with 6oldenbhoy and ermietrude tied on 29 points. They can't be separated by the Highest Weekly Score criteria, both having high-scores of 9 points, so a play-off will be required. Details below...

*Update*

The Play-Offs couldn't separate 6oldenbhoy and ermietrude, so given the exceptional circumstances, I have decided that Season 3's Premiership will have 21 places, they are both promoted.

Sorry for the late post UC, hope it's not a problem.

Think it's ok until the fights start.

Low scoring week this week with a couple of upsets.

I find it unacceptable thought that Union hasn't got the results updated, the Russian result isn't on boxrec so one can only assume it was cancelled.

This is turning into a face Union, i'm writing a complaint to David Cameron.... If he's able to sort our mess of a country (thanks labour) out then i'm pretty sure he can fix this shambles.

How dare he have a personal life at the weekends! What a bar steward!!!

He moved house, did say that last week, if you paid attention you'd know that.

Agreed Balti.

It never ceases to amaze me how many people on here actually take the time to find out how many points they have got over the weekend. Unless I have watched the fight, I am perfectly happy to wait for Union to update it, not scrawl through boxrec or other sites for the results of some mickey mouse fight somewhere in the world. Lighten up guys, it's a free to enter, internet based competition with no actual prizes (no offense Union, hope the house move went well).

Well he never PM'd me about it. WHY WASN'T I KEPT IN THE LOOP?!?

Because you're an irrelevance?

Same here. I admit I did actually try checking the results but I wasn't too impressed and didn't bother with the rest. The results weren't on Boxrec (see-it's not as useless as some make out) and that was as far as I could be bothered to check.

Morning Gents

As mentioned above I have been off work since last Wednesday moving house and without internet access or anything. I'm back at work this morning, so once I've caught up here I'll be trawling through all this and updating it as soon as I can.

It's good to know I was missed...

Used up and cast aside, just like Churchill in '45.

ps: the temptation to reply with a 'your wife doesn't think so' type remark was IMMENSE.

Why wasn't there a PM? I don't read every single post and to be honest, he should've gone to the trouble of getting an admin to email every single member advising of his abscence.

I got a PM, would appear you and Balti were simply not considered worthy

I'll be writing to the European Court of Human Rights about this!!

rowley wrote:I got a PM, would appear you and Balti were simply not considered worthy

I only had one PM and that was Steffie rubbing it in about the world cup. As long as 'they' don't win it then all will be well.

Union on the other hand has let himself, his family and much more importantly me and Balti down.

Anyone seen the Sukhotsky result? Im still on for 4 / 4

I can only find this...

"Le français Nadjib Mohammedi (24-3-0) s’est incliné par jet de l’éponge au deuxième round contre le russe Dmitry Sukhotsky (18-1-0) hier soir, au Typhoon Club de Saint Petersburg. Le combat mettait en jeu le titre WBO Inter-Continental des poids mi-lourds. Le français Mohammedi a été touché par une méchante droite de Sukhotsky et n’a pas su récupéré après l’entame vers le 3éme round. Avec cette défaite, Mohammedi s’éloigne d’une revanche contre l’anglais Nathan Cleverly (22-0-0) qui l’actuel champion WBO de la catégorie, car le vainqueur de ce combat abitent le droit être le challengeur obligatoire de ce titre. En décembre dernier, le français avait perdu sa conquête de ce titre mondial contre Cleverly dans une défaite aux points."

...which translates as....

"French Nadjib Mohammedi (24-3-0) was inclined by jet of sponge to the second round against Russian Dmitry Sukhotsky (18-1-0) yesterday evening, in Typhoon Club of Petersburg Saint. The combat brought into play title WBO Inter-Continental of the light heavyweights. French Mohammedi was touched by a malicious line of Sukhotsky and did not know not recovered after starts towards the 3rd round. With this defeat, Mohammedi moves away from a revenge against English Nathan Cleverly (22-0-0) who it current champion WBO of the category, because the winner of this combat abitent the right being the obligatory challenger of this title. Last December, French had lost his conquest of this world title against Cleverly in a defeat at the points."

http://tout-sur-la-boxe.net/?p=16213

I will take that as a Sukhotsky KO in the 3rd.

EKO for Sukhotsky apparently. Towel thrown in during the second round.

I found this. My poor grasp of French I make it an EKO for Sokhotsky. Just checking with the missus.

Le Russe Dmitry Sukhotsky (30 ans ; 1,81 m ; 18 victoires, dont 13 avant la limite, 1 échec), tenant du titre des poids mi-lourds de la World Boxing Organisation Intercontinental et numéro un de la même entité, a conservé sa ceinture en battant par jet de l’éponge dans le deuxième round le Français Nadjib Mohammedi (26 ans ; 1,81 m ; 24 succès, dont 12 expéditifs, 3 revers), samedi à Saint-Pétersbourg (Russie). Le Gardannais a été touché de plein fouet par une méchante droite.

Take your time Union, no need to rush me back up there

The Russian Dmitry Sukhotsky (30yrs old, 1m81, 18 victories of which 13 before the end of the match,) holder of the middle weight title of the World Intercontinental Boxing Org and number 1 of the same org, has held his belt by beating French boxer Nadjib Mohammedi (26yrs….) in the second round by stoppage on Saturday in St Petersburg (Russia).
The French boxer was beaten by a full force nasty right hook.
