@ATBF: Dear host could you be so kind to find and post a video of this fight again. Thank you
posted, enjoy!-)
Me too Tango. I had to quit watching in the 8th round.
Even Dailymotion is down. Which is pretty crappy when it was aired on free tv. What goes through these peoples minds?
Thanks for finding the video.
Finally got to watch the last 4 rounds.
This fight was not as close.
Relikh was busier but hitting gloves and arms dosen’t win you the round. Though the commentators seem to think so.
Litterally I had it 1 sided.
Rd 1 I had 9-9
Note scored the 5th 8-10 for Relikh
Scored 8th 10-9 for Bart. Relikh had won the round but the KD.
Rest were for Barthlemey.
So 118-109.
Commentators – LOL
I scored the fight 116-111 Relikh.
No need to explain anything I think.
I agree with your assessment of the 8th.
None of them is at Indongo’s level anyway.
117-109!?
it was a close fight for crying out loud. Unbelievable.
Good scrap glad the rematch has been ordered
