It was an exciting Saturday of boxing and host T.J. Rives and BigFightWeekend.com's insider, Dan Rafael are back on the maiden voyage of the "Fight Freaks Unite Recap Podcast" to discuss it all.
What did Dan think of Gennady Golovkin's TKO Middleweight title win early Saturday in Japan over Ryota Murata? And, now that Triple G cleared that hurdle, what are his prospects in a third bout with Canelo Alvarez?
Next, the guys discuss the Ryan Garcia Lightweight win in San Antonio over Ghanan Emmanuel Tagoe over 12 rounds. How did Ryan look to Dan and how much was influenced/taken away from his chances to score an impressive KO, etc. by the fact that Tagoe was really fighting but more in survival mode?
Finally, the fight of the week, at least in terms of action, was the Sebastian Fundora-Erickson Lubin brawl in Las Vegas Saturday night. That saw both fighters down and eventually Fundora stopping Lubin in the Jr. Middleweight contest after 9 rounds. What did Dan think of the performance by the unbeaten Fundora and did Lubin's veteran trainer do the right thing by him by going ahead and stopping the bout due to his facial swelling, etc.? Dan gives insight on that aspect and his thoughts on Fundora's fighting style at a massive 6'6" height for a Jr. Middleweight.
