Best Damn Sports Show Period Card and PBP 8/18/05

[elgigante]

Feature Bout is Audley Harrison against Robert Wiggins. The card also features bouts with Andre Ward and Andre Dirrel, 2004 US Olympians. If the card starts at 8 PM like the previous ones, Ill do a PBP. Harrison is slowly stepping up his competition. Wiggins isnt superbly talented but should make for a game fight with Audley

im gonna miss the first bout of this so if anyone wants to do a PBP for it go ahead. If not ill recap it later

Round 1

Ward steps in, punches once....steps back for the remaining 2 minutes and 50 seconds...clowning quite alot. The crowd love it, as it reminds them of Roy Jones. The man who invented tap dancing, as a form of ring generalship. Apparently, you don't need to punch guys in the face to win rounds anymore.

Round 2

Looks eerily similar to round 1, only Wards opponent fall sover and is stopped.

Excellent performance.

My pleasure Elg. I go alright at this PbP stuff, even if its hard to make out from Australia.

from sherdog i got the result Harrison KO'd Wiggins in 4.Did He impress you at all Tam? And what is his next step up? Maybe Whitaker or Mccline?

[Tam-Tam]

Haha, I didn't see the fight or any of the card, bro. I was winging it :D

That said, unlike most people, I expected Harrison to fuck the shit out of Wiggins and stop him in pretty easy fashion. I'd have to see it to have a real opinion on it :P

Harrison bided his time and waited for an opening and in the process won the first two rounds and narrowly lost the 3rd round when Wiggins hit him with a few good shots. In the fourth he started to be more agressive with the left hand and he dropped Wiggins. Then he suddenly starts attacking and almost has Wiggins down again to end the round. The bout is stopped between rounds. Overall I like Harrisons jab and power but I dont like how he is so physically imposing but doesnt always use it to his advantage. Also he puuls straight back alot and a good puncher could exploit that. Time will tell with this guy. He has to be more agressive to beat the better guys out there.

is audley an adaptable enough guy that he could adjust to dealing with pressure fighters down the road? That sound like it could be his down fall
