[@florinstoica701]

Meciuri adevărate pe vremuri cu Leonard al nostru in prim plan.

[@taylorpage9458]

Well Paul be grateful with the draw because the Romanian guy was few classes above you and honestly have not see that style of fighting and I guess is true when they said that east European fighters are trained to fight for all the rounds while most fighters including here in US are trained for knockouts which works only sometimes but when you run into a fighting machine like those guys as we can see in this fight where you struggle to make it to the end of each round that guy looked like was just starting.

[@vasilenicolae7744]

Judges for Panama and another American which said 14 14 they steal the victory from the Romania boxer. Was a clearly victory form Dorin but they take away a lot of work and days of training..... I don't believe that they was watching the same fight... how watch the fight between Dorin vs Paul they know that there its only 1 champ for the WBA and IBF unification and this is LEONARD DORIN DOROFTEI

[@larrysaunders9781]

It really won't a steall

[@markmessi9020]

What are you taking about? The greatest boxer ever is Mayweather who can go all 12 rounds and back easy. He's not looking for the knockout at all

[@vladmoraru9384]

Yes in Romania we are training for all rounds, the coach is not grateful with KO!

[@1cugine359]

Obviously not if it was a draw. Also tell me who's more bloody at the end?

[@chrissnatchko7795]

I was at his fight in Paul’s luxury suite, I’ll never forget it, these guys were beating the piss out of each other. So many punches thrown every round.

[@henrichvonstaufenberg4841]

Dorin clearly won that match

[@kooswolf2975]

Leonard Dorin was the real winner..But seems that boxing mafia doesn't want that..So they draw it...Sad ..Sad for boxing..Sad for a boxer that works hard for that.

[@buddyacesmxbc1055]

Spadafora was making him miss he was landing good shots but Paul was making him walk into combos and when Dorin was throwing combos he was missing and hitting gloves although he was aggressive pushing Paul back he wasn't doing much besides pushing him back.

[@costinrazvanflorea4186]

L-a bătut Doroftei, însă e clar ca lumina zilei că arbitrii erau cumpărați de către echipa lui Spadafora. Americanul trebuia doar să rămână în picioare pentru a-și păstra centura.

[@GetoDac]

si-a batut joc de el , a ingenuncheat toata america cand a CAZUT EL LA PAMANT 🤣

[@matthewbell4173]

Great fight

[@mihaig8904]

Adevărată bătaie, cel mai bun boxer român 🤜

[@canucklehead11]

First time I watched this and I thought Dorin won. If only he was a couple inches taller he could have been a really great fighter, very tough guy.

[@buddyacesmxbc1055]

You say that without explaining why so it doesn't make you right

[@K9boxing]

Paul was a good fighter could have been a hall of famer 2 many distractions

[@charlesweiny429]

What a shame, he had tremendous heart, skill, and talent.

[@alexalexio6119]

Leonard Dorin was better than Paul

[@alexalexio6119]

@Shane Wallace Dorin was better look again at the match idiot !

[@buddyacesmxbc1055]

​@@alexalexio6119I'll say he was stronger than Paul but not more skilled

[@darnellhopkins8587]

Nah.. Spaddy lost.. Good fight though bro... Spadafora threw great body blows

[@buddyacesmxbc1055]

He dropped Dorin in the 4th they called it a slip bunk

[@rameshhansaravendra]

--- Floyd would have heated him 120-108 on all 3 scorecards

[@crisprodigy8098]

Larry always shit himself ! They gave a draw to avoid a crowd rage !!

[@chrissnatchko7795]

I was there. In spadaforas personal luxury suite. I knew his photographer so I always got the best tickets. Believe me when I say, there was a crowd rage in the parking lot.

[@JP18729]

Oh how I miss HBO Boxing.

[@simba30]

A real terrific fight great skills and heart I agree with the decision

[@neeraj9411600186]

See Dorin vs Spadafora - actual card 116-112 but gives draw.. Manny vs Flyod- actual Manny 115-113 but gave to flyod..judges biased

[@IIxTCxII]

What are you talking about? Floyd easily beat Manny and won more rounds/landed more punches, Manny got outboxed. Paul nearly lost every single round and was getting beaten up, you can’t compare those fights. 😂

[@juanchohitdalotto]

Manny lost that fight lol, closer than it seemed, but he still clearly lost.

[@mjsully86]

Good fight. I remember when Gatti fought Dorin he landed a killer body shot that ended the show. The good old days!

[@mihaipapazicu730]

Lucky punch!!!

[@tribuna239]

Dorin won this fight

[@coop8756]

Apparently not dummy

[@jetsrule4life]

I had it 116-112 Spadafora

[@youngman7600]

Crowd thought Spadafora won but the fight stats say otherwise

[@nickmad887]

thanks

[@mihaibalais8864]

commentators who can't, or won't, recognise greatness in boxing are the reason boxing is less and less of a sport, and more and more a show for money - soon with none to pay for. Those crooked judges don't even deserve to be acknowledged. Sold and paid for nobodies.

[@pukulu]

yep, a draw. Neither fighter was hurt during the fight. Dorin landed more punches but they did not have much of an effect on Spadafora.

[@coloursandviewsromania7766]

Leonard win .....draw? wtf

[@buddyacesmxbc1055]

They couldn't keep up

[@klanduex7440]

spadafora lost this fight convincingly

[@vasilenicolae7744]

Obviously...if Dorin was a US boxer they give unanimous decision but because he's Romanian boxer they took away the right to be the champ of WBA and IBF unification.... what a shame for the judges. ..... the judges from Panama he declared Paul the winner by 15 14...... he was watching the right fight????? Another AMERICAN judge declared draw..... serious?? Wasn't at least one round draw.....but he declared draw in 12 round...... Very shameful for the professional boxing. They deserve to take away their judge license those 2 judges who destroy years of training and hard work....boxer he was training an hardworking for those moments all the life. Sacrifice. ...stay away from the family in a training stage's and a lot of others sacrifice and those mother fuckers judges took away all of your work and yyears of work and sacrifice in a second

[@GetoDac]

ROMANIA KNEELED AMERICA WHEN IT FELL TO THE GROUND 🤣🤣🤣

[@MoiseGEORGE-c9r]

Ia aratat box 🥊 adevarat

[@qkeith5071]

Dorin was robbed I had it 116 to 112 , Spadafora

[@robpitzer8121]

The Pittsburgh kid is extremely fast and has an awesome uppercut.

[@adrianmitrut5411]

Inima de leu 🦁

[@BobCat623923]

Gatti would have walked through Spadafora's punches had they fought.

[@alainbellemare2168]

yep

[@qkeith5071]

With Ease

[@MoiseGEORGE-c9r]

La spărt Dorin pe spadafora ia dat la pumni de la cârpit trebuia să-i de-a victoria lui dar nu a procedat corect atunci sa prefăcut că este egal și Dorin de fapt la dominat in ring pe spadafora

[@joeytrimble1558]

During kicked his ass

[@joeytrimble1558]

Dorin

[@GetoDac]

as a ROMANIAN 🤣 i laugh and laugh and laugh ...at the end of 3rd round he didn`t want to punch gloves 🤣 again at 6 round after running all round 🤣 he was running all fight 🤣 anyway ...america is lucky that Dorin didn`t start to fight for real , he was expecting 6-7 more rounds hahahahaha

[@danpricop6670]

...doar prin ko putea castiga clar,...un neinvins trebuie facut preş,doar asa arbitrii îi dadeau victoria. Dorin nu loveste combinat,e stereotip,...trei lovituri de control urmate de un ciocan,e cu totul alt efect. Un pumn dat bine,pune la pamant pe oricine. Boxul e o țopaiala ieftină,arbitrii te amețesc in pauze,ingrasarea porcului in ziua de Craciun. Daca ti'e frica sa dai un ciocan,vei primi două.

[@robertgarcia2102]

Mayweather would have beat the breaks off spadafora I think he lost this fight he never really fought anybody his boxrec is full of b level fighter's

[@epic6434]

What kinda hair moose do you use? It's messing with your cavesa

[@J4sse]

How did y'all score it?

[@larrysaunders9781]

Stop count at 7th it 3 2 2d spadafora

[@MoiseGEORGE-c9r]

😂😂😂

[@larrysaunders9781]

Anybody saying he lost didn't watch the fight correctly

[@alainbellemare2168]

he lost , i was there, Spadafora kind of admitted it by offering Dorin a rematch in Montreal
