I don't know I can't say that I ever saw a referee tell two boxers you can't trash talk. To the point where you try to bring them in and stop them. Referee you are paid to make sure it's a clean match you are not paid to moderate. And the people pay to hear this kind of stuff whether it's the press conference or it's in the ring. It was definitely some favoritism for Rocha because he just beat up Blair cobbs. But rashidi is not Blair he was putting them paws all over him from round one. I just had to go back and hear the referee really try to stop rashidi from getting in his head that's part of boxing the mental game if you took the mental game out of sports all together it would be boring as hell

Ellis never pushed this guy, never came forward, always on his back foot, stood one place waiting to be punched so he can counter, allowed this boy to push him around and dictate the pace, keeps getting hit to the body, always backing to the ropes and getting hit. Just cant control and dictate the pace of the fight,did not jab enough. Always waiting to counter. He could ve done better if he pushed this little boy ,jabbed more and go to his body. He needs to grow up and learn. His counter was good but thats not enough.

@@alteetrustno1dog The highlights here don't do him justice, which is why they look like what they do. The full fights on dailymotion with dazn commentsry and it's more clear Rocha's pressure wasn't as effective as these highlights suggest. That wasn't to say though Rocha couldn't do anything, he definitely had his spots and he put up a great effort. Think Rashidi would do himself a huge favor mixing it up on the inside, he just has to start believing more in his chin like Ennis does. Everyone's gonna get hit, it's part of the sport, but mentality and chin are things that are underappreciated these days

[@gordonferrar7782]

He's a bum all flashy flurry's and nothing of substance. Good fighters don't allow themselves to be walked down. As for his jab again it flicking and quick but doesn't follow up. You can just flick with the jab because even when you land it if you don't follow up and back out and get drilled with a the opponent's back hand even if the back hand doesn't land it will get scored as affective aggression. This reminded me of Meldrick Taylor Vs Cesar Chavez except Taylor was landing 2s and 3s not 1s and 2s. Elliz won't go anywhere if he doesn't step into his punches those are the facts. This is pro boxing not amateurs.

ELLIS doesn't have enough power or stamina to keep boots off his ass 1 good body shot from boots he hurt

[@jgyrwa]

I don’t understand why black fighters keep allowing these Mexican pressure fighters with no skills, push them into the corner, so they can flurry with punches, since they can’t outbox them in center of ring. The center ring is the weak spot of most Mexican fighters, including Clenelo.

[@trifeylo]

mainly to set traps and counter then slip out.. its a small ring, and mexican fighters are pressure fighters which takes alot of stamina to keep off.. You'd either have to keep punching to keep him off or move feet more. To conserve some energy fighters tend to keep moving back and counter as the aggression presents openings to counter
