[@peropero2307]

Nah... I truly feel bad for the guy in blue... Boxing is way too corrupt. Low blow 2 times excessive holding 2-3 times and in the end guy in blue just threw him to the ground... just bullshit... and commentators are way too shit as well. The guy in blue literally kick his mouth gourd out two times, and he loses... hahahaha FUCK BOXING!!!
