BKB..... A NEW INTENSE CLOSE RANGE FORM OF BOXING IN ITS SECOND VISIT TO THE MANDALAY BAY EVENTS CENTER....THIS BOXING WITH NO ROPES, IN A CIRLCE DESIGNED TO PRODUCE MORE KNOCKOUTS AND HEIGHTENED BOXING ACTION !
IT DOES...
9 MATCHES ON THE CARD..... 5 CHAMPIONSHIP FIGHTS ...SEVEN ROUNDERS IN FRONT OF A NICE CROWD FOR PPV AND 4 FIVE ROUNDERS.... SOME COMPETITIVE FIGHTS.
THE FIGHT RECORDS WEB SITE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THIS EVENT IN REGULAR BOXING STATISTICS...WON-LOSS ...ETC...IT IS IMPERATIVE TO SEE THEM FOR YOUR PERSONAL RECORD KEEPING.....PROMOTERS NEED TO ESTABLISH RECORDS...RELEASES AND FUTURE CARD INFORMATION WITHT THE MEDIA TO ESTABLISH CONTINUITY AND RECORDS.
ALL FIGHTERS BOXED WITH SENSORS INSIDE THEIR GLOVES TO MEASURE PUNCHING POWER AND VELOCITY....HOW THIS IS READ AND SCORED STILL A MYSTERY.
GABE ROSADO AND CURTIS STEVENS.... AT 160.... FOUGHT TO A DRAW IN THE MAIN EVENT....HARD TO VISION A DRAW IN AN ODD NUMBERED ROUND FIGHT...DO THE MATH...MAYBE EVEN ROUNDS OR ROUND......LAS VEGAN LYLA MCCARTER WON THE WOMENS LIGHT WEIGHT TITLE WITH A SEVENTH ROUND KNOCKOUT OVER DIANA PRAZAK.
WITH ONLY TWO CARDS THE RECORDS OF THE FIGHTERS IN THIS SPORT ARE YET TO BE CREDITED WITH ANY HISTORY.
FLASHING LIGHTS IN THE EYES OF THE FANS A BIG NEGATIVE TO THIS OTHERWISE UP COMING PRODUCTION....
HOPING FOR MORE OF THIS POTENTIALLY LASTING NEW FORM OF BOXING.
