Tony Yoka vs Carlos Takam *****SPOILERS!!!!!


Recommended Posts

--- Takam won a close split decision after busting up Yoka left eye and otherwise dominating him.

I scored it 8-0 with 2 Even for Takam. For a stout, muscly guy, Takam can't punch with power, but he's in his 40s now not expected to whoop the French Olympic darling. 

Net result is the well worn Takam back in the heavyweight sweepstakes perhaps with a title shot, the way it was this March 11th.

Take care with the coming Ides of March...

Yoka is PAINFULLY limited, I first saw that when he fought Milas. A guy who was coming off a year's layoff was making him look silly, boxing his ears off. But then he suddenly gassed and got stopped. Yoka is GARBAGE! All about size and power.

Ugh i think thats gonna be the last time i ever watch a Yoka fight. He's terrible. It's either his incapable or unwilling to throw punches. 

BTW was Takam injured at the end? Looked like he was in pain when the ref tried to lift his right arm as they announced him as the winner.

Still not watched this yet. Was it a good fight?

I recommend watching the highlights on Youtube.

 

While it was great to see Takam give one of the best fights of his life (PEDS, did you say? )   Yoka really stunk up the joint.  He fought cautious (and 1 dimensional) right to the end, even knowing that he had to be behind on the cards.   

 

Feh .....
