I don't believe even Freddie Roach is going to be able to turn Kayode into a world beater, but who knows, Roach is a great trainer.

No he is really for a fighter kinda nonathletic in a lot of ways. He can punch hard but he really doesnt use his hips very well. I really dont know how he hits that hard punching like he does.

I don't know if uncoordinated is the right word, but Kayode doesn't seem very fluid, and like I said, his boxing technique is horrible.

He has a shit ton of power but something is just not right with him. I can only say he is just a stiff.

**GrantZilla** Sat Feb 05, 2011 1:12 am

Now just throwing slaps and shoe shinning like all these AM fighters do

**Soonermark890** Sat Feb 05, 2011 1:13 am

What is going on tonight? Hatley looks like shit and draws with Chatman. Mora lost. Kayode lost but gets the decision and now Franco looks like crap right now.

**GrantZilla** Sat Feb 05, 2011 1:17 am

Franco sucks. Another Ivan Calderon type fighter

He is that type of fighter but he might have more power than Calderon. He is looking a lot better right now.

Franco is going to lose this fight. Being the favorite tonight is a disaster.

Guest Sat Feb 05, 2011 1:28 am

Franco's main problem is his lack of punching power.

Why AM boxing has ruined new age fighters. This guy got 400 AM fights and he doesn't even know how to do something basic like turn his punches over or leverage his shots. All he's doing is what all these AM fighters do, throw a bunch of slaps

They just made a great point that he has only been fighting professionally for a year and he will develop the power as he learns to change his style to adjust to the pros.

Right, and it makes for boring fucking fights that aren't worth watching. I hope this Mexican Miranda knocks him out.

Miranda should win, but the way it's been going tonight they'll probably give it to Franco or call it a draw..

Yep Franco won.

Franco wins a SD, figures.. g'night gents

All judges tonight should get a electric cattle prod shoved up their ass

**captainanddew** Sat Feb 05, 2011 9:19 am

didn't feel that great last night so I bailed after FNF. Watching the Kayode fight and I'm in round 10, how did he win? How did he win by such wide scores? The judges appeared to have filled out their scorecard before the fight began.

Kayode did somewhat better in the last half of the fight then he did the first part. I could see Kayode winning a close decision, like 95-94, but the other 2 score cards, 98-92, 97-93, were ridiculous.

Kayode has raw power, but little else, I believe Freddie Roach is trying to make a silk purse out of a sows ear.

+1

Ianuzzi and Miranda should of got the nod, both fighters showed these prospects what it takes to compete at the next level

Kayode was full of himself and got rocked a couple times, couldnt cut off the ring at all

Miranda just ripped Franco all night, he should of had a knockdown in his favor but the ref blew the call

Gumby Sat Feb 05, 2011 8:26 pm

Just saw both fights and was disappointed. Kayode's a robot and Franco's a dancer. If Kayode learns to keep his guard up and be active he'll be okay because he's strong, but there's way too much talent at featherweight for Franco to have any room.
