12/07/24 DAZN: Liam Paro vs Richardson Hitchins (IBF Super Lightweight Title)

[chunky_mcdaniels]

Brooklyn got a world champion again

Who was the last champion from Brooklyn?

Jacobs?

I'm talking legit belts too, eg . none of Berlangas inter-continental stuff.

 

[chunky_mcdaniels]

nah GK the perfect first defense Win for Hitchens lol

Yeah thats basically Haney v Kambosos 3.

135 / 140 is crazy like that. If you outsized in reach to the opponent than you aren't shyt basically now that I think about it.

 

[kaldurahm]

140 is fukked. Hopefully we get some unification bouts soon

Teofimo Lopez is from Brooklyn... unfortunately lol

 

[UpAndComing]

Before Teofimo, the last Brooklyn champion would have to be either Danny Jabobs or Zab Judah

Good performance from Hitchins, I think most ppl had him getting KTFO in this fight.
Got to view him different now. Has a frame that can move up to higher weights too

Just saw Jalil Hackett lost his fight. I'm going to go back and watch it.

Do ya'll agree with the decision?

I missed this but I got a question.

IBF had the 10-pound limit for this, but in Janibek's last fight they used a weight percentage limit of 7.5%.

Do they pick and choose based on something specific?

I picked Hitchins to win but I was surprised at so many people saying he was gonna lose or get ktfo even that I was wondering if I was just plain wrong about him. I didn’t see what everyone else saw. Once the first bell rang I felt pretty confident. A boxer like him is a headache to fight.

did you see his fight with lemos?

 

[surv2syn]

did you see his fight with lemos?

No. Only highlights. I know this is what people were basing their opinions on, me not seeing that fight I didn’t have that same bias.

Yeah I completely underestimated Hitchins size and reach, he made Paro look like a runt at 140. Styles make fights sure, but Paro couldn't get near him for shyt.
