Nice one Mikey... As a fellow diehard, I will be tuning in threw Fite TV this evening 🤔🥊👊👍

Impressed with David Rakhanaev starting his Professional Boxing debut against Ivan Murashkin this evening in Belarus at Super Middleweight... Rakhanaev and his team appear to be taking a calculated gamble on his debut and must certainly believe in his Boxing ability, in order to push him quickly up the Rankings in the Division, as Murashkin appears to have an half decent journeyman level record, as shown on Boxrec with 5 Wins, 2 by KO/TKO, including a KO early (1st Round), against a fighter who entered the bout 7 - 0 with 6 KO's early, 6 losses, only 1 Stoppage, which came late in a 6 Round Bout and the 1 Draw... Murashkin is also ranked 237 out of 1456 active Super Middleweight's so I don't expect this to be an easy first outing for Rakhanaev and it could get very interesting, proving to be a very competitive bout... 🤔🥊👊👍

@JayHyde3858 how do you see Sirotkin-Dennis?

Looks like Al Siesta, the Boxing Promoter putting on this evening's Pro Boxing Event in Belarus, has provided another golden opportunity to Asinia Byfield to push himself up the Super Welterweight Rankings, with a good test against a tough, durable Boxer / Puncher in Aleksei Evchenko, who is currently much higher in the Rankings than Byfield is... Evchenko is 37 now and after his last performance on a card in Belarus, showing his age in the squared circle... The last time Byfield fought was on a card in Belarus this past summer and he looked poor, which ultimately caused him to feel dejected throughout the fight and stop trying as hard as he could to try and win. He was outworked throughout the contest against a decent European level fighter, who simply wanted the W more than him, so this evening I expect Byfield to work his ass off to produce a decent performance and pick up an important Win, because the judges in Belarus will do him no favours, plus another loss this evening against Evchenko and he may as well right off his Pro Boxing Career, because it certainly won't be going anywhere!! For Britain Byfield, show some heart, determination, grit and desire 🇬🇧🤔🥊👊👍

Komar54321, I watched Sirotkin lose to John Ryder via 7th Round TKO the other year in a WBA Regional Title tilt... Meanwhile, the only time I have watched Grant Dennis was in a BT Sport Prizefighter Middleweight Event, where Dennis got to the final, but I think he lost to Okaze in what appeared to be a clear decision 3 Round loss in the end... Grant Dennis doesn't appear to have major natural punching power with only the 3 Stoppage Wins on his record and as he has progressed with his career, his points Wins have been close against fighters who aren't even British level... I expect Sirotkin to carry more fire power and pull away over the second half of the contest outworking Dennis, unless Grant Dennis as got himself into tremendous physical shape for the contest, which I doubt... Not sure whether Sirotkin can stop Dennis between 7 - 10, but based on past viewings, performances and overall Professional Boxing records, I definitely see Sirotkin pulling clear from midway to take a clear decision victory if it goes that far!! 🇬🇧🤔🥊👊👍

Question though, is it me, or does anyone else think that Aleksei Evchenko looks like a much smaller version of a Klitschko Brother... I have always thought he was related... 😁🤔🥊👊👍

I think Evchenko beats Byfield pretty clear to be honest. 

Mikey that wasn't my earlier question, but enjoyed watching the action with you buddy 🇵🇼🤓... Shame for the two Brits who were fighting on the card... Grant Dennis gave it is all but fell short towards the end of Round 8 to a big punch I don't think he saw until it hit him... Asinia Byfield meanwhile got a very generous decision from what I watched... I felt like the Russian got Robbed... In Belarus too... Asinia you've tried and fought for the British Title and getting a draw tonight after watching the fight live was a good result for you, even though I know you thought you Won 🤔... I recommend retirement, because you just don't have the Skills that pay the bills to make it to the Top, or for that matter to even give you a chance of winning the British Title... Shame, but honest 🤔👊👊🥊Grant Dennis, you will come again, because you Sir fight with passion, pride and ❤️... 🤔🇬🇧🏴👏🥊👊👍
