Spence v. Crawford

That was a great ass fight last night. Crawford is one clean, composed, and patient boxer on offense and defense. I can’t believe Spence withstood those punches in the midst of being unsteady & losing power in his own punches. That damn jab from Bud is deadly.

#whathot #djblaze #onthewatch It’s All About @tbudcrawford vs @avanesyan_david #fightnight #boxing #crawfordavanesyan #welterweight Blaze-The night in particular was an exciting event leading up to the showdown that Terence closed out in emphaptic fashion. I witnessed a man who hadn’t fought in over 13 months showing no rust whatsoever when he systematically broke down his opponent round by round, never looking rattled or bothered by Avanesyan’s aggression at times. Terence was cool and calm and in control, patiently waiting for the right opportunity to close it out at his own will. As much as Avanesyan tried to deter Terence by landing a few good shots, none of them affected “Bud” inside that squared circle. No disrespect to Avanesyan who is a tough competitor and fresh off six straight knockout wins, but when faced with an elite combatant in Crawford, David was levels below the reach.That said, when “Bud” was done toying with Avanesyan he shut the whole show down in a dramatic fashion with a well-placed left uppercut-right hook combination that sat Avanesyan down for the count in the 6th round forcing the referee to call an end to the bout.With this resounding win Terence has now defended his WBO Welterweight Championship Belt for the sixth time and recorded his 10th straight knockout. Pound-for-Pound one of the best to ever do it inside that squared circle, Hands Down!Congratulations Terence, you did your city proud on this one. 🔥👆🏿🥊 #soundtrackoftheday #hiphop #rnb #music 🎶🔊🎶🔥👉🏿Blazinone.com For All The #boxingfans #basketball #sports #fans #cigar #smokers #musiclovers #pressplay 🔊🎶🔥Enjoy the #sundayvibes #blazinone https://www.instagram.com/p/CmC9qMnrTV_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Rocky Graziano grew up as a street fighter and learned to look after himself before he could read or write. His father kept boxing gloves around the house and encouraged Rocky and his brothers to fight one another. When he was three years old, his father would make Rocky and his brother, Joe (three years his senior), fight almost every night. He spent years in reform school, jail and Catholic protectories. At age 18 Rocky won the Metropolitan A.A.U. welterweight championship.

As an American professional boxer and actor who held the World Middleweight title, Graziano is considered one of the greatest knockout artists in boxing history, often displaying the capacity to take his opponent out with a single punch. He was ranked 23rd on The Ring magazine list of the greatest punchers of all time. He fought many of the best middleweights of the era including Sugar Ray Robinson. He was the subject of the 1956 film, Somebody Up There Likes Me, based on his 1955 autobiography, starring Paul Newman as Graziano.

Born Thomas Rocco Barbella on January 1, 1919 in New York City and died on May 22, 1990 in New York City at the age of 71.
