ReplyDeleteDigital, what did you think about the commentators (Tessitore?) saying that Hemphill didn't know how to win (or was it how to finish).
That's pretty much the case with Andre, unfortunately. He is a guy who, when facing better competition, does peter out at times. He gets tired.
ReplyDeleteHemphill's got good speed and power, got a good repertoire of punches... but can't seem to put together even a double jab, a great tool used by many winning fighters.
