Capitol Heights, MD super middleweight Henry "Sugar Poo" Buchanan used a stunning body-head combination to stop Decatur, GA's Brian "The Assassin" Norman in the ninth round tonight at the Playboy Mansion in Beverly Hills, CA in front of a nationally-televised ESPN2 audience.
Buchanan steadily gained control of the bout before ending the contest with a brutal left hand to the body and right to the head that dropped Norman against the ropes. Referee Lou Moret stopped the bout at 1:02 of the ninth.
With the win, Buchanan is now 17-1, 12 KO's. Norman falls to 16-8, four KO's. This was the second time Buchanan has stopped Norman. Buchanan scored a third-round TKO over Norman in September of 2004 in Glen Burnie, MD.
A few complaints, but a VERY solid performance by Buchanan, and a NICE TKO to finish it.
ReplyDeleteDigital, 2 questions:
1) How were you scoring it? I had Buchanan winning all but the third round.
2) Do you think it warranted a stoppage? Norman seemed like he wanted to continue, and seemed like he could've.
HE WAS OUTTA THERE..BODY SHOT AND UPPERCUT WAS BEAUTIFUL..GOOD JOB POO..U STILL PLAY 2 MUCH THOUGH..LOL..ARSENAL
ReplyDeleteI think Buchanan was winning from the third round on. It was a steady, methodical performance.
ReplyDeleteI also think the stoppage was good, because Norman was being worn down and that was a nice combo by Buchanan.
First off, Congratulations Poo. That was a good win in front of a national audience.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of anyone else who looks like he's having as much fun as Poo while he's boxing. You make it look good boy!
You do still play too much though... LOL!
