Sutherby landed the only meaningful punch. Decision goes to Sutherby.

Fight could have been better if they got a chance to square off... Rupp gets the edge with some good shots early.

Sutherby seems completely not interested most of the fight. He's totally content holding on and avoiding damage, up until the last right by Rupp which seems to piss him off.

After that the uppercut Sutherby threw looked to have some anger attached. The annoucer said he hurt his hand, but he was just shaking the elbow pad from what I saw. He wanted to unload a couple more of that shizzle!

I would never try and compare B. Sutherby to the All Time Great (I said Great, not Greatest) Dave Brown, but thats what I thought about after watching that punch a few times. It had nasty written all over it, I bet he was thinking about that punch for awhile after it was over. The fight was far from great but oh "what if" that punch would of hit it's target. Might of been a Great (I said great, not Greatest) ending.

Watch Rupp VS Coburn. He's not an established fighter, but he can fight.

Rupp threw alot more puches, but didn't connect the way Sutherby did on that uppercut. Not to mention if you look closly Sutherby's index and ring fingers were taped together. therefore Sutherby has this one.

was that fight played in super slow motion? i hope the camra had tech difficultys and made that fight look slower then it was or i have to say - Crap Fight and YAWN

Ho hum, 1 decent punch in the fight, pretty blah.

I don't know what meaningful punch you were talking about. You mean the uppercut that hurt Sutherby's hand?!? Rupp landed a few, but yeah...it's a draw. Hugfest.

As for Rupp not dropping gloves...were you not watching? Who started it? I mean...is he supposed to turtle Sean Avery style? He may not be the most skilled fighter but at least he dropped them...

OK

Rupp is a *****, he shouldn't be dropping gloves, he can't fight.
