Rechlicz really got the drop on Erskine with the first punch. Erskine got him back. Win Erskine.

Erskine win.

Never liked Erskine as an actual tough-guy (even second tier),
but I have to say, I gained a lot of respect for him in this fight.
Draw, but only because of the bad start and finish he had.
I really liked the way he waved off Rechlicz at the end, as they got up, and I was also impressed at how quickly the kid understood, and respected the call.

I was going to give it a draw there until I saw the replay and Rechlicz throwing for approximately 2 minutes before Erskine got his right glove off. He still came back strong though, and I'm giving him the edge, and calling it a 6.

Erskine landed the bigger shots. Good thing karma still has a place in hockey.

Good heavyweight tilt this kid Reichliz is going to be good but I give the slight edge to Erskine.

Rech with the drop on him but when squared off evenly Erskine handles him easily, W for the guy in red....

Obviously this was only a middle-weight bout since Lucic has fought Erskine and he never fights heavys...but oh wait, mcb789 is using this fight to state that the flyers and isles have THE BEST fighters in the NHL. Wait.....I'm confused.......

both guys landed good shots, so draw but points down for Rechlicz for starting firing cheap shots when Erskine had his glove on and held the stick. decision: edge Erskine

Nice recovery by Erskine after starting 10 seconds after Rech.

Come on people wake up will you! If Erskine wins this I mean you got to be crazy he was face down on the ice covering up as to not get killed by this kid Rechilicz.Erskine through some early punches but you got to be standing at the end to win!
Posted by Esjay1980 on Apr 02, 2009 at 8:06 AM agree disagree
Erskine wins easy for two reasons: Rechlicz started without him being ready, and Erskine landed more quality punches. Oh, and Rechlicz throws lefts like a girl..err, I mean like Mcb.

ok fight. ersk got the W for the first couple of shots. i like rechlicz as a fighter tho. he could compete with the best on a good night.

Have to give it to Erskine for that one big right hand that cracked Wrecker on the side of his face. Good fight and I wouldn't argue draw either but I think Erskine was throwing bigger bombs (although most missed).

THis Rechliz character is another Stortina..... starts crap but can't fight worth a damn.
