Dzevad Poturak v. Wendell Roche Fight Video

Here's one of the big fights from this past weekend's kickboxing action.  From the main event at Sarajevo Fight Night 2, this is #25 Dzevad Poturak v. Wendell Roche.  Poturak was coming in off his K-1 victory over Chalid Die Faust and was fighting in his hometown, while Roche had just beaten Stefan Leko 2 weeks earlier.

Immediately after the results were known, some questions were raised.  Take a look, and see what you think.

Watching this, I can definitely see where some people disagree with the result.  Personally, I have it as a draw 29-29, with Poturak taking round 1, Roche easily taking 2, and 3 going to a draw.  It's the kind of super close fight where I can't get too worked up about the result, but at the same time I would be interested to know how the judges scored it for Poturak.  Did they give him round 3?  Or did they call round 2 a draw? 

Result aside, this was a fun, if somewhat sloppy fight.  Poturak always brings the drama and theatrics, and I'm always entertained. 

Up next for Roche is a United Glory semi-final fight with Gokhan Saki, while Poturak has nothing currently scheduled.
