Great scrap, there were some real bombs thrown. Janssen is pretty ridiculous.

Great fight, rights then lefts then rights then lefts. Gotta love it when they both can throw them like that.

I'd give a slight edge to Barch which is surprising because he's an awful fighter.

He really is, but I think he only got the edge for once because he fought the only player in the league that actually enjoys getting punched in the face repeatedly, lol.

Seriously? Janssen landed several more solid punches and bloodied him. And the grand effect was that it gave the Blues life to score a goal right after a poor start. More damage and morale.

Both landed some good shots. The cut def made Janssen look better. Give an edge to Barch.

barch started bleeding after a glancing blow. as razor mentioned, it was a previous cut that was reopened. great bout regardless of who won it, but i give barch the edge as well. and the stars won

Really great scrap. Best of the year so far IMO.

Barch with the edge. Controlled the fight a bit more i thought and landed more, though he did eat some good ones. The cut definitely made Janssen look better but he ate too many for him to take the W.

That was a good ol punch in the face contest.

 

[Frolov 6'3]

Great scrap indeed, Barch suprisingly won.

Fight reminds me of Downey (Blues) vs. Vandermeer (Chicago) from some years ago.

 

[Mickey Redmond*]

I gotta call that one a draw, they both got in some pretty good shots.

I tend to agree, Janssen did a lot of Ali-style talking and preening but didn't back it up very well. Barch with the edge.
