Sum up #RodriguezEdwards in ONE word 👇
Pish
Excellent
Gobby
Brilliant
Levels.
Ain’t shy of giving interviews after a bad loss which most boxers don’t.. highly commend him for that, that’s what true character is
Wouldn’t say it was a bad loss, just got beat by the #1 in the division in a good competitive fight
@@n223lfc it was due to him getting badly injured facially and he was taking some heavy shots, plus his belt was on the line, so in that respect it’s a bad loss for sunny
Lol he was talking a lot of bs, making serious false accusations before the fight. He quit on the stool, threw in the towel. Yes, he has a lot of character 😂 😂 😂
They usually are scheduled and get paid for these interviews.
@michaelgarcia2440 no there not and no they aren't. Main broadcaster yes but not utoob outlets🤦
You can never knock someone for taking a tough fight. Great effort
This was meant to be a tall order for Bam too according to some Sunny fans
Sunny would have my respect if it wasn’t for the classless trash talk before the fight. For all the talk he did before the fight, he quit on the stool, threw in the towel. Maybe he should’ve focused more on boxing and less on talking
@@516Melyou must be confused his corner pulled him out and there was no stool in his corner 😂😂
He could have won easy if he just didn’t engage
@@JamieLowe-xp1lehe quit 🤡
He showed a lot of courage and took the loss like a man. Respect.
Courage? He gave up in his corner.
Also took a beating!🤷
@@Jh19999👨🏻🦳
@jameshackett6771 his team stopped it to save him for another day he didn't give up at all
Definitely. He said a lot of stuff to build up the fight.. but he was gracious in defeat and admitted the better man won
Respect sunny. Was always gonna be a tall order. But that eye damage from round 2 made it impossible unfortunately. He took his licks like a man and fought fire with fire. Nothing more can ask of a fighter. Respect sunny
This guys got heart.. we seen fighters quit from getting a broken eye socket, never mind fighting through it , getting knocked down and getting back up.. I rate sunny even more now
He quit you casual 😂 He threw in the towel. Looks like Sunny got a nice serving of humble pie 😂
@@516Mel casual? Sure 👍🏾
@@516Mel He was actually retired by his corner. Huge difference between a fighter quitting and their corner throwing in the towel
Looked like his corner and rightly so raises the towel. Regardless, even if he quit it was the right decision going forward. No shame in that.
@francis-vg8uy mate u probably quit getting punched once never mind getting a black eye
A true gentleman and sportsman, a credit to yourself and your team. Being able to give an honest interview after the first loss is highly commendable. Sunny you are an absolute star and done superb.
Quitter
@@melindanunez9903true
Much respect for Edwards for the professional way he has handled himself after the loss. Mexicn (US) and UK fans have a good boxing rivalry going. Sometimes we win, sometimes you win. Viva Gran Britania, cabrones! 🇲🇽
Most of the time. Like 9 out of 10. Mexican wins
From a British fan , love the Mexican fighters, they don’t run, and they have produced some top quality fighters over the years , Viva Mexico 🥊🥊
@@freddykay1645 Actually, the Brits win most of them. Not only that, but Mexicans are fighting Brits when they're mostly inactive, or making sure they're at their worst by other methods like draining by contract or not giving a full training camp. Under those conditions, you lose most of the time. Only Spence has beaten Ugas under those conditions when it comes to Americans and Mexicans. Every other time they have lost. It's why Americans and Mexicans go after those fights all the time. They're intentionally picking them and running away from active opponents. You only need to look over the last 4 years or so to see how extreme it is. Before this, Mexicans were getting beaten up nearly every single time.
I'd be happy to list all the wins if you want and prove it. It will be a lot more than your list.
@@freddykay16456 of the times it was just against Canelo.
@@seablock You guys have had your recent run with your fighters being pregnant, eating eggs and such, don’t act like you don’t got dirt on your hand, oh no,no,no
Bam was exceptional but credit to Sunny he showed a lot of heart !
100% even though he lost I rate him more than I did b4.. this was a throwback fight to where many guys back then would fight to the death! Maximum heart was shown, proud of him
As an American I notice British fighters never make excuses and still give interviews after a loss. Most American fighters don't after a loss
Sure you’re American 😂
US young boxing fans came into the sport as casuals via Floyd
What about BJS??? 🤔
Never heard of David Haye then
Fury doesn’t. Fury is a disgrace.
Sunny will always have a career after boxing. His punditry work is one of the best.
Wasn't a fan but now I'm a fan. What a warrior!
Much respect to that man.
Sunny proved himself to be a warrior during the fight and a true sportsman after it. He did himself proud over there.
Warrior? He gave up in his corner
@@Jh19999 I'm not into insulting people online, as a rule, but that is an idiotic comment.
He showed heart in the interview and gave up in the ring lol
@@Jh19999Yes he quit on his stool. I seen when he leaned in to his cornerman then the corner waved it off immediately. That was smart of sunny to live to fight another day even though quitting is not a part of some cultures 🤷🏻♂️
Bam is the warrior who fought to the end with a jaw that was broken in to different locations. That’s admirable, that a true sportsman. Baby Sunny gets a sinner and quits. He quit, you it, we all know it.
He showed that warrior spirit that I didn’t know he had. His stock has risen in my opinion
I am fan of this guy, never saw him fight before but the way he presented himself in this fight, he made a fan out of me. I hope they run it back. Hopefully for undisputed if he gets one of the other titles. His name is out there now. Great Job Sunny, no shame! Plus he is incredibly entertaining! A lost can make you train and focus to get better and I believe he will, fight him again Sunny!!
In the rematch if he can box better with better defence and not get caught like he did in the one defo possible he could beat him after he got clipped in the 2nd in his eye I knew it was over for him
@@JamesBond-is3lg 😂😂😂
He's not humble.
He got humbled.
Ha.
Uk cant never compite wit us!
Guy went out on his shield big respect.
He quit in the corner
lol. on his shield, he quit, he`s a quitter.
He threw in the towel, quit on the stool. Respect 😂
You people don't realise what a trainers there for to protect his fighters and train his fighters "he quit" "he quit" all because some bunch of idiots want to see someone go out on there shields and potentially die bunch of fools
@@516Mel sonny the quitter.
Now that's what I called being humbled, the noise that came off that uppercut and reaction was all she wrote, fair play to him for not quitting that face plant at the end 🙊
Taking his loss like a man and made no excuses can’t knock that.
He told his corner to stop the fight so he did quit
@@randomas5565no he didn’t
@@GrizzlyAdams101 sure did. Yup that face plant, he ate canvas last night 😂
@grizzlyAdams101
Now that I've seen what i've seen Sunny quit 100%
He showed a lot of heart n courage and is a good example to other boxers to dig in when it gets tough. It was a good stoppage from the Corner. Bams a special fighter, especially for someone so young he's achieved a lot. Looking forward to following his career.
It’s nice to see him covering his face and looking like a quiet kid as well as getting a nice taste of humble pie.
Tough fella. Much respect to him. He took a lot of very big shots and never stopped trying to win. Always tried to respond even after been hit with big shots.
Humility. He said bad things against Rodriguez
They both did about eachother, now there’s respect that’s what matters
Eh just a little bit . Neither one of them took it overboard
@@tombuckton2335 The excuses 😂
Great to see champs fighting champs this is what boxing needs
I was there live, wasn’t a fan of Edwards but he gave it his all. He took tremendous shots and proved how durable he was. Kept trying to get his momentum. Bam’s pressure was too much.
"Darth Edwards" 💀
Great interview.
Huge love bro looking forward to your return.
Big up Sunny you did yourself and the UK proud, next level effort, straight warrior heart. A minor setback for a major comeback 💯
Always thought it would be a tough fight for Sunny just because of Bam’s superior punching power, but he’s gone up in my estimation, I thought he handled himself really well in defeat - no shame in loosing to another great fighter - I hope he heals up and comes back stronger.
The power makes the difference at the highest level. Sunny had a cap gun and Bam had an assault rifle.
Bam is superior in every way, Sunny is world class but Bam a level above him.
@@melindanunez9903 No doubt they’re both elite level fighters. I thought Sunny fought the wrong fight (perhaps due to Bams power and damage caused in the second round)
What a bad ass fight. 💪🏼🔥🔥 thanks for a great show.
Back better and stronger. Well done to both.
He fought Bam's fight & got KO'd. Unbelievable that Bam nullified Sunny's elusive style with ease and with devastating results. Bam is going to be in great fights ahead!
Dude exactly. Why was he holding his feet from round 1 I don't understand.
The tome he needed to be mobile and elusive he was holding his feet
@@AzH1988UKsunny said that he tried running around the ring. Or boxing but Bam was too good
@@AzH1988UKtbf when he did move his feet bam closed him down very well he's pretty good at cutting off the ring but saying that I think Edwards fought emotionally
@@Keepitoriginalministry no he said after the fight he didn't run because bams feet was too good and his lead hand
So he didn't even try
He had to bro. He would’ve lost on points if he hadve tried to move away all night and in fairness Bams style would’ve made it very difficult. I say he deserves a lot of credit for throwing caution to the wind and rolling the dice and fighting to win.
The era of the 0 is at last starting to leave boxing, the quicker it goes the better. Sunny dared to be great, 🫡 respect! I’m sure it’s not the end of Showtime Edwards 👊✌️.
Im a bam fan but now that I've heard about Edwards I am also a fan of him. He's got style and character and not afraid to take a tough fight.
Was there live! Was a great experience and Sunny is a class act through and through.
Im not trolling just my opinion and Sunny won't be back stronger, Sunny won't be the same again in there
Sunny really brought the fight. It was excellent to watch
I notice he's a lot quieter than he was in the pre fight presser...
showing great class in his loss and put on a good fight despite coming up short. cant belive he not only stayed in the ring to give praise to bam in the moment, but still giving interviews at 5am! what a boss. see you on the tube again soon!
That UK eye resistance
Great fight, props to Sunny he was right in there until the 7th but Bam came on too strong
I like the heart u showed bro! Made me a follower.
Thanks to both guys for a terrific fight to watch.. Edwards an absolute warrior and bam Rodriguez is just absolutely phenomenal.. 🥊
Well done sunny you took your loss like a man 👍 you will be back
I was Rooting for my country man sunny but congrats to Bam 🇲🇽 🇺🇸
I'm from the same country as well but I didn't root for Sunny because of how he was running his mouth and accused his opponent of taking drugs etc. He got what he deserved. Kudos for his maturity after the fight apologizing but he said a lot.
Love him or hate him Sunny has showed his class both in the ring and in defeat. It says one thing about a fighter when they take the hardest fights possible, but to then still act with class in defeat, stay in the ring, give no excuses, carry out all his media obligations and giving his HONEST opinion throughout.. that needs to be commended and boxing need more personalities like Sunny Edwards in the sport.
(Dont forget few weeks ago a certain Heavyweight champ didn’t attend a press conference because they were afraid of being asked hard questions and being criticized)
Nothing but respect for this warrior! You made a huge fan out of me. Showed a ton of heart & grit. You made zero excuses and still give interviews even after a loss. I look forward to seeing you back in the ring. Keep that head up Champ!
Props for Sunny for showing having heart and giving grace and humility to Bam.
He did a lot of talking before the fight.
Even though he lost he fought well salute 🫡
Sunny Edwards has shown class, sportsmanship and his metal in defeat . I've no doubt this will make him as a fighter, not break him
Your boy has no heart. Talked a lot before the fight making serious baseless accusations only to have himself seriously humbled. I don’t remember the last time someone quit on the stool 😂 Of course he’s gonna change his tune after that devastating defeat 😂
@@516Mel 🎯
Humility=Clarity.
Bam is not a Game.
Massive respect to Sunny for the way he's handling this loss. Interview just hours after loosing a unification bout, you never see that these days. huge heart.
What a guy no excuses no nothing just says he was beat by the better man on the night and he admits how good bam was what a guy keep going sunny
He gave the excuse in conference meeting before the fight now it's time to pay.
@@AO.1328.exactly he give the excuse beforehand
Yea, all his excuses were before the fight 😂 you casuals are hilarious 😂
@@jamesirvine9541 Yes, like the scared boy he was 😂 He knew what was coming
@@516Mel I agree in that press conference he looked very figity and just talking nonsense whilst the other lad just looked ready
Is sunny in a trolley? 😂
I thought it was a baby crib.
@@boranbkk4270 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mad respect for this man, buddy got skills and heart.
I've often noticed the differences between losses in boxing and losses in MMA, the later not seeming to matter on someone's path to being a great, well remembered/respected fighter. I feel the attitude from Sunny here is the right way to go.
Why is he in a Babies Cott?
Sitting in a garden chair..so what
Because he fits comfortably in one
I thought it was a battered Walmart shopping cart for a minute... 😂
Showed a lot of guts but let’s ignore the talk of his corner stopping the fight. His team were getting him ready for rd10. If you look carefully, sunny asked for the fight to be stopped. He quit
He said, " I can't see "" it's brilliant being brave and ending up like Gerrarld McLenan,Michael Watson isn't it.
You've never stepped foot inside a professional ring ,talk about quitting man, sunny lives to fight another day with all his senses still intact. Until you've fought at world level yourself, you've no right to call someone a quitter . It's the hurt buisness if he wanted to quit he had an easy way out less than a minute before when he was face down on the canvas.
Why do people say things online that they wouldn't say to a fighters face
@@TORRES999ify he didn’t want to continue. He asked for the fight to be stopped. So he quit. I’m not questioning whether he should have continued or not. The bottom line is he quit. His corner had no intention to stop the fight. The reason he got back up is to save face. His story is that his corner pulled him. Stop getting emotional. Everyone can see what unfolded. I don’t need to be a pro boxer to state what I saw
@@TORRES999ify also, sunny was landing great combinations up until rd9. Crisp combinations too and did a decent job at avoiding several shots too. Don’t tell me he did that with an impaired vision
Well he its a great fighter and smart he show a lot and if he knew he coldnt beat him why take chances and destroy his career he didnt quit because he fought 10 harddddddd rounds so idk what you mean did you ever being in a ring before??! When you body don’t respond don’t respond period he was out he was hurt!
@@fillomojica6965 so you agree with me that he quit
He give it his best and showed huge heart and courage. You can't ask for more than that.
Great interview always good to be selfless it’s admirable
Well done Sunny, you're a total warrior. It was clear to see you were in pain between rounds and were taking big shots, but you answered the bell and answered back when under fire. Win or lose that was inspiring to watch, keep doing what you're doing, for me, you keep boxing interesting in and out of the ring! 💪🏻👍🏻
Yes, well done. Talked a lot before the fight only to get the living daylight beat out of him 😂 He quit on the stool, Threw in the towel. He sure is a total warrior 😂
@@516MelYes he told his trainer that he was Done. And his trainer told the referee. In which sunny made sure that it happened. Looking 👀 at his trainer and the referee the whole time. Being cool with the stoppage
You're being harsh, he was in there for a good few rounds more than he should've been. The power difference between Sunny and Bam was huge. As for the talking, yes he's got a mouth on him, he was unbeaten and is a good fighter so he's going to be confident. He took the loss and is being honest about what happened.
What's he supposed to do? Stay in there taking shots in a fight where he's doesn't have the power to turn it round, or suck it up and move on to fight again?
Did you see the instant look of desperation on his face evaporate as his trainer waved it off, little bitty rat eyes looking at his trainer. Bam fought with a jaw that was broken in two different locations, that’s a warrior, that’s admirable. Sunny gets a shiner and quits. He quit. Hell yes carry on but nope he quit.
Mad respect to sunny. What a warrior and didn't quit. He could of easily of stayed down wen he got put down. He's stock as truly risen especially with that eye injury
He quit on the stool Lol, so much for all that talking 😂
@@516Melyou clearly don’t know what your talking about, no quit in sunny he shown he’s a warrior, the corner had to pull him out or he’d of kept going
Ryder and Sunny, representing the heart of UK fighter's my respect from a US fight fan....I'll be staying tune for their next bout....
Sunny much Respect God Bless you and family 🙏 have a Merry Christmas and great new year
Good guy
It took his beating like a true warrior respect sunny 👏👏👏👍🇬🇧
Looks to me like Sonny actually quit. Watch moments before the stoppage, Sonny actually turned to his coach and said something in his ear before the coach stopped the fight. No knock on Sonny, he put on a great fight but he quit.
Great showing by both.
Accepting the loss and taking it in your stride takes true character. Sunny will be back. No shame in getting a loss on your record against the elite, especially with that level of performance.
Is Sunny sleeping in a shopping trolley?
Feels like a very honest, real interview, honouring his opponent.
You done him dirty with the thumbnail 😂😂
Could he have carried on? Answer is yes!! So does this mean sunny quit?
The doctor was pretty close to stopping it tbh his eye was bad and he was getting hurt more and then dropped so why take unnecessary beating. He wasn't gonna stop bam and he was way down on the cards so live to fight another day
@@theboxingboy7422 he quit!! He didn’t want to continue. So that means he quit
Respect to both men ! One thing to take away from this fight is that a hell of a lot of other fighters would never show such dignity in defeat ! Two top fighters getting it on and making it happen the rest of the boxing world should show respect to these two men of the smaller divisions that had the balls to talk the talk and walk the walk unlike these other goons that have excuse after excuse for Not making big fights happen ! If Sunny had a proper hard punch then this story might have had a different ending but some are blessed with power others have ring craft that others can only dream of ! Big up Sunny a new chapter now begins good luck in the future !
Much respect
Really expected a masterclass from sunny, great fight either way and Bam showed he’s an elite fighter. I hope they run it back some time down the line
He didn't use any lateral or elusive movement I just don't understand why he was so hit able from round 1
@AzH1988UK because he was fighting a great fighter and not some bum scraped off the streets
Not many people would have known about this division if it wasn't for sunny being so outspoken and bring the hype to it and then putting his heart and soul into a performance like that. You can't knock a man for putting it all on the line and bringing awareness to a division that many forgot about. One loss doesn't define you when you go against someone that is now top in the division. Sunny will clean up the rest of the division, get the rest of the belts and push on for greatness!
Plenty of people known about this division. Only the casuals that don't know.
Sunny ain't getting any of the other belts unless Dalakian or Martinez vacate theirs cos both would beat Edwards
@@sabretooth5404 This division gets no attention at all unless and the fights are always on the undercard and never main event. This division needs noise and Bams not a talker so depsite his boxing skills he can't sell a fight.
I knew it was over from the start. Golumn was never the same after succumbing to his precious ring
Can just tell he’s had his ego punched out of him poor little meerkat
Sunny’s loss has to be especially humiliating after all of the trash talking he did before the fight. He attempted to throw out serious unsubstantiated cheating claims towards Bam, which probably just fueled Bam to really beat the hell out of him. What a difference one day makes, he’s singing a whole different tune now 😂 😂 😂
Fight games the fight game if theres sometying you can use to throw at ur opposition before the fight use it most people wouldve gone home embarresed after this but hes sat there an gave bam his props after the fight sunny deserves big respect
What he said was a response to bam saying he’s quiet in person; prior to that his aim was to remain respectful; Bam poked- Sunny responded.
He sold the fight and went out on his shield. He gets nothing but respect from me
Chin up Sunny. Much respect for you for not hiding away after the defeat. Be proud of what you have accomplished so far and we all know there are many good days ahead for you!
He showed a lot of heart ❤️
Respect ✊ to both warriors!
Was a great fight 🥊🥊
Well done for not making excuses big love from Aus ❤
Never watched any of Sunny’s fights before this bam fight but he definitely won a new fan tonight great effort 💪 🇲🇽 🇺🇸
Respect to Sunny! Great interview especially after a tough loss. Shows what type of guy he is, can't question his heart and guile. Best of luck champ
Huge respect...had the courage to take on the best and gave it his all until it was impossible to carry on. Dignified response to losing too. A great example for the sport, which is refreshing to see against the backdrop of social media idiot hype-fights and heavyweights all avoiding each other.
Well done Sunny - one of my fav UK boxers for sure
Top man! Mad respect
He's very humble now
My respects to this MAN for this interview and everything he said. Hope all fighters had his humbleness.
He had the humbleness beat into him. Usually he's a loudmouth
Heart of a 🦁 I'm an even bigger fan than I was before well done pal and keep your chin up
Massive respect for Sunny! Not many fighters gain more fans from a loss! Humble in defeat and a put on a great show! Even more of a fan now! 🥊 warrior!
Edwards deserves all the respect he came up short fought bams fight he should of stuck to hit and move thats his bread and butter. Bam had the power all credit to him. A brilliant fight god bless both of you.
🙏
All credit goes to Sunny !!! He is very respectful and there is no quit in him. Went out on his shield.
Big time respect for this man, not his night but there will be others!
My boy gained a lot a new fans.. ima be following his career now
Nothing but respect! Great fight!!
In all honesty, this man's development of character is one to follow. Great dude all around, could very well be a comedian, and he put up a great and exciting fight!
Well done mate your a real man
