Would you like to see a trilogy fight between Eersel and Holzken?
Of course, they are good fighters. .. the first to prove his superiority the second to overcome his two Clair deceptions
yes please!
There's a few times the Champ. frames off w/ a spin, or a right strait and does a good job of reacting to a left hook by rolling down w/ his head (i.e @3:30) Holzken's public enemy #1 being that left hook, I feel if Nieky would just react circle right (into the power side *after a big miss) instead of left Eersel drops that left hand for a cracking back leg kick, or a right upper/hook from Holzken, There a lot of room open on that left side of the Eersel body. I feel Nieky was looking for that left hook a bit too much. The reach of Eersel keeps shutting the former champ down. Incredible fight (I & II) (i.e @3:30) Holzken needs to go back before the ink and dig deep for Eersel, he needs to take chances, and get inside like a Zambidis or create angles like Petro would when he doesn't have the reach advantage. But Yes to a Eersel Holzken III! Call it "Crossroad Interment." lol
Yes please, ASAP !
fuck yeah!
"Regian EERSEL vs Cédric DOUMBÉ" would be great !
Eersel is so dynamic. Levels.
STARTING TO LIKE YOU EERSEL
The real of fighting 🤘💪
Great fights
That Knee @ 11:30
Very exciting to watch such fights. Ersel has outclassed Nicky in every aspect in the two fights : in terms of technicality, quickness, number of shots .... he will beat him illimitedly with the same details that distinguish each one of them.... Nicky stays passive waiting only for big shots when he fights against tough opponents
remind me of Dume vs Holzken
@@waisingfook4558 exactly
Regina got knocked out in the First fight...
@@lordvoldemort3209 even though
I do like Eersal a ton, but he does not hit or cause that much visible damage. He can combo like a MOFO but I expected more from him each fight.
Worth noting: In the first fight, Eersel & Nieky were roughly the same size, and although Eersel was faster & landed more, Nieky's power led to significant damage & made the fight competitive. In the rematch, Nieky had trimmed down & landed a lot more shots, and although it made them pop less, he still had his right hand & high kicks. Meanwhile, Eersel bulked up & didn't lose any speed, so his shots hurt more & Nieky's trimmed-down frame didn't do as much damage...
Oh i'm going nuts now that I mentioned it, Even when Nieky circles left in that final round, Eersel escapes to Nieky's right. Holzken attempts/ lands a left body shot Eersel always exits left to Holzken's right (Eersels right side is open a lot at times too, he's good switching *briefly into a square/ unorthodox stance just for a second or two) Nieky has got to look at the tapes again and crank it up if there's a third to make a stand against this man.
Doumbe vs Ersel will be very exciting
Watch Eersel's left side, He keeps guard but he's so tall it's loos on almost every leg kick/ Right power strait... Oh man I don't know if Nieky is getting too scared to miss... I think if it goes to a Third, and Nieky has any chance, he has to look at the opportunity to a longer torso & neck, and throw some tight overhand head shots.
as a coach, I see Holzken drop his right hand alot. someones gonna catch him unless his coach works on that weakness!

Is the experience of Nieky not good enough anymore? (i don't like looking at age, today we've seen so many over 30 keep dominating or accelerate like a Petrosyan etc. And... some don't) I'm happy for the Champ. well done!
Holzken past his prime. Years ago would have been different.
Anyone else notice in the second fight when nieky gets dropped the ref counts …. 2,4,5,6,7,8 lmao
That ref is aggressive
Nikki....you need to figure this one out... he has you down, and you don't knowhow to fight a younger you.
Nicky Holzkein is still my champ
I DO NOT RECOGNIZE THIS NIKKI.... HE IS NOT THE SAME.
Eersel dominated Holsken in both fights and almost all rounds so this is not called rivalry
Holzken knocks him out in the first fight
@@lordvoldemort3209 lol what fight are you saying
@@lordvoldemort3209 your saying about the Low blow
no blood, no fun
Such a boring style of fighting I've ever seen,... I wonder how they made it this far, with that boring style to fight, we had to prepare another drink to make it to the end.....so boring!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can't watch anymore goodbye, unsubscribing.....
