Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Triple header tomorrow night on Showtime. Like the match for names sake but these two are streaking in opposite lanes in terms of direction. Adames is hitting some momentum at 160 and Williams is coming up after back to back tough defeats and the ol beard looks like it's showing some cracks. Interim wbc belt up for grabs. Williams chin questions early and Adames stamina questions late. Fully expect J Rock to pool everything he has left and make a major push but unless Adames implodes in the moment his power and pressure should prove too much.
Fernando Daniel Martinez defends the ibf Super Fly strap vs Jade Bornea 18-0 from the Philippines. 'Pumita' is a fun fighter to watch. Erickson Lubin comes off a 2022 FOTY candidate and a very harsh tko loss and faces Luis Arias. Long layoff may benefit Lubin it'll be very interested to see how he looks.

Well... I don't do DAZN. So I'll be watching these fights tonight. ;D
Ready for some good boxing action.
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Martinez vs Bornea up first. :)
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Cheers Tito. Good to have a stacked weekend. Really don't know much of Bornea.
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Good first round. ;D I'd probably give Bornea the edge based on how he closed the round. Has the makings of a good fight. Love these little guys! ;D
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Like Martinez 1st, got close last minute with Bornea landing good body. But overall lot of his early work was caught on gloves.
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Is crazy to have the only title fight opening in 3rd slot. No respect for the little dudes :-X. Ioka beat Franco earlier in rematch but was it even picked up for air?
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Martinez doesn't throw punches like a guy who only has 8 knockouts in 15 fights. But then Argentines are known for their free-swinging, go-for-the-home-run style. ;D
Pretty even round, with the edge to Martinez. 1-1
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Carlos Adames looks exactly like Chris Colbert here ???. Like Martinez in 2nd it's heating up.
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Man... these rounds are so close. The 3rd I'd give to Bornea (2-1 Jade). But I could see it totally the other way.
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Better 3rd for Bornea answering in small combos to body on occasion.
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
I might as well be throwing darts at a scoreboard. ;D Gave Martinez the 4th. 2-2
Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Martinez managing to rifle in clean shots but they're singles. Closed strong coin flip round but edge to Bornea on sharp volume. Have it even up 2-2
Man I really hope J Rock can turn back the physical clock. Man is always a class down to Earth act

Re: Carlos Adames vs Julian Williams Showtime
Martinez getting up close physical to start 5th getting in punches. Bornea needs to stay on that body don't think he can go punch for punch with Martinez. Oh nice combo from Martinez backs Bornea off well end of round. 3-2
