Looks like Matias-Ponce for the IBF 140 title may happen after all...

elvis rodriguez v joseph adorno just about to start

Freddie Roach still going. Man. Good crowd there. Already getting restless with a round of all jabs.

Well well... let's score that first round even. :D

On aside, I can't quite figure out that Adorno beard style. Rodriquez going for the Menace to Society 'O_Dog' look. Things beginning to open up in 3rd.

FINALLY... a little bit of sustained action at the end of the 4th. Adorno with the slight edge, I think.

One of these guys is going to need to decide on commitment. Little bit of keep away stab jabs and pose from Adorno. Rodriquez prodding and nervous energy but hesitant to walk thru the door. Oh nice little exchange to end 4th finally.

i've got adorno ahead by one point after five rounds

that should have been a knockdown against elvis, joseph landing some good shots in the sixth

It has become a full-fledged fight in the 6th. ;D

Nice exchanges by both guys. Adorno should stay off the ropes.

Adorno good 6th. Nice 1-2 from Rodriquez at last minute mark. Replay looked like a high hook dropped Elvis. Farhood does not like Adorno ;D

:o ohh beautiful right hook from Elvis! Had Adorno out on feet

joseph down in the seventh, looked hurt but fought back well to survive the round

Alright!! What a 7th round! That left hook almost got Adorno out of there. How he survived is beyond me. AND... he's still dangerous. He hit back with some good shots of his own.
Tremendous round!!

Awesome 7th. Good things take time :-X. Rodriquez needs to force the shoot out, now or never.

Like Rodriquez in gritty 8th. Adorno telling ref of headbutt after sliding with another right hook bomb.
