Garcia with the right idea throwing short left uppercut when Roach dips in. Both ring center, straight right for Roach. Garcia slightly cleaner in round and he clowns a bit at the bell. Someone between the two needs to take the wheel. Edge round Garcia, 4-4 even up now.
Garcia busier and better selection in 9th. Roach gets in choppy left hook. 5-4 Garcia. Again, very little to choose from here.
Both come alive late 10th hallelujah ;D. Roach bounces two short lefts off Garcia who turned awkward. Little more effective round Roach. 5-5
Roach explodes on ropes and Garcia is serious trouble. Actually hurt him center ring with right first. Hurt off left hook and lands follow up short right hook. Garcia gets off and tries to recoup behind jab. Best round for Roach there. Hopefully we get a shoot out 12th! Roach needs to mash the gas and leave nothing in the tank. 6-5 Roach
Garcia doing a lot of "magic hands" stuff. Just moving them weird just to do it. Oh nice straight left for him! Ohhh Garcia down into ropes face first off Roach right hand. Garcia up and hurt. Roach whipping left hooks and Garcia finishes the fight hands at waist at a dead stop just looking at Roach.
Have this 115-112 Roach new champ!
Scores in at 114-113 Roach...114-113 Garcia...116-111 Roach for a split win.
Ergashev v Matias up next. Nearly all expecting a war. Just going to enjoy this one.
Ergashev is massive in the shoulders! In general he looks a division bigger here :-X. He is rifling the left hand in on Matias and 'moving' him. Matias just catching and trying to set up but little offense.
Ergashev 2-0. Matias warming up late 2nd. Hands coming to life.
Matias 3rd. Ergashev visibly looking for clinch and is warned. 2-1 Ergashev
Ergashev buzzed in corner and beginning to reel when backing. Matias a two fisted ma'cheeen in 4th. Corner tells Matia to forget fighting southpaw. No idea about gas tank of Ergashev but the one he's showing isn't going to cut it. 2-2 but only in numbers
3-2 Matias. Ref checking Ergashev thru translator. Wth just like that it's called in the corner. Fight over! Said his leg was hurt??? Matias walked thru him and Ergashev felt the comfort of that stool. Matias tko 2 seconds into 6th.
Charlo vs Benavidez Jr now. Guessing Charlo is pushing Lt hvy vs a Jr middle by this point. He's basically declared he's moving to 168 next. Benavidez has zero to lose and should shoot his wad all out in the opening bell on Charlo who hasn't fought in 900 ? days.
