Going out on limb...I smell 'upset' :-X
Hunter looks really undersized compared to Franco. Hunter moving and lands low blow on Franco. Franco clearly stronger,walking in with left hand at hip behind strong jab. Hunter falling in and clipping him wide but warned twice...getting rough. Bad round for Hunter.
Franco out straight ahead in 2nd and Hunter loading up right. Being forced around big time by Franco who is beginning to tee off. Hunter catches clean left and looks stoned and backs to ropes. Hunter hits Franco in the nuts and Franco takes time while ref deducts point. Hunter digs to body but Franco punches thru him at rounds end.
I'm not sure I feel like watching but I'm just here so you don't have to talk to yourself
Hunter really going to body and moving out,borderline low and sticking jab to Franco. Very herky jerky round and Franco looking to trap him in corner. Franco sticks three jabs to his dome and walks in. Hunter is just being moved when ever Franco commits.......side note Franco looks like a poor poor mans Tito Trinidad,at least facially ?
HA ;D...thanks man. We need all the help we can get.
4th and more of the same. Hunter hits him on hip and warned yet again. Seriously wonder what these guys weigh right now...Hunter looks like a bantamweight.
Hunter has found a survival mode and 'can' be an effective body puncher but matter of strength by Franco. Franco looks to ref after another belt shot and ref says nah. He goes to Hunters corner after 5th and tells Hunter to stop complaining,wow. High guard from Franco now,setting down on shots.
Hunter has some iffy tactics. Leads with shoulder and head. Franco is really loading up now and commited to exert some hurt. Hunters lays in but almost wilts after body shot,still hanging in but has n.o.t.h.i.n.g to keep Franco off. Franco attacking at rounds end. Onto 8th and appreciate showtime commitment to respecting hard working ring card girls with frequent shots.
8th and huge headbutt. Franco deduted a point I think....wow. Hunter hits Franco in his baggy trousers and ref waves it off on DQ. Yeh it was fugly and punkish by Hunter on review. Slight left down there and enough is enough....he falls to the canvas in 'shock' and then leaves ring before Franco announced winner. Jeezus thank God thats over !
Ed Perry 17-4-2 {10} vs Lateef Koyode 14-0 {13} . This might be fun. Or not. Cruisers.
Perry really packing a gut but built soild. Koyade awkward frame,bends back and fast hands,legs a bit stiff. Kayode really ups jab and follows behind it fast as round closes. Nice pace by him. Takes round.
Perry can fight but Kayode can fight better. Kayode flicks jab alot to bring rights,not real strong on it. Perry misses wide and is beginning to except role as opponent. Nice hook from Perry and Kayode spears back.Nice handspeed. Corner tells Perry to take him late. Um.
Good third round from Perry.
Its all becoming give and take. Perry is built like a tank ohhhh but gets nailed to the body big and takes knee. Kayode sells out for offense and can be caught,jab finds him flush. Nice action thru 4
Nice showing from Kayode.
End comes on more body work from Kayode with KO :51 of 6th as Perry goes down on knee. Kayode really has a deceptive whipping body attack,seeks out weakness and pounces on it...no lack of confidence at all. Nice break down and ending. Cruisers need all the highlights they can get and he's a player big time.
I'm glad they put him in with a guy that didn't fall over after a couple of right hands. Good learning fight.
Perry was whipping a strong hook early. Head wouldnt fall so Kayode took his belly. Nice.Quote:

Just caught that fight. It start getting pretty good. Perry isn't that bad, except for his conditioning. Kayode looked good.
