TBH, I'm more interested in the first fight in the undercard, with countryman Subriel Matias. Curious to see whether he has shaken the tragic death of Dadadev in a fight against him.
Let's see.

TBH, I'm more interested in the first fight in the undercard, with countryman Subriel Matias. Curious to see whether he has shaken the tragic death of Dadadev in a fight against him.
Let's see.
Hawkins is undefeated. Let's see...
Hawkins won that round. Busier... more accurate. 1-0
That round I gave to Matias. Much more effective aggression. 1-1
2-1 Matias. He's imposing his will on Hawkins now. Don't see why the commentators are calling it a "stepping up" fight for Hawkins. Almost discounting a possible Matias win.
3-1 Matias. More of the same.
Hawkins starting to badly stumble around in there. 4-1 Matias
I’m watching it with you
Hawkins has no answer for Matias so far
This is a sanctioned mauling by now. 5-1 Matias
I would think about stopping it if I were Hawkins corner
It's over. Fight is stopped between rounds. Matias now 16-1 (16 KOs). ;D
Doctor stopped the fight which is good
Martinez-Marrero up next.
Matias looked good.
I think Martinez stops Marrero.
1-0 Martinez.
Marrero started the round well, but Martinez caught up and took the round.
3-0 Martinez.
4-0 Martinez.
Good exchange toward the end of that round! Marrero's showing a good chin in there. That left hand is capable of hurting Martinez, but Marrero hasn't landed it flush yet.
4-1 Martinez.
Some close rounds.
Marrero needs to press the action more. Easier said than done, but Martinez is outlanding him by a large margin.
5-1 Martinez.
Evening gents. Like that Marrero sharp stabby style. Looks sturdier than I recall ;D. Martinez seeing looks he hasn't but doing well.
6-1 Martinez.
Oh man
BOOM! What a turn of events. Sharp right hook puts Martinez down. :o
6-2 Martinez (+ 2 KDs for Marrero).
Hmm... I expected more action out of Marrero after putting Martinez down twice in the 8th.
7-2 Martinez (+ 2 KDs for Marrero).
That left eye is going real bad. Marrero be wise to press for another Kd or two. Face of Martinez starting to get lumped up.
A little less dancing by Marrero these last two rounds might serve him well.
8-2 Martinez (+ 2 KDs for Marrero).
9-2 Martinez (+ 2 KDs for Marrero).
I hate it when corners say "This is the last round... you gotta throw now." :vd:
A mask on Mercante Jr is the closest we'll ever get to actual duct tape. I'll take it.
