Solid night of boxing with two cards set to air. Legit bomb thrower Smith gets his second title shot. Vlasov is pretty solid comparatively in skill. Winner picks up the wbo belt. Featherweights Adam Lopez v Jason Sanchez stylistically just has to be a war. Commey makes comeback on card after being sparked out by Teofimo.
Not like it set interest on fire anyway ;D but disregard main event. Vlasov tested positive for Covid :frusty:. Fights off. Richard Commey v Jackson Marinez now main. Covid gonna Covid.
Going to make of this what we can. Dazn flaked out after the Warrington card so no idea what is up with the Jo Jo Diaz fight. He missed weight by 3 lbs and gave up the belt though :p
Kingsley Ibeh v heavyweight hopeful 7-0 (7) Jared 'Don't call me Riddick Bowe' Anderson start on the espn card. Ibeh is a sloppy awkward bomber but a bomber he be.
Both with bloody noses to end the 1st :-X. We can work with that. Anderson round but Ibeh very close with a few.
Anderson one of those vocal guys when he throws. Sharp with the jab and lands right hands behind it to end 2nd. Ibeh right eye swelling up.
Ibeh switching to southpaw on and off looking for a big brick. Anderson really rolling them off here. Stands tall but nice combos upstairs.
More Chris Byrd than Bowe maybe. At 250 really good speed. Studying things a bit much in 4th though. Ibeh is leaking all over the place.
Teo Lopez visits Commey in the back before his fight. Hope Commey doesn't come out like he saw a ghost now ;D. All Anderson in 5th. Patience is good for young heavyweights, but like to see Jared take more advantage of those wide openings.
Man. Ibeh bleeding from the eye, the nose and now his lip. Crimson nightmare.
:o Oh ok that was brutal! Both stood in wide exchange, Ibeh goes flat on his back stiff as a board. Great finisher by Anderson. Ref waves immediately. Left hook maybe?
Good slip and reset Anderson, long right hand followed by bit of a palming right bear paw did it. Ibeh was out on his way down.
Oscar Valdez v Miguel Berchelt next week! Seriously slept on action fight. Berchelt a seriously slept on fighter :-X.
Featherweights...15-2 Jason Sanchez v 14-2 Adam Lopez in co main. In and out on this one. Lopez looks long all over. Big frame. Solid 1st Sanchez cleaner and closer.
Sanchez looking real crisp and confident. Lopez lingers on the front foot, he almost saunters in moving the shoulders but not the feet, and Sanchez gets off rapid and gets out. a 'snow/freeze watch' on the Gulf coast :cwm13:. Time to wrap some pipes.
Lopez back on it in a big way in 6th. McGirt has finally sparked the fire and Lopez boxing long now. Solid combo by Lopez keeps Sanchez still and shuts him down. Man Buddy is loud ringside when there are no live fans ;D
Tale of two fights...Lopez picking his spots and really clocking him clean in 7th. Solid fluid footwork finally.
Sanchez really sponging up those hard right hands. Can't miss now. Lopez sharp shooting him bad in 8th. Literally like a switch clicked in him
Missed the last round :p. Gonna be close cards or they should be. Ward has it a draw. Scores at 95-95...97-93...96-94..winner Maj dec Adam Lopez.
The new main event now. Sucks for Joe Smith losing the main event opportunity. Commey may have his hands full with Marinez if early 1st is any indicator. Commey gets in the long right at end of round. This one has the feel of anything could happen.
Commey really unloading the right in 2nd. Looked like he buzzed Marinez but Marinez has a good poker face. Huge right hook clean along ropes for Commey. He's taken the distance from him this round. Marinez starting to trade and backing off for his effort.
Marinez ripping some decent combo counters early 3rd but that herky uncertain body language. Commey trying too hard in 4th a bit but again gets in big straight right end of round.
Teo Lopez has turned Commey biggest fan apparently ;D. Literally jumping up with 'ohhhhs' ringside. Marinez has steadied things though.
Marinez with solid 5th round. Commey comes out bombing early 6th and dings Marinez for a second. Def looks like he is feeling the power when along ropes.
Oh ouch Commey drops him hard on the ropes. He slumps down, gets up and Commey detonates him with finisher right hand for another kd! Ref waves it off
Never let it be said that Commey doesn't own a lethal top notch straight right hand. That was harsh and constant
