JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Potentially a very solid scrap with Diaz and Fortuna for the wbc 135 interim belt. Fortuna got stiffed when Ryan Garcia dropped out of a showdown so good he's getting another crack. Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramirez is one fighter hard to get your head around and figure out just what is going on in his career. Great Southpaw size and reach with a glossy unblemished 41-0 record and now campaigning at 175..yet watching him develop since his signature win over a faded Arthur Abraham 5 years ago has been like watching paint dry. Have a suspicion they're trying to reboot him again and get him back into the 'exciting' talk facing long in the tooth Sullivan Barrera coming in off two years inactivity and going on 40. Could turn out decent.

Seniesa Estrada is a tight little fighter. Fair to say women flyweights have a limit but she's making some noise and pretty entertaining. Takes a unanimous 10 over Tenkai Tsunami here.
Fortuna v Diaz just off the 1st round. Both watching and waiting for typical feel out but pretty sure it'll heat up quick.
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Like Fortuna in 2nd solid mix of punches controlling the distance and ring so far, just boxing with Diaz staying straight on in front coming to him little offence with high guard as he has a convo with the ref and bangs his gloves together.
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Diaz good portion middle of 3rd but Fortuna steadies end of round. Diaz determined to go straight in. Both warned with point deduct for hitting behind head ???. Tie up close and Diaz comes out with an ugly cut of headbutt. So many angles on Fortuna still
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Ref docks a point from Diaz honestly didn't see that. Too early for ref to make himself a factor but ignites fire in Diaz and opens up on when waved in. Strong controlled final minute for Fortuna whipping single hooks end of 4th. Getting scrappy now
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Power clearly in Fortuna corner he backs Diaz and rakes him over beginning 5th. Basic smart boxing and Diaz looks stuck in gear walking onto it and little output. Think best round for Fortuna. Freddie Roach chatting it up with Miguel Cotto in the crowd
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Diaz whipping in good body hooks start 6th, rocking side to side trying to keep Fortuna stationary. Little role reversal round solid for Diaz, gets in clean and output of Fortuna slows
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Oh nice straight left clips Fortuna. Fortuna back to boxing but getting that wide erratic Fortuna thing going now. Felt more complete round 7 for Diaz but needs to let them hands gooooo!
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Fortuna getting off in 8th good mix to head and body shuts Diaz down mostly last half of round. They have these mini exchanges going. Fortuna more thump and sharper when he settles himself. These cards are going to be a complete clusterfeck
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Fortuna rolling them in to start 9th backing Diaz. Real nice 1-2 by Diaz lands clean Fortuna walks through it. Both laying in last minute and bumping shoulders inside, Diaz gets in clean and in numbers there. Tough arse coin flip round both took their share and gave some.
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Like to see one of these gents commit to the hurt because both have impact now. Legs of Fortuna are known to be on the grey side and Diaz needs to go all in! Good pressure to end 10th and Fortuna felt it. Time for Diaz to attempt to kick in the door
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Real nice mixing from Fortuna beginning 11th and Diaz with his hands in his pockets ffs :cwm13:. Finally opens up last minute Diaz. Hard right puts Diaz on one foot and gets backed into corner walking away. Pretty clear 2 of 3 company boyz on the Dazn mic have already decided who won ;D:-X. Chris Mannix is a lil high
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
12th spent shoulder to shoulder mauling inside and landing short clips nothing major. Dias dances away at the final 10 second chime and Fortuna follows him raising his own gloves wtf ;D. We have a dance off ladies and gentlemen both trying to out celebrate each other.
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
Scores 117-110..116-111..115-112 all for Diaz what a shocker. Gotta say first two are absolute horse shat. Loaded cards with point deduct ta boot on Diaz. Can see either by two maybe but nah.
Re: JoJo Diaz v Javier Fortuna & Zurdo Ramirez v Barrera DAZN
