ESPN Prograis v Velasco

[Spicoli]

Southpaw left now on point from Prograis. Goes hard to head and body with Velasco covering up more and hurt end of 4th. Kid has many angles on his punches. 3-1

[Spicoli]

Ohh that hurt. Velasco dropped in a huge heap and rolling from body shots! And he gets up..tough one. Prograis smells it in the water looking for the finish. Velasco survives round

[Spicoli]

Crawford sitting ringside looking like a full middleweight . Prograis full control let Velasco off a bit in 6th. Seems the door is there to be shut but Prograis putting on a beat up.

Oh another brutal left hook to gut drops him! Massive shot..but he's up. Damn

[Spicoli]

Velasco trying to get out of it, corner tearing him for it "what do you mean you can't go". Velasco all but done coming out

[Spicoli]

Body shots, down again and spits mouth piece...buuut he gets up! Kid has grapefruits but he is being battered!

Lawrence Cole calls crumple down a 'slip'. Dummy. This guy wants out and corner and ref want him torn up. Corner finally steps on apron and waves it off 8th round just as Velasco goes down falling backwards again. Solid solid body work by Prograis.

[Fenster]

Prog was "lucky" Vel couldn't punch, or maybe that was the reason he took so many (wasn't bothered).

The WSS is going to be excellent - Josh Taylor doesn't have much to worry about.

Prior to this fight I felt Prograis was the guy to beat by a slight edge over Taylor.

Now I think Taylor wins this comfortably. And I'm a Rougarou fan.
