Oleksandr Gvozdyk v Doudou Ngumbu on Espn

[Spicoli]

This one has gone under the radar but interested to see Gvozdyk back after impressive but tragic fight with Stevenson. This reads as honestly easy work for Gvozdyk on paper but hey the bell rings for a reason. 175 is another where any match of current champs makes for a close pick em match up with personal preference being Bivol v Kovalev but rival promotion may lead to Kovalev v Beterbiev. Card should kick off in 3+ hours.

Egidijus Kavaliauskas v Ray 'no relation' Robinson starts it off. Should actually be a good one. What are the odds Ray opens his forehead up.

[Spicoli]

Southpaw Robinson on the backfoot steady jabbing. Kav doing well to step with him and looking for body shots early. Robinson not shooting the straight left yet. Both waiting to let go, good right hand end of 2nd by Kov.

[Spicoli]

Robinson mixing well in 3rd, left lively. Kov determined to get to the body looking for jabs and left hooks. Robinson with the options and Kov a bit straight line following for body. Needs to seriously get his hands off

[Spicoli]

Kov looks like he's trying to pogo early 4th. Bounce bounce bounce but the hands stay home. Goood 1-2 finally forces Ray to move uncomfortable. Robinson steadies with long steady jab and left stick ends round. Kov needs to kick in the door the way this is forming up.

[Spicoli]

Good exchange early 5th, Kov got him to punch with him. Straight right gets Robinson on ropes followed by left. Better work from Kov upstairs. Easily his best round and Robinson throwing that left not so committal and pulling it.
