    Default Robson Conceicao v Xavier Martinez ESPN Saturday

    Pretty good match up at 130. Robson coming off the Valdez loss where he did fairly decent regardless of one nutty 117-110 card handed in. Martinez looked like a very competent short combo puncher in a title eliminator win over Burgos.

    robson is much better & i think he'll show it
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    Conceicao taller longer deeper tool box and has a chippy physicality when needed. Still think Martinez can do a decent job of trying to combo punch between his set up and does well off the ropes. Still though, wouldn't be shocked to see it take on a man vs bwoy play out as rounds collect and if Robson brings that attitude.

    Not sure when main will kick but if near midnight here all bets are off

    And College Basketball delaying the card . Somethings never change. Didn't realize this was the 3rd title eliminator for Xavier Martinez.

    So this 16-1 Giron-Tellez blows the weight by 5 lbs and they somehow move him into the co main because another fighter also missed weight . Do something crazy next time, like take the payday from him. His opponent Giovanni Cabrera here is fairly crafty. For a guy who hasn't fought in 2 years moves and gets hands very well sharp. Looks in full control first 3.

    Giron lands a leaping right that Cabrera felt late 4th. Best chance for little tree stump is swing for the fences. Headbutt has Giron cut now. Cabrea needs to stop backhanding the jab.

    Decent fight really. Cabrera little sluggish in 8th and final round but has some real ability. Giron goes down ruled slip that weight and lack of pro preparation killed him.

    Ring card girls twins . This fight could very well shift right into 'levels' halfway through. Has to be Martinez fight to force early yeh? Robson has a way of chewing up things that stand in front. This should be good

    Like the tighter faster work by Martinez 1st, guy moves smart. Long right of Conceicao looking for a home

    Better for Conceicao in 2nd. Really like the footwork and placement of Martinez when he gets off but he needs that volume. This could shift when Robson knows he can take the weight and warming to it.

    This is getting scrappy. Conceicao warned by ref and putting punches together. Both have upped the work in 4th. Martinez trying to keep it close but he cannot jab with him. Martinez has to work

    Conceicao hands below beltline now ripping mid to long shots when he wants. Very solid 6th for him. Martinez looks stuck between styles on the end of it all.

    Conceicao 8th. Winning few contacts they make and wrapping Martinez up and 'taking him for walks' as some trainer used to say. Now or never for Martinez because they have separated. Martinez needs a ko

    Oh showy right by Martinez but nothing on it. Robson comes in waves and just sways out of range.
