Zapata vs Rudy Crawford

Zapata: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9,10,11,12,13,14,15
Crawford: 8 KD'D 6
Total: 149-135 Zapata (14-1)

Excellant performance. Kind of a role reversal early in the fight as Crawford circled away from Zapata but Zapata cut the ring off expertly and applied pressure behind his solid jab. He started upping it with sharp combinations and dropped Crawford with a beautiful combo in the 6th. Crawford changed his strategy and started to land some flurries but Zapata kept cool and dealt with him. Even in the exchanges Zapata kept cool made Crawford miss and landed his own sharp counters.

In the 8th Crawford just seemed to land afew good flurries and kept Zapata honest. After about the 10th Zapata slowed his workrate and wasnt as eager as he was in the first 10 rounds as his work rate dropped and he started forgetting his jab but he still stayed in controll. And one a good but one sided fight.
