20-18 Usmanee

 

Nah. The punch a moment before it wasn't that flush and didn't cause him to go down; Usmanee chucked him.

Clear 10-9 round for Usmanee, though.

Round 3

Usmanee is blocking most of Bento's straight jabs and rights and countering with more looping shots. Hooks and uppercuts by Usmanee backing up. Now a couple of straight piercing body shots. Good movement inside by Usmanee, making Bento miss and punishing him with chopping hooks and rights to the face.

30-27 Usmanee

 

Round 4

Bento is still swinging his arms in front of himself and taking short hops to and fro, building up the nerve to repeatedly charge in with straight combos and getting countered hard and often. Usmanee is leading from far outside, jabbing the body and banging Bento on the chin with right crosses. Bento tries to chase Usmanee into the ropes and buckles his knees momentarily with a right hand, but it was primarily Usmanee being off balance. Clinch. Usmanee throws a lead right, too wide and flying over Bento's shoulder as Bento misses his own shots. Usmanee whips to the body.

40-36 Usmanee, easy work.

 

They are still showing stuff from the UK card.
