NBC Sports: Gabe Rosado vs. Jesus Soto Karass & Maurice Byarm vs. Bryant Jennings RBR

Doesn't Travis Walker also go by the "Freight Train" moniker?

 

Watched the fight few weeks ago. Well matched fight, couldn't believe he was Holy's debut opponent.

 

Let's Go Big Mo'!!!

 

At least it is what it is and it doesn't pretend to be some prestigious or special anything.

 

naw I'm serious man, Philly makes the best fighters

I'm a little biased

 

Round 1

Jennings throws a long jab, shifting to his left. Byarm just stands back and keeps his guard up. Jennings circles to the right now, jab flowing. They tie up and Jennings works some meaty shots to the body. Inactivity by Byarm. He follows Jennings around the ring, not really cutting it off. Slapping shots to the sides of the head by Jennings. Byarm creeps forward and throws a slow right hook, and gets grabbed. Jennings shoves him up against the ropes. They trade body shots. Jennings backs out throwing straight lefts and rights. Right to the breast area by Jennings. Byarm pushes up his right jab into the guard. Clinch. Slapping combo by Jennings.

10-9 Jennings

 

Clear cut Jennings round 1

Both look a lil sloppy though...

 

Smokin' Joe's left hook! :scaredas::scaredas::!:

 

R1:

Byarm comes out with two arms, as promised, and lots of cellulite. Byarm tries to take control from the beginning, and does it awkwardly and flabbily. The bumpy looking chap lands a good body shot after some ugly clinching. Byarm lands some decent shots but maybe the two best shots were bumpy guy's to the flab. Jennings gets Byarm at the tail end on the ropes and bosses him a little bit! It's...it's not a very good round for either man. Let's give it to bumpy!

Edit: Oh, good thing. IB's doing it. This is hard. :twisted:

 

Round 2

Jennings is circling around to his left, working those jabs and hooks. Byarm tries to flip up some body shots, keeping his hands holstered low when not throwing. Jennings is doing a good job getting his elbows in the way as he keeps moving. Good combo by Jennings, landing a hook and uppercut in succession to back Byarm up. Byarm misses a wild counter uppercut. Long clinch against the ropes. Jennings is landing some nice jabs through the gloves. Byarm comes forward, into a jab and abandons the chase.

20-18 Jennings

 

The best shots through the first two minutes are the Byarm body shots. Landing a lot of them. Jennings flails those right hands no matter if on the inside or a full extension bomb.

Round 2 was close, I'd give the slight edge to Byarm.

 

Round 3

Jennings leans in against Byarm, and plugs the body while guiding him back toward a corner. BIG ripping hook combo to the face by Jennings. Both are a bit tired after that minute long wrestling match. These are some big boys. That's a lot of beef to push around. Jennings is really cracking hard with right hands and left hooks. Byarm now mounts a comeback, hammering away at the smaller man coming forward. Pushed jab by Byarm, just making Jennings back up to the ropes but not landing. Now Jennings turns the tables and gets Byarm on the ropes and bangs away with HARD rights.

30-27 Jennings

 

Jennings, 3-0. Byarm is simply not sharp enough to get this done, from what I've seen. Jennings had Byarm for the taking, twice, in that round, against the ropes, imo. If he'd sustained his attack, he may have gotten him, even. Byarm lands more on Jennings' D than anything and Jennings just tags Byarm when he wants.

 

Oh, Judah vs. Paris is on NBC Sports? Cool. I'd assumed that was ESPN2 FNF.

 

his right was just as good, but he just tried to disguise it by getting everybody to focus on his left
