    Campillo is the underdog?

    I think he's being underestimated because of his recent defeats.

    That long neck is going to fail Fonfara soon

    Fonfara is on the other end of the spectrum, as ugly as they come.

    He is like a cross between Matthew Modine, Willem DaFoe, and Geoffrey the Giraffe.

    ...as unflattering a blend as you can imagine, of those. The worst qualities from all.

    Probably more due to Campillo being largely unknown to casuals who are betting with their hearts for their "hometown" fighter.

    Recent losses, age and location of the fight all go against him.

    Once upon a time, Steelworker Ron Kittle was the Dave Kingman of the White Sox.

    Of course he is, and you can't blame the bookies. Kov brutalized him.

    ...and Fonfara is a decade younger, @ home, and coming off adding two decent names to his resume... (although both were controversial, and even without the controversy the current shot old version of Johnson is nothing to be proud of beating)

    Just to note: both men usually have a height advantage.

    For whom is being roughly eye to eye going to be more disconcerting? :think

    Fonfara looks better than I expected. He's a tall fighter.

    Round 1

    Campillo is circling right and putting up high right jabs and single left hand spears to Fonfara's chest. Fonfara is sticking the left jab stepping forward. Right hand by Fonfara, ducked and swerved past by Campillo. Right to the body by Fonfara as Campillo trots backward, only getting tickled with it. Campillo slips a Fonfara jab leaning backward, and rebounds with a straight left up top. Campillo slips a few jabs at mid-range, using head movement. Left hook by Fonfara, blocked. Campillo is dancing in and out, side to side. Fonfara thrusts out a triple jab, missing past either side of Campillo's neck as the Spaniard dances around it. Lead left by Campillo, not quite reaching. Jab by Campillo into the guard of Fonfara.

    10-9 Campillo, not a lot between them.
