Vanes Martirosyan vs. Demetrius Andrade & Miguel Angel Garcia vs. Roman Martinez RBR

Round 4

Martirosyan is trotting in and reaching with the right hand. Andrade circles and flicks up the right jab, then swivels both hips and curls into a ball moving outside and rolling to either side when Martirosyan explodes with straight counters. Andrade is pecking at Martirosyan's guard with the jab and reaching around it with right slap-hooks from outside. Andrade shoves Martirosyan off with both arms after ducking in against him. Martirosyan bounces in place and dives in with a right hand to the body. Andrade slips and jabs. Martirosyan whacks at Andrade with roundhouse punches but they slide off his upper back as he squats and rolls.

10-9 Andrade, close

38-37 Martirosyan

 

He was the ring general and controlled the action late, yes, but he didn't land enough cleanly for me. (so I didn't count slaps on the back when Andrade was twisting and rolling, for instance)

I liked the aggression, there just wasn't enough of it that was effective. Or, cleanly scoring I should have said. Roughing Andrade up even with accidentally illegal or partially slipped or rolled shots could prove effective, long term. :yep

 

Round 5

Martirosyan is walking through light jabs flicked up from the hip of Andrade. Martirosyan is slinging in underhanded body punches stepping in, cricking his neck as he comes. Andrade lands a left cross behind the jab. Andrade sways to either side as he circles right in rhythm and scores jabs on the head of Martirosyan. Hard 1-2 by Martirosyan propelling forward, catching Andrade on the sideburns but not cleanly as Andrade falls away, turning.

10-9 Andrade

47-47
