    Mares is stinking out the joint with all his running and holding.

    Crowd is booing.

    Mares here reminds me of Khan, in his first couple of fights at least, under Virgil Hunter.

    The defensive frailties are still there and if anything he's lost some of his attacking vigor.

    Round 5

    Oquendo is blocking as Mares jabs and chops in with the right, then holds and hits the body. Oquendo is waiting too much on the outside, throwing a single jab and then stepping left. Mares lands a left hook, then grabs. Mares is mirroring Oquendo's movement, then moving in with a jab, tying up and hitting the body in the clinch.

    10-9 Mares

    49-46 Mares

    Oquendo has a really good left hook to the body, but he isn't throwing it.

    Hunter turns all his fighters into huggers and dirty fighters. At least with Mares he already had a dirty fighter to begin with.

    He looks different altogether. If this is his new fighting style, I'm really gonna miss his old one .

    Round 6

    Oquendo is jabbing and covering up, never throwing more than one-and-done. Mares is dancing around Oquendo, a bit lazily, staying close until Hunter yells at him to pick up the speed. Mares chops with a right hand as Oquendo gets close. Mares jabs up into Oquendo's chin and ducks in under an Oquendo right hand, clasping his arms around Oquendo's chest.

    10-9 Mares

    59-55 Mares
