CanalSpace: Jaime Aaron Munguía Escobedo vs. Takeshi Inoue & Jesús Manuel Rojas Díaz vs. Can Xu RBR

That whole 15/1 underdog thing looks really stupid in hindsight.

Munguía got overrated real quick. (and Inoue, had anyone bothered to ask close followers of the Japanese domestic scene like myself or to a much greater extent @Boxing Prospect has always seemed like a very good fighter...maybe not quite elite, but then neither is Munguía in truth...)

 

Round 11

Munguía is rattling BIG line drive right hands from the hip into the head of Inoue, shaking him up but never discouraging him. Inoue shakes it off immediately every time he gets wobbled, and keeps pressing forward. Inoue unable to accomplish much, though, before Munguía either ties him up, eludes him while jogging up on his toes into the ropes, or flurrying in his face with jabs and loosey-goosey rights or banging the body with powerful hooks. Inoue keeps trying, dropping rights from overhead and mixing in his own body shots.

10-9 Munguía, close

105-104 Munguía

 

Round 12

Munguía is letting Inoue come to him, countering from the corner with big right hands and left hooks. These punches are swiveling Inoue's head around sickeningly but he keeps trudging in anyhow. Inoue with big uppercuts inside as he finally gets close. More power blasts from Munguía, who then breaks into a trot across the ring, luring Inoue along for the ride, and of course he obliges, and gets pounded some more, willingly.

10-9 Munguía

115-113 Munguía
