    Round 1 Romero 10-9, close
    Round 2 Romero 10-9
    Round 3 Rodriguez 10-9, close
    Round 4 Rodriguez 10-8
    Round 5 Rodriguez wins by KO

    Romero shelling up up top, so Elvis is now driving heavy straight lefts to the exposed gut. Whipping in right hooks to his ribs. ROmero throwing a lot, but landing little clean, most being caught on the gloves of Elvis. Romero does land a nice hook late. Vicious overhand left on the button drops Romero before the bell, who's sitting there looking dispirited, makes no attempt to get to his feet.

    Wow!! Good for Rodriguez coming back from his first loss. Very good opening fight. Definitely want to see both again especially Rodriguez.

    BOOM! Overhand left from Rodriguez dumps Romero onto his back and convinces him to stay on the mat for the full ten count. Romero had been starting to come back a bit at the end of the fifth, but that short left put a stop to that. KO 5.

    If Plant wins I'm switching my avatar to his lovely mug, permanently.

    I'm looking forward, in a small way, to Vargas vs Baez. Should be fun!

    So...Yeah, I was right. This PPV undercard is already better than the Fury-Wilder PPV undercard. :lol:

    If Plant wins I will have to reevaluate everything I thought I knew about boxing.

    For what it's worth, for all of your Plant backers. I'd without hesitation pick Kovalev and Callum Smith to beat him. I also think John Ryder and David Benavidez wreck him at 168 as well.

    He's at it again. Cute how PBC completely ignores his wife's POV, kind of like they completely ignored why Adonis Stevenson spent several years in jail.

    I think Smith vs Plant is a 50/50 fight but agree with the rest. I could totally see Ryder outworking him and Benavidez winning via decapitation.

    My sister just sent me pics of my month-old nephew, so right now Caleb's douchery just makes me especially sick. The man is a sociopath.
