Round 11: Gonzalez 10-9

It appears that Gonzalez found his rythm. He's moving and countering, mixing it up with some overhands and herky jerky movement. Iwata not necessarily slowing down overall but his feet getting slower and he's more flat footed now while stalking Gonzalez. Side to side movement from Gonzalez makes it impossible for Iwata to back him up and unload. Gonzalez not landing a lot in that second half but more than Iwata and he also makes Iwata look pretty wild and one dimensional which should be enough to edge the round.

 

Round 11
Gonzalez 10-9
Gonzalez 105-104

 

Iwata may have nicked that 11th on his volume but Gonzalez did land the cleaner counters throughout, tough round to score.

 

7-3-1 Gonzalez for me, maybe controversial - but I feel He outlanded Iwata in majority of rounds. I could see some people giving Iwata more credit for his body work though.
Good fight.

Super sloppy round from both guys. Gonzalez had no interest to fight. He was just running and throwing some random jabs. Iwata brought the pressure and edged that round.

115-113 Iwata

114-114 is fine as well. No way Gonzalez should get the decision here.

 

116:113 Gonzalez, but I expect Iwata to get it.

 

Gotta say Gonzalez is just a great mover, his footwork is top notch. Iwata is a good pressure fighter but he needs to improve cutting off the ring even though that's very difficult against Gonzalez for anyone.

 

I got 8-4 gonzalez even i dont like gim early in the fight. Seems compare to other scorecards
