BoxFest 16: Deonte Brown vs. Grimardi Ismael Machuca Pérez & Saúl Sánchez vs. Edwin Rodríguez II RBR

I hate listening to him.

 

Deonte Brown vs. Grimardi Ismael Machuca Pérez, 10 rounds @ super featherweight

 

And sounds like the proprietor of a porno theater in Spanish Harlem.

 

Round 1

Brown is shooting the southpaw jab and leaning back with both arms low. Machuca is following, putting up a left jab, sometimes dropping it to Brown's midsection and sometimes hooking off it rushing in. Brown tries for a body shot, grazes with a right hook downstairs beneath the Machuca jab.

10-9 Machuca, close

 

Round 2

Machuca is doubling the jab and driving in the right. Brown takes a step back, hits the brakes, and tries shooting a straight left but Machuca has already adjusted and begun to circle away. Both playing chess here, figuring each other out. Trading jabs, neither landing. Machuca first to charge in and try for a cross on the beard, smothered as Brown fires a right jab past his shoulder and slams chest to chest with him. Machuca jab parried by a Brown right hook, and Brown gets in a short left counter. Brown jumps in with another short left on the chin.

10-9 Brown

19-19

 

Round 3

More orthodox vs. southpaw jab duel from range. Knuckle bumping. Machuca repels Brown from a clinch after the latter runs in with a left over the shoulder and slams into him. Machuca wants that left hook off the jab but isn't quite getting the distance and timing with it. Machuca has more success throwing a chopping right hand behind the jab as Brown is leaning straight back on bent knees. Brown is getting cute with his jerky head movement while keeping his feet planted - able to slip one combo from Machuca but the next lands and gets a hoot from the crowd.

10-9 Machuca, close

29-28 Machuca
