ESPN2 FNF: Thomas Williams Jr. vs. Gabriel Campillo RBR

Round 6

Aleem tosses a 1-2 over Rojas' head and begins to dance outside as Rojas chases with a high reaching jab-right-jab from a crouch. Aleem is pushed into the ropes, where Rojas begins to pummel the body lightly. Aleem steps out and creates space with his feet, looping in a right hand welcome mat for Rojas. Body swipes and uppercuts by Rojas muscling Aleem into the corner. Rojas is pumping shots into Aleem's face, mostly arm punches but not letting up. Aleem eats a jab and steps back, snapping out his own. Rojas whips in a hard left hook to the body. Aleem takes a right on the braids while throwing a left hook. BIG COUNTER RIGHT BY ALEEM. Rojas is staggering away, unable to find the canvas with his rear foot, not going down but out on his feet.

TKO6!!

 

Froze him stiff. Didn't like the stoppage though.

 

Wow!

 

95% on facebook had the 2nd round for rojas.

 

thats why Rojas has a losing record. Lucky swing rocked him.

 

Less than a minute left and I'd have given Rojas that round before that shot. (but still would have come up with 59-54 Aleem overall)

 

damn, wonder what the scorecards looked like

 

Aleem was spent as well.

 

does this Rojas guy remind you of John Molina?

 

His circuits were scrambled, he couldn't figure out how to stand upright (though, credit to him, also never went down)

 

He was eating shots that flush all night.

 

Judgement call. Rojas was in chicken dance mode, and didn't look capable of defending himself in that moment...but did appear to recover shortly thereafter. Not a huge fan of stopping it in that second, but I can see why it was done.

 

not at all. molina can rock you, rojas has zero power.

 

Wale Omotoso is on this card and ESPN2 saddled us with Dirrell & Aleem?!?!??!?!?!?!?! atsch ****S.

 

ref can't anticipate rojas would recover as well as he did. doing the chicken like that gets the fight stopped. end of story.
