    Round 6
    Moran walking Cruz down and landing a lot of hard body shots. Cruz took over the last part of the round as inexplicably Moran stops throwing almost anything. Was he hurt there? Hmm
    10-9 Moran (close)
    57-57

    Yea Moran has been much better these last three, the first three Cruz was outspeeding him, not by much and it was competitive

    Cruz grabs him by the head and forces him down. Ref calls no knockdown but looks admonishingly at Moran the call action no warning to Cruz. Coulda sworn earlier Moran was given a scolding look for landing some punches. Guess shitty purple shorts man is the backed fighter?

    Just bet more on Bakole after that great interview clip lol
    I turned it on round 4 and it’s been Moran getting the better of it.

    Really impressive round by Cruz. He has lost the last three rounds and looked to be fading. That was an Ike Quartey like jab!

    Cruz was clear a few rounds. Moran had some success. Good fight.

    Round 1 Cruz 10-9
    Round 2 Cruz 10-9
    Round 3 Cruz 10-9
    Round 4 Moran 10-9
    Round 5 Moran 10-9
    Round 6 Moran 10-9
    Round 7 Cruz wins by TKO

    Tide turned, Moran hurt and almost went down from a jab early. Cruz hurts him late with an overhand right, he stumbles into the ropes, ref calls it a knockdown, then waves it, since Moran was so wobbly.

    Another Cuban hype(job)train for me to ride in until it derails brutally.

    I love this sport.

    Nice KO. Im normally the first to give fighters benefit of the doubt and make it to the end of the round, but Moran was in no state to continue.
