2nd Round - 140 Pound Tourney - Antonio Cervantes vs. Tony Canzoneri

Cervantes by a close 15 round decision.

 

I also think that Canzoneri was better, greater for me anyway. But im inclined to take Cervantes here. Whichever way it goes it's tough for either fighter and by no means do i see a stoppage. Tough battle with Canzoneri pressing the action and Cevrantes boxing but finding himself mixing it up where he eats shots but gets in his own scoriing power ones.

I feel really split here, Cervantes reluctantly.

 

Im siding with Canzoneri.

I think he takes a pretty close but clear decision in the end. I reckon he has the ability and smarts to take away the physical advantages of Cervantes. More than likely uses his smaller stature to his advantage.

 

there are some hard to predict fights in this round. I see it similar to teeto but with the better end for Toni.

Canzoneri UD15 Cervantes.

 

As my post unfolded i increasingly began to think i was picking the wrong man.

I'll have to stick by my pick now though, not good!

 

Cervantes was a master at using his height and reach to his advantage. I see a damn good fight through the first 10 rounds and then Cervantes accelerating down the finish. Cervantes W15 Canzoneri.

Cervantes at his fluent best would be able to better Tony with classier work over the course of the fight.

Cervantes WU15 (9-6)
