Anyone watching the Showtime broadcast... what's Mikey Garcia saying?
12-0, 120-107, Jorge Linares. What. A. Performance.
11th best round in a few for Linares. Those combos!
Linares did a good job in the 10th turning it into a boxing match again after the closer 8th and 9th.
Linares corner at this point in a fight should be reminding him that he has a glass chin and to box box box.
Linares too confident to start the 9th, letting Crolla back in the fight, and got hit with a few. But a big Linares hook I think hurt Crolla....
Linares really wants a left hook knockdown I think. Crolla's fading but he's still got a good guard up. Tough guy to keep chasing Linares down...
Perfectly chosen left hook uppercut that Crolla didn't see knocks him down! This is brilliant.
When a guy's dominating like this you'd usually want him to press for a stoppage. But with Linares' chin and thin skin he should just keep on...
Linares looking better every round. I think he's trying to lift Crolla's guard up to find a chance to dig with a big body shot...
I won't comment about the score unless I think Crolla wins a round. Linares using his shoulders for defence then countering more now.
Perfect selection of uppercuts by Linares when Crolla leans in with his head. This is why Linares is in my top 20 p4p.
Linares doesn't need to take as long to figure out Crolla this time. This is a clear boxing lesson.
Linares using his speed to put overhand rights and hooks behind his jab now. Caught Crolla with a few really nice right hands as he came in. 2-0...
Crolla landed the most solid punch, a hook to the body, but it was otherwise a jabbing contest that Linares controlled. Rd 1 Linares
