Terrazas is a good fighter. He was outboxing Rendall Munroe early on before getting stopped on a body shot (Munroe isn't the heaviest handed guy but digs well to the body), and his other stoppage loss was in his debut.

 

Round 1

Terrazas squats down and jabs to the body. Becerril stands straight up and twists his own jab out, turning his knuckles over but not really snapping it. Terrazas paws with both hands, creeping forward and brushing the body of Becerril with jabs and wavy rights. Terrazas throws an up-hook at the air as Becerril backs up. Terrazas jumps back to dodge a slow flurry from Becerril, and then ducks a few more sweeping shots that drag the air above his head like a net in the water. Terrazas is poking the body at every opportunity, but missing when his herky jerky rolling motions take him outside. Becerril patiently throws, trying to time him but can't land clean.

10-9 Terrazas

 

Round 2

Terrazas jabs his way in and then starts to roll around right under Becerril's nose, swaying left and right while tapping out body shots. Becerril swipes ineffectively down at him, and then circles out as Terrazas keeps coming forward jabbing and hooking. Terrazas paddles a Becerril jab off his right mitt. Terrazas throws a routine jab and then runs in behind it with a flush uppercut. Becerril finds Terrazas too slippery to land his short, straight, slow punches on. Meanwhile Terrazas is just slapping up high as he ducks inside and missing or just patting Becerril on the back. A few underhands to the body by Becerril, caught largely on the arms. Terrazas jabs to the body and then leans in awkwardly, thrusting his shoulder into Becerril. Terrazas steps inside and outside in a broken hokey pokey rhythm, confusing Becerril.

20-18 Terrazas

 

Round 3

Terrazas swarms his man and puts a pair of fists in his face at all times, gnat-like. Becerril swings out in slow arcs at him while backing up. Down goes Becerril from a left! Out goes his mouth piece! Becerril is up and firing away, a bit infuriated. Hooks and uppercuts by Becerril miss. Terrazas rolls and pitches his way inside, tapping Becerril on the face with well-placed jabs between his waves of motion and just getting grazed with Becerril's counter rights. Several hard jabs to the body by Terrazas.

10-8 Terrazas

30-26 Terrazas

 

Round 4

Terrazas squats, stretches out and jabs the body. Jabs to the body keep landing as Terrazas circles with his upper body rolling like the surf of the ocean. Becerril is abruptly hurt once more and backed to the corner. He fights back and manages to slide a few feet to the rope, and ultimately battles his way out to the middle of the ring. Becerril is trying to match punch for punch but getting abused. OVER! A particularly flush uppercut after a big right hand from Terrazas (crunching home, swinging around & down, rapidly rising and crunching again) made the referee step in.
