    Round 3

    Rodriguez is starting to work the body intently. Overhand rights by Rodriguez when Baker ducks in with his elbows tucked against the band of his trunks in response. Rodriguez is catching Baker with a bit of everything now, throwing bombs to head and body. To his credit, Baker is standing up to everything well, never getting caught with too many flush chin shots, everything up top skidding off his eye socket or sideburns or intercepted on the gloves. One in every three powerful chopping overhand rights up top, however, does smash flush into Baker's cheek. The ref jumps in.

    TKO3!

    That ref should be taken out back and shot. That is completely ridiculous.

    You can't just not throw a punch on the wrong end of a nonstop one-sided power assault (even if a majority isn't landing) for that long and then act surprised when you get waved off.

    Not saying I loved the stoppage, but Craig Baker is a moron.

    Rodriguez and Stevenson fought each other twice in the amateurs and Stevenson won both. He dropped Rodriguez in each of those fights as well.

    Man, I wish I still had my vcash

    A year ago or so when the website went from ESB to boxing24 the admin said there would be no more vbookies and in the supposed last ever betable fight I put every thing I had on the underdog and lost. Since then I stopped with vbetting

    Think La Bomba could avenge himself in the pros?

    On his "on nights", like when he whacked out Grachev... he's kinda scary. :think

    More often than not though, he's a clunky dud.

    Gotta agree.

    Clearly wasn't hurt but he was just giving the ref an excuse to stop it, all he had to do was throw a few punches back.
