Antonio Carlos Tarver, Jr. vs. Andrew Dwelly RBR

Ethasor Raphael Akpejiori vs. Dell Long, 8 rounds @ heavyweight


Thankfully, this one will be over with merciful swiftness. Akpejiori, a Nigerian giant standing at 6'8", comes in 14-0 (13). Long, meanwhile, is a chonky six foot West Virginian tomato can with a 7-11-2 record, stopped 8 times.

 

Well...yeah, TKO1, as expected, but it wasn't nearly as brutal or hilarious as I'd hoped. Akpejiori just sort of walked him down and threw sloppy 1-2s at him, with Long blocking them and getting swatted down anyway on the firt two knockdowns. Akpejiori then walked into a high slicing lacrosse stick right from Long and finally planted a 1-2 flush on his nose sending Long flying into the padded turnbuckle, with the ref waving it off immediately because three-knockdown rule.
