Carl Frampton vs. Jeremy Parodi & Eamonn O'Kane vs. Kerry Hope RBR

Round 4

Frampton is moving in, drawing Parodi's jab and then swaying out and down to his left to roll under it and return with a sharp 1-2. HARD RIGHT HAND LEAD BY FRAMPTON!! Parodi's legs buckle as he staggers nearly into a corner. Somehow Parodi keeps his balance. Frampton moves in for the kill but Parodi has the guard up. Parodi slaps on his earmuffs and gets battered with combos up close. Frampton whips hooks into Parodi's ears, partially softened by the backs of his gloves. Parodi is bleeding on both eye sockets. Frampton lands a left hook from the outside, traveling all the way around Parodi's guard.

10-9 Frampton - close to a 10-8

40-36 Frampton

 

Round 5

Frampton is flat out ignoring Parodi's jab, coming in low and flicking his own hard jab from the hip into Parodi's face and building into body-head combos or just shoveling rights into Parodi's stomach behind the stunning facial jab. BIG overhand right doubled up by Frampton, hurting Parodi. He jumps in and hooks Parodi twice near the liver, really digging in. Frampton is going for a knockout here. Parodi backs up and paws a jab, guard up high and tight. Frampton pierces the guard with several jabs, then drills a right into Parodi's body. Frampton is ducking and circling, seeking angles. Quick aggressive body combos by Frampton, staying close. Parodi waves a jab out in the air while circling to his right. Parodi pushes in a right hand on Frampton's stomach and leaves it to brace off and launch himself away. Frampton stays with him.

10-9 Frampton

50-45 Frampton

 

Jeremy's balance and punch resistance look to be fading rapidly.
