Carl Frampton vs. Kiko Martinez II RBR

Round 3

Kirilov is slouching over and coming up with ambush hooks, timed well but not fooling McCullough. Jabbing in carefully from the high guard at long range, McCullough is picking Kirilov apart and hitting him with whipping rights when he stands still and uppercuts on the body when he leans over to either side. Kirilov is dropping his arms, daring McCullough to throw so he can bend low, trot to his side, or slap up a counter hook - but the speed differential results in him just getting grazed before he can do any of those things. Kirilov has a bloody nose.

10-9 McCullough

30-27 McCullough

 

This is bumming me out.

 

Time for a mercy British stoppage.

 

Round 4

Kirilov is getting found at range with jabs and long rights over the top while forced to shuffle widely around McCullough. Lackadaisically spinning and taking pot shots, McCullough is breaking up Kirilov's face with his shots while having nothing to worry about coming back from the much shorter jabs of Kirilov never reaching him. Kirilov worms in close and lands a good right hand just before the bell - not enough to steal this one, though.

10-9 McCullough

40-36 McCullough

 

:yep

 

Crowd booing pretty heavily now.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, your co-main event!

Is this getting anyone pumped for the action to come? :deal
