Carlo Caesar Jumaran Peñalosa vs. Maximo López Flores & Ken Jordan vs. Macrea Acapulco Gandionco RBR

Round 1

Wild is living up to his surname, alright. Left uppercuts on the bum-rush inside are staved off by sidearm left jabs and ferris wheel overhand rights from Tenorio while backing up. Wild gets him with a glancing right jab on the bridge of the nose catching Tenorio imbalanced and dropping him for a flash KD.

10-8 Wild

 

Round 2

More haymakers from both. Wild busier offensively, very brash, clasping his gloves behind his buttocks and leaning forward, chin jutting out & dangling in front of Tenorio. Wild is hot-footing away from Tenorio's jabs & overhands but not punishing him with anything. Just making him miss for the sake of doing so, preening himself, waving at the crowd, and circling with pot shot right jabs. Tenorio charges in and throws Wild in a headlock, and judo flips the southpaw onto the canvas. Lots of spinning free of clinches, both men sticking their heads between the ropes in the process. What a mess. Tenorio flurries in the final half-minute and manages to get Wild on the ropes. Flush right hand by Tenorio, but a counter flurry by Wild.

10-9 Wild, barely

20-17 Wild

 

Round 3

Wild is now converting himself to an orthodox stance, but seems to have no clue how to use it. Fly-swatter left hooks from way too far out, goes a whole minute failing to produce a single left jab. Returns to southpaw. Tenorio is wailing on the body with trawling floor-scrapers. Head clash, ref pushes them apart. Tenorio pushes a left jab up from a crouch just as Wild noodles out a right, and their arms collide in midair, resulting in both only landing partially. Big fat left hook off the hip by Tenorio, crashing into Wild's cheek. Wild clinches. Wild paints the body with light daubs from both sides as he stays in close and smothers Tenorio.

10-9 Wild, close and ugly again (whole fight has been, aside from the KD, you could reasonably have scored two in a row now for Tenorio and have it 28 apiece)

30-26 Wild

 

Round 4

Wild is sticking his tongue out, the little jerk. Tenorio is squatting low, feet wide apart, legs forming a trapezoidal base, guard up, peering intently at Wild, looking to load up a HUGE right hand. Tenorio lobs a few and just barely misses as Wild cavorts around recklessly with his arms down. Tenorio looking for a bailout KO punch. Time out to fix loose tape on Tenorio's glove. They resume and Tenorio is bombing away, overhands now. Wild is pawing right jabs and Tenorio now slips them on the outside and does a bit of shimmying & showboating of his own in mockery of Wild. Tenorio brawls his way inside, trapping Wild in a corner and forcing a clinch. Tenorio whipping the body with both hands beneath Wild's elbows. Counter uppercuts by Wild sagging into the ropes, but Tenorio is bashing down on him with huge left hooks.

10-9 Tenorio, clearest round of the fight.

39-36 Wild

 

You could honestly score this for Tenorio by a point, 38-37, and it a) wouldn't be a robbery and b) would serve Wild right for being such a little punk, costing his zero...

Ken Gonzáles Jordan vs. Macrea Acapulco Gandionco, 10 rounds @ super bantamweight

 

Round 1

Gandionco is cautiously floating a right jab and tilting his neck in and to his right, staying offline from Jordan's straight orthodox punches. Feeling out process in the first minute. Jordan fakes with a jab to make Gandionco duck and then clouts him with a hammering right on the point of the crown. Gandionco is able to pick off some of Jordan's left jabs on his right palm and find a home for his own left plugging the body. A bit of jabbing patty-cake at mid-range. Nice combo from Gandionco, hurtling inside with a lead right hook buried into the guard at chest height, but it proves to be a diversion as he skewers Jordan with a hard straight left on the navel. Jordan calm & composed but not doing much.

10-9 Gandionco, close

 

Round 2

Gandionco is diving in, looking for body shots, but Jordan is sidestepping and hacking down with the right hand - but missing in turn as Gandionco swerves aside. Not really anything clean in the first minute. Gandionco puts his right glove up to his ear and sashays in, hoping to post up against Jordan and dig in with body shots, but Jordan surprises him with a short two-piece and scores a flash knockdown. Gandionco is backed into the corner and ducks away, getting chopped behind the head on the way out. Gandionco still might be seeing little cartoon birdies. Jordan in hot pursuit, but is flipped onto the ropes in a quick reversal with Gandionco ploughing the abdomen with hard straights. Lulling double right jab by Gandionco trotting in, followed by a left uppercut on the belt line. Nice turnaround by Gandionco after being dropped.

10-8 Jordan

19-18 Jordan

 

MUCH better fight than its predecessor.. by every metric: entertainment value, dignity/gravitas, and skill level.

 

Round 3

HUGE body shots by Jordan now, hunkering down and throwing gourd-like lefts into the side. Gandionco answers in kind with several hard full-torque body shots of his own. They stand toe-to-toe in a corner and trade downstairs with a few head shots mixed in, until Jordan comes up with a MASSIVE right uppercut on the solar plexus that leaves Gandionco gasping on his knees (and then a stool) for several minutes afterward.

KO3!!!

 

BJW falls well short of making this list, btw.

Ken Jordan is...eh, borderline.
