Carlos Adames Altagracia vs. Julian Taige Williams & Fernando D. Martínez vs. Jade Dajay Bornea RBR

Martínez just cutting through Filipino super flies like a hot knife through butter his last three performances. I don't think Astrolabio nor Gaballo would fare any better. The whole country should just concede "division's all yours, buddy (as far as we're concerned)".

Which brings me to now having to mull over the possibility of tonight's Martínez vs. this morning's Ioka...whoo, boy...

 

Judges had 98-92 and 97-93 x2 (also Farhood's score) for Martínez as of the stoppage.

 

I just clicked on Ancajas' name and the button for the rest of the country on BoxRec, apparently they list him at 118 now.

Okay so at 115 there is Nietes, at least one guy that Martínez probably wouldn't just slice & dice, although he is getting up there in age.

 

Erickson Nick Lubin vs. Luís Arias, 10 rounds @ middleweight

 

This isn't even a goddamned eliminator, just a mundane 10-rounder. Such a slap in the face of Martínez and Bornea.

"Special attraction" my balls.

 

Meaning the fight just now in progress or the main event to follow?

 

Round 1

Lubin feeding out that southpaw jab sidearm, into the chin and chest of Arias. Counter left jabs or straight rights from Arias occasionally getting through as he slouches over to his right, shoulders hiked up tensely but the rest of his muscles loose & fluid. Lubin feinting the jab and then cracking around the gloves with right hooks and left hands pelting the side of Arias' head.

10-9 Lubin, close
