DKP: Adrien Jerome Broner vs. William Hutchinson & Guillermo Rigondeaux Ortíz vs. Charles Andino RBR

Sausage Herb not wowing me. He towers over "Bam-Bam" Pérez (on BoxRec they're listed as 5'11" and 5'6" respectively) but giving up that height, dropping his rear hand when he jabs, walking straight inside but never being first to let hands go, always on a delay.

Almost more of a dud A-side than Bostic.

 

Galaxxxy Warrior favoring Pérez in the last few rounds, sees him ahead.

 

This cat Hutchinson never been stopped, nor down that I can tell - but, his opposition has been dreadful. Four career draws, and three of those against dudes with losing records, so he isn't somebody that really impresses judges very often. And he doesn't even have a big puncher's record, either.

If he doesn't get a stoppage or a shutout, Broner should retire. Can't make a firm prediction on which, though, because it all depends on how lazy he feels like being.

 

Fennell keeps going down on these weird ambiguous push-downs that just happen to be preceded by hard body shots that make him double over. So far the ref hasn't ruled one against him, calling them all slips/shoves.

Both tired.

 

Absolutely is - but if AB decides to crank up the heat and show out, the gulf in class is enormous so the stoppage is there if he wants it.

 

I do not disagree, but it seems the bookies might, as he's nearly double as wide a favorite as Rigondeaux (who looked dangerous his last time out, if not quite vintage).

...or maybe his opponent is perceived as being just twice as crappy as Rigo's? Idk, they're both jabronis.

 

Three card shutout, 80-72 Pérez.

 

Boom-Boom is such a useless commentator now. He used to be pretty good, but now content to just take a backseat and shrug "yep" until he's directly put on the spot with a non-yes-or-no question.

 

Adlay Alejandro Rodríguez Licea vs. Raúl García Jr., 6 rounds @ welterweight

 

Adlay Rodríguez is an eighteen year old Cuban southpaw, 4-0, all by KO, trained by Ronnie Shields. (whom Nate Campbell says is the only trainer he was ever "terrified of")

Raúl García Jr. is 2-8, stopped five times, and giving up five inches here. Bro's getting murked; don't blink.

 

Okay yeah, that's serious pop. Rodríguez stalked for a minute, wisely hitting the body as his prey scampered around, weaving side to side, guard up - then stepped in and hit García with a quick flurry of right hooks and left hands, didn't even sit down on any of them and put him on Q Street. Moments later, another knockdown. In the state of Florida, three KD rule in effect - and the fight is stopped on #3 soon enough.

KO1!
