DKP: Trevor Cosmo Bryan, Jr. vs. Bermane Stiverne RBR

Both men in the ring.

 

Nate just got real street when the play by play guy said after introducing the judges, "but I think we're going to get a knockout"

YEAH BOIII

 

Micah "The Voice" Lee, sporting big retro pink shades and with a crutch under one arm, just showed up at ringside awkwardly lurching with a mic in hand, prompting the ring announcer to interrupt the fighter introductions so Lee could wheeze out the national anthem.

Golf clap from the fighters' corners and cameramen.

Jesus, this..

 

Bermane looks kind of bummed out, almost embarrassed... dude are you about to go in the damn tank?? One last shenanigan for King...

 

Bryan is advantaged with 2" in height and 12 years of age, but is giving up 2" in reach.

 

Round 1

Stiverne is pawing out a left jab and then raising both gloves in fixed position next to each other, as though clutching a rollercoaster safety rail, up by his nose, then lowering them down to his gut when he takes a backward step to conserve his energy. Bryan is reaching in & down with double and triple jabs, grunting with them as he stuffs them past Stiverne's right fist to embed them into his thick neck. Stiverne is able to duck and weave away from a couple of jabs and stick a few straights into Bryan's pecs, but the younger man steps in and whips a few underhanded combos into Stiverne's midsection to back him up. Stiverne tries coming forward and wings a big overhand right while crowding Bryan into the ropes, but misses by a lot, with minimal defensive maneuvering required on Bryan's part, just a casual lean against the uppermost rope.

10-9 Bryan, close

 

Round 2

Stiverne is stalking, but reining up short within a pace or two and letting Bryan score with jabs and body combos as he freezes up with indecision. Stiverne finally commits and clocks Bryan with an overhand right dipping all the way in. He scores a couple more of them in glancing fashion, putting some concern on Bryan's face and causing him to backpedal. Stiverne putting up goalposts and picking off Bryan's head shots, then catching most of the body flurries on his elbows when Bryan switches tacks, and is clobbering Bryan on the dome with high macing shots.

10-9 Stiverne

19-19
