Emanuel Navarrete Martínez vs. Rubén Villa IV & Zhanibek Alimkhanuly vs. Gonzalo Gastón Coria RBR

Round 4

Navarrete is lazily roping up the left jab, then carrying the arm by his side as he ambles in toward Villa following a few jogging hops from side to side to get the blood flowing. Villa is sticking the right jab in from mid-range, threading needle with it between Navarrete's arms, never keeping himself too set for too long, and creating distance the second he touches Navarrete. Short combinations by Villa, using lateral movement, walking Navarrete onto right jabs and feinting with a left uppercut. He finally unloads with it - and Navarrete throws a left hook simultaneously and slams Villa up off his feet and onto the canvas again!!! Villa up, clinching, then running. Navarrete just chucking arm-punch bombs, no urgency.

10-8 Navarrete

39-35 Navarrete

 

That was a CLEAR round for Villa before that happened, too. :

 

Round 5

Villa is sending left hands in parabolas up and then in & down into Navarrete's face on the backfoot. Navarrete is simply raising his left arm off his flank, not snapping a jab but just pushing into Villa's right jab to deflect it up & away. Navarrete taking swipes at the body with left upper-hooks chasing Villa into the ropes, until the latter springs off them and in to briefly clinch. Navarrete won't be contained, muscling free and continuing to apply inexorable pressure as Villa boxes to survive.

10-9 Navarrete

49-44 Navarrete
