ESPN2 FNF: Delvin Rodriguez vs. George Tahdooahnippah RBR

Bayan Jargal vs. Chris Howard, 10 rounds @ lightweight

 

Round 1

Howard jabs into Jargal's face. Jargal throws big hooks upstairs and rights to the body. Howard is backed up as Jargal stalks in and turns over a jab. Howard marches around Jargal with his shoulder lowered and upper body twisted away, trying to time him with jabs as Jargal charges in with the hook.

10-9 Jargal

 

Round 2

Jargal is reaching across with thudding left hooks to the body and head. Howard has a very tight posture, tiptoeing around Jargal and flashing out jabs and short straight combos darting in. Jargal is pushing ahead and catching shots on his upturned right glove, pawing with his jab to get close. Howard doubles his jab while circling away and ducking. Jargal lets his arm fall into the path of Howard's jab to knock it down. Howard keeps his shoulders pinched together and head sunk down like a turtle, falling in with jabs and rights up top before leaning against Jargal.

10-9 Jargal

20-18 Jargal

 

Delvin Rodriguez says he needs to redefine himself and prove himself to the fans with an impressive showing to erase the memory of his last impression. (the loss to Austin Trout)

He is aware that Tahdooahnippah is strong and can punch hard, and that he comes forward throwing crazy right hand haymakers. He is ready for him.

 

:nono ESPN2.

 

Oh boy, we just got a sneak peek of how Atlas is going to butcher Tahdooahnippah's name.

Tappa-Nappa.

 

Round 3

Jargal is jabbing over Howard's head as he ducks. Howard slips punches with his knees bent deeply while sliding over to one side. They trade hooks, with Howard climbing up Jargal's body with his and taking a few back across the top of the head. Howard circles at mid-range, peering between ihs gloves at Jargal. Left hook to the body by Howard. Jargal paws a few jabs coming forward. Howard scrapes his ribs with another low hook. They trade jabs and Howard gets in a left hook across the mouth of Jargal. Howard lines up a 1-2 as Jargal is telegraphing a jab, and Jargal is KNOCKED OUT BY A RIGHT HAND! :shock:

KO3!
