    ...or, both have good chins.

    Escalera made it eight rounds with Edwin Rodriguez and was stopped on his feet...

    Is Danny Jacobs the favorite tomorrow? Is there a change he gets "Pirog'd"

    Round 6

    Nemesapati is jogging backward, flipping up jabs. Overhand rights soaring in by Escalera, switching to uppercuts on the inside. Nemesapati is rocked and shaky on his legs as he backs up, but recovers. Escalera keeps walking through jabs, sometimes shoving them aside with both arms held out, and works the body with uppercuts while forcing Nemesapati's guard to rise with those headhunting looping rights on the outside.

    10-9 Escalera

    59-53 Escalera

    Jarrod Fletcher isn't Dmitry Pirog.


    ****, he ain't even Grzegorz Proksa.


    ****, he ain't even Kerry Hope. Well, maybe. About that level.

    Round 7

    Nemesapati is backing up and sticking his left arm straight out, not quite jabbing but cleaving down lightly with sword-like motions from the side that are not quite hooks either. Escalera shoves his way through Nemesapati's plastic sword hacks and works his squat-in jab on the body to set up his overhand right on the face, knocking loose Nemesapati's gum shield.

    10-9 Escalera

    69-62 Escalera

    Round 8

    Nemesapati is leaning forward, trying to position his chin on Escalera's chest, twisting his body to slip Escalera's short inside punches while dancing out for room to get off. Nemesapati is whacking the body and flailing up top as he presses in close. Nemesapati is selling out looking for the KO. Escalera grinds in and contains Nemesapati, then pushes him away with both hands and works the body until the bell.

    10-9 Escalera

    79-71 Escalera
