    If they end this because of the hematoma in the next few rounds, it definitely will be a veteran move by Jack Reiss. I think he knows Hovhannisyan deserves at the very least a technical decision based on his performance so far and didn’t want to rob the fighter of that a round early due to an accidental butt.

    I mean this is happening in a forest too, for all the good ESPN has done it under-promoting it. (live broadcast on the internet only; tape-delayed broadcast - disingenuously listed as live - starting at midnight)

    Damn Vargas must have took a part of Rios soul.

    Round 5

    Ríos is breathing in and out through his mouth, dragging his feet and sweeping low hooks and uppercuts in slow motion at Hovhannisyan. Steady trickle of right hands from Hovhannisyan. Lead left hooks by Hovhannisyan; Ríos ducking them and tying up around the waist. Slower round. Both need a rest.

    10-9 Hovhannisyan

    50-45 Hovhannisyan

    Geeze, I wonder if Roach was able to work the same kind of magic in training with Quigg...

    Hovhannisyan should follow through with a few sneaky elbows or butts on that haematoma and really exacerbate that swelling.

    Round 6

    Hovhannisyan drops Ríos heavily with a right hand. Jack Reiss asks Ríos if he's sure he wants to continue. He responds in the affirmative, but his body language is flagging. Hovhannisyan is pouring on the rights in the middle of the ring. Over and over. Reiss in.

    TKO6!!

    I like Azat quite a lot and wanted him to win, but I hate to see Ronny go out like this. The fan support is probably close to 80/20 in Rios favor, he has all his family there, and it just is very painful to watch this.

    Reiss should've stopped that a fraction of a second earlier.

    So literally no one had any inkling that Azat had that kind of ceiling, or performance in him?

    Azat just steamrolled Rios, Jack Reese gave him every opportunity to get back in it. Good win for Asshat!

    As for the commercical about KingRy's first main event, I don't see a scheduled fight for him on BoxRec. There isn't even a Golden Boy card on the 22, anyone know what's up with that?

    They’ve been advertising it quite heavily. This card barely got added to BoxRec last night. I’m not sure why but it seems as though Golden Boy is dgafing about BoxRec

    With all due respect, as he brought it tonight and deserves the accolades for taking apart the man that was put in front of him; this appeared to be a husk of Ríos. I really think Vargas might have indeed wrought some psychological and lasting physical damage upon him. Reflexes are slower, punches he used to blink off are making him freeze up, and his behavior overall tonight was just bizarre. I think he's another whose style and the accumulation of punches in his career truly have ruined him young.

    I've double and triple checked (I'm a big KingRy mark) no golden boy card for that date, and no fight scheduled right now for Garcia on his page...
