Fox Sports 1 Monday Night Fights: Luis Collazo vs. Alan Sanchez RBR

Ah, so you missed this a few months ago...

 

Jairo Castaneda vs. War-ren Stewart, 4 rounds @ welterweight

 

He is still the weakest of the 2012 US Olympic squad (especially so contrasting all those who turned pro)

 

Six inch difference in there.

 

Round 1

Castaneda is whipping Stewart with his superior reach, catching him at the end of sharp left jabs and long uppercuts and teardrop right hands while dancing around him in an easy shuffle. Stewart is unable to get close, tapped on the dome at every step.

10-9 Castaneda

 

Round 2

Castaneda is keeping range with the jab and planting the knuckles of his right on Stewart's forehead when he rides the conveyor belt inside. Castaneda is staying by the ropes and working from there, holding Stewart outside but having to work to do so.

10-9 Castaneda

20-18 Castaneda

 

Round 3

Stewart is jumping in past Castaneda's jab and clobbering at him with blind shots, head down. Icepick double jab by Stewart leaping forward. Castaneda tries an uppercut to back him off. Stewart is caught with it, bowing forward, and knocked into the ropes by a succession of uppercuts. Castaneda opens up a barrage on Stewart. BIG looping right by Castaneda as they're pushing together with Stewart opening up to let both hands go. Stewart makes a face at him and pushes forward, eager for more. Right to the body by Castaneda. A pair of right hands up top by Stewart. Castaneda leans forward. Stewart dusts the back of his head.

10-9 Castaneda, stole it back in the 2nd half.

30-27 Castaneda

 

Round 4

Castaneda is forced to get both arms crossed out in front as Stewart bears into him with big hooks over the shoulders and down on the body. Castaneda jabs and backs out. Castaneda is circling right, still on his toes, looking a bit winded. Stewart keeps pressuring from below, getting a piece here and there as Castaneda is circling by, mostly getting blocked or dodged. 1-2 by Castaneda from outside, on the kisser.

10-9 Castaneda

40-36 Castaneda

 

Jairo should be embarrassed not even getting a KD.

Stylistically and dimensionally, Stewart was tailor made for him.
