UD for Patera

Wow, the right man arguably won, but those scorecards were ridiculous.

 

They're in Round 3 at the moment. Sorry, I had to talk to someone on the phone. I mam human.

Round 1 Scardina 10-9
Round 2 Scardina 10-8
Round 3 Scardina 10-9
Round 4 Scardina 10-9

Scardina evidently hurt him in the 2nd, but his corner told him to take his foot off the gas, he's boxing off the back foot, playing it safe but winning the rounds. The first three the commentators gave to Scardina. So aside from the fourth, I'm basing my scorecard on their assessment.

Achercui starting to do his best imitation of a featherfisted David Lemieux and is starting to outwork Daniele. He landed enough overhands and hooks to the body to nick the 6th as well.

Round 7 Achergui 10-9

Not sure what Scardina is doing here. He's going through the motions and jabbing well, meanwhile Ilias is gaining confidence and starting to walk him down and beat him up. Getting in a lot of hooks. Although Ilias walked into a shot late and got rocked. Damn close round, it could go either way. I thought Ilias outworked him.

 

Rammstein's Auslander playing in the background!

Similar pattern as the last few rounds. Daniele jabbing non stop. Ilias landing overhands. Daniele sits down on a right and rocks him. Ilias pins him on the ropes lands a flurry. Close back and forth round. Ilias won it on activity for me.

Ilias launches a sustained attack, rocking Scardina with a few hooks up top. Scardina nails him with two hard rights. It's a phone booth fight now. Scardina starting to get the best of it. Landing the heavier shots at range and in close now. Ilias pushing him back late, nicked it with activity. Still a close one.
