G+: Kenichi Ogawa Vs Roldan Aldea, Junto Nakatani Vs Naoki Mochizuki

8-Mochizuki looks to have been told to "get your ****ing head on his chest and fight", Nakatani is teeing off with uppercuts again, Mochizuki's face a blood mess now, a right from Mochizuki, and he again presses the unbeaten youngster backwards, Mochizuki is paying for his bravery and his nose is bust, his left eye is swollen, and Nakatani is looking to tag the swelling, body shot from Nakatani

****ing hell Mochizuki's face is ****ed

 

9-Nakatani looking for a finish straight away, Mochizuki holds but is on the wrong end of a big head shot and the referee steps in. Get the feeling he was looking for a reason to save Mochizuki

 

Main event time! Kenichi Ogawa (22-1-0-1, 17) Vs Roldan Aldea (12-6-1, 6)

 

1-Ogawa looking crisp and sharp straight away, Aldea coming forward but Ogawa looking to line up hos right! Bang he lands a huge on! Aldea got cheeeen! Aldea lands a left hand, "Ogawa" chant, lots here to see Crush Straight

 

2-A big body shot from Ogawa, Ogawa goes low, pace is dead here, Ogawa just misses with a right hand, Aldea misses with a left, body shots traded, "ogawa" chant, nice Ogawa jab.

 

3-Ogawa stepping it up slightly and lands an early right hand, no intensity here from either
A huge right from Ogawa, there's nothing much there, he hurts Aldea, Aldea escapes before a follow up can close things, Aldea looks open every time he throws a left to the body, a short right from Ogawa, right-left hook from Ogawa,

 

4-Ogawa on the back foot, inviting the pressure but Aldea no biting, a left from Aldea lands, another left from Aldea but nothing on them, a good right from Ogawa, and another, and one more for good measure, body shots from Ogawa, an Ogawa chant starts again,

 

5-Compubox operators would get bored here and we'd be set to see Broner's numbers look like he has a high level of activity, Aldea lands his best shot of the fight and it connects with Ogawa's balls, Ogawa lands a good right, a good body shot from Ogawa followed by a left hook up top, Ogawa begins to move up a gear but then seemingly stalls, transmission not working for Kenichi

 

Masayuki Ito in the crowd, think someone asked him if he was worried about Ogawa, as he burst out laughing knowing it would be easy work

6-Ogawa picks up the pace in the final 45 seconds in a round that really feels about as attention grabbing as the condensation on my window zzzzz

 

7-Ogawa is picking up the pace but lands low, as the referee gives Aldea time to recover his nose starts bleeding, a huge left hook followed by a right and Ogawa begins to unload, Aldea's now cut from the right eye, Ogawa looks like he's done with play time! Aldea rocked on the bell!

 

8-Ogawa is throwing bombs but they are infrequent and he's not starting this round like he ended the last one, a good left from Aldea, a good right from Ogawa but again those counting punches are sat twiddling their thumbs, what a dire round

Ogawa bleeding from the nose now too

 

9-A hard right early by Ogawa, but no intensity or fire with a follow up, and not much happening here

Not sure if Ogawa is rusty or just...complacent and putting in a dire, dire performance. Aldea is out classed, out sized and not doing much himself

 

10- A good right hook from Aldea, a good body shot from Ogawa, good head shots from Ogawa who looked like he was about to open up but chose not to, a body shot from Ogawa sees him spitting his own mouth piece out, more head shots from Ogawa and Aldea walks througfh them, loud Ogawa chant as we go to the bell...

 

I know no one cares, but if you leave these G+ cards on they fill the broadcast with about an hour of archive footage, some pretty cool stuff on them, like today's had the debuts of Kamegai AND Linares!
