    That's because the humid muggy weather keeps us sapped of our energy, we literally can't help it.:D

    I'm sitting in my side room, and the TV is in the living room on my PC, but I'm too lazy to get up and hit the mute button.:lol: I run back and forth and write my synopsis during the breaks, I prefer that to typing on a tablet.

    Yeeesh, didn't realize quite what slumps these guys were on. Since the start of 2013, Rosado is 2-6-0-1 and Tapia is 7-4 (equaling an overall losing record of 9-10-0-1), both stopped thrice.

    180 days out for Rosado, 210 for Tapia since he last stepped in the ring.

    Tapia has a 1½" advantage in reach, and Rosado ½" in height.

    Rosado has fought more than double as many professional rounds as Tapia. (more experience, but also more wear & tear in wars)

    Pretty even match-up, this.

    Robert Byrd is like a much less cuddly (and utterly humorless) Steve Harvey with his resting state of sternly judgmental reactive facial expressions.

    Round 1

    Rosado is drawing his left glove up his thigh and launching jabs from his rib. Tapia is circling and lining up pot shot 1-2s as he turns Rosado. Body jab by Tapia backing Rosado up. Tapia is changing directions on the outside as Rosado flicks the air with jabs, testing for response. Tapia is deflecting jabs with his left glove while backing up, jogging in place after creating some distance. Poolcue right hand on the chest by Rosado drilling Tapia into the ropes.

    10-9 Rosado, tight

    Round 2

    Rosado is setting the pace, using a drop-shoulder stance while baiting Tapia at mid-range, keeping the left hand low, jabbing high to set up body combos. Tapia is ducking and rolling and throwing hooking sequences with both hands, low to high. Rosado is catching him with stiff jabs coming in. Tapia's nose bleeding, very badly. Rosado drills Tapia into a corner and gets hit with return shots. He is hurt. Rosado is mauling him. Punches landing and Rosado then driving his shoulder into Tapia, pinning him. Tapia's gum shield out. Time in. Reset in the middle of the ring. Flush straight right hand lead by Rosado. Chopping right by Rosado. Hooking flurries by Tapia.

    10-9 Rosado, close, finished stronger

    20-18 Rosado
