R3 Uzcategui 10-9

Uzcategui landed the telling blows. Dirrell not finding his range and not landing much.

 

I get the sense that Dirrell's expierence will mean he will end up edging this, he makes Uzcategui miss a fair bit.

 

All rounds but the 2nd competitive but I think it's clearly 3-1 Uzcategui.

Dirrell landing shots here and there doing better. Uzcategui caught looking most of the time.

 

Good use of jabs coming from different angles by Dirrell in the 5th. Dirrell controlled it on the outside. 3-2 Uzcategui.

 

Dirrell timing Uzca well now, Uzca is starting to respect Dirrell's power as he's been on the end of some sharp counters, this is a key period can Dirrell keep this up.
