R6 Dirrell 10-9

Dirrell has very good reflexes and speed and seems to have found a formula landing lead lefts and jabs.

 

Dirrell looks like he came out cold but he's finding his range and timing.

 

Impressive adjustments by Dirrell. He's just outboxing Uzcategui nicely now. Uzcategui looking to counter. Right there with the pressure but Dirrell not in front of Uzcategui like he was the first couple rounds. 3-3.

 

3-3

 

Dirrell round again, looks like Uzca can't get set and get his offence going. He's being countered more often and is worried about that, he was stunned a few times with sharp Dirrell punches and now he's overthinking what to do.

 

Dirrell still has some of the fastest hands in boxing p4p

close round 7....but dirrrell round. 5-2 in rounds for dirrel

 

Anyone know what time and what card the Benavidez/Porkey fight are on?

 

Even round, both had success, but Uzca was pushing the pace looking more desperate. I'd probably give it to Dirrell he was more composed and landed some nice counters again.

 

Dirrell still controlling this and landed his cleanest punches yet. But Dirrell using a lot of energy to move and to throw this much. Uzcategui is getting closer and figured out how to time Dirrell with a few shots. I feel Uzcategui coming on hard now...

Uzcategui comes out more aggressive but Dirrell quickly regains his composure controlling the fight with his speed and reflexes. Throwing a whole combination and landing and getting out before Uzcategui could react. Uzcategui lands a good shot towards the end of the round. Close round, Dirrell edges it.

 

Dirrell looks super fast and sharp still. His chin is just too suspect though.
