GBP on ESPN2: Lamont Roach, Jr. vs. Orlando Iván Cruz & José López vs. Miguel Ángel González RBR

In progress, 3 rounds in:

José López vs. Miguel Ángel González, 10 rounds @ super featherweight

 

Fourth was close, edge López.

 

4th & 5th to Wonder Boy although Miguelito is applying some good pressure, let's see if his gas tank holds up in the second half so that his investment to López's body can pay dividends...

 

Huh, weird, so López is the boricua, González the Mexican - but the latter is the one that came up worshipful of Miguel Cotto (and even got a chest tattoo matching Junito's)

 

B-Hop thinks López can & should get the stoppage if he settles down and keeps steadily, carefully putting leather on González from the outside.

 

Ah, thanks, was just researching that. Had to wonder, being that Miguel is co-promoting this event.

 

...btw, @Drew101 - aren't you supposed to have assigned me a new avatar? Did you already pick one? If so I've not seen wherever you told me what.

 

Wonder Boy getting on his bicycle in the eighth (sort of like DLH vs. Tito with the nationalities of the roles inverted), sticking long jabs and ramming his left forearm into the side of Miguelito's head with stunted hooks as the Mexican crashes into him while catapulting into the ropes in vain attempts to pin him down.

 

B-Hop remarking, curiously, that López shouldn't be overconfident in the lead he believes himself to have on points (with the shades of, like I said above, his business partner's fight with a famous countryman of López's...)
