Gilberto Ramírez Sánchez vs. Chris Billam-Smith & Oscar Manuel Collazo vs. Thammanoon Niyomtrong RBR

Duarte seems to be struggling with the stances. Akhmedov is keeping him off balance with footwork and looping punches.

1-0 Akhmedov
Duarte barely threw a punch for the first 2 minutes. Duarte finished the round well as he got a bit of a read on Akhmedov.
This will be a good one.

 

Good stuff.

 

1-0 Akhmedov.

 

1-0 Akhmedov, close

 

Didn't Barrios knock him down twice?

 

Yeah, it was pretty tough fight for both.

 

Yup, got back up both times. He has been knocked down in at least 1 more fight and he got back up then.
Dude is though.

 

No better fight than one where both guys want to hold the centre of the ring and exchange.

 

2-0 Akhmedov

 

Round 2
Akhmedov 10-9
19-19

 

2-0 Akhmedov

 

Akhmedov landing more, Duarte landing heavier.
They spent the entirety of the round in punching distance.

2-0 Akhmedov, close rounds

 

What are people's predictions for the main then? Zurdo 116-112 type fight?

 

Two freight trains going at it.

 

2-1 Akhmedov. Better round for Duarte In the 3rd, I thought he nixed the round.
