    My man. Standing in ankle deep water, still watching the fight. Solid.

    i didnt find the fight as close as the commentary

    though i think the 119-109 is way too wide. I dont necessarily hate the 117-111 score either

    not much of a fight, Soto shows a lot of good skills with his up jab, left hook, ducking and slipping but he doesnt turn it up

    Neither guy got out of 1st or 2nd gear

    I'm actually really pumped about Ellis vs. Rocha, and while everyone is reflexively thinking it'll be an easy win for Rashidi, because Rocha looked terrible in winning over Solomon, but I don't agree with that. Ellis has been matched quite soft and his best win is still Gomez, he looked average against Sosa and I think he's going to struggle mightily tonight and wilt late and lose by TKO. Ellis isn't very heavy handed, Rocha seems to have solid whiskers and brings decent pressure, who I think will get to him late.

    id like to see soto in with a very aggressive fighter who will push the pace and force him to adjust

    im not sure if his lack of urgency can carry him through a tough fight

    I think Rocha's gonna bring it. Ellis clearly pissed him off in their DAZN face to face show. I think Ellis might be overlooking this guy a little

    Garcia is a little big for lightweight. He'll probably grow up a few weight classes.

    I saw it close but I'm glad someone disinterested saw it wide.

    Round 1 Ellis 10-9

    Close back and forth action, but the volume from Ellis nicked it, but Rocha doing well cutting off the ring, and landed several thudding straight lefts.

    1. 10-9 Ellis

    It feels like if Rocha could move his feet a little better he could exploit that wide stance.
