Jessica Chávez vs. Esmeralda Moreno II

Kika fighting on instinct now, very little on her punches.

 

That girl's nose is SHATTERED. How is she even breathing?

Seriously, there's plasma just pooling over her mouth at either corner, in big reservoirs an inch or more in diameter, and streaking crimson across her cheeks.

 

Talking heads now have it 86-85 Moreno, her first lead of the night on their unofficial tabulation.

 

Chávez desperate to hold and Moreno just uppercutting the hell outta her. :bbb

Moreno clobbers her with a big right hand for good measure in the closing seconds as the fatigued Chávez was diving in to encircle her waist in her arms.

 

Well, the second half of this was clearly dominated by Moreno. If she took even one in the early going she ought to have the WBC female world flyweight title and the distinction of having twice bested Chávez.

Absolute worst case for her is a draw, so no revenge for Kika tonight unless there's a MAJOR robbery.

 

They're showing highlights from each round now. Chávez, interestingly, was the one initiating (some fairly blatant) headbutts early on. Moreno has an iron chin and some tough skin.

 

Official cards:

Euberto Diaz 96-94 Chávez
Fernando Barbosa 96-94 Moreno
Jesus Arroza 97-93

...MD for Chávez atsch

 

Yeah. 97-93 Chávez is downright impossible. She got beaten up like the new girl in prison (with Moreno queen of the cell block) for the last five in a row.
