José Zepeda vs. Ammeth Díaz & Juan Carlos Sánchez Jr. vs. Jhon Gemino RBR

This one should be good.

 

Or, um, short.

 

Crazy. On paper Díaz was a much liver dog than Gemino.

 

I'd still love to see a Flanagan vs. Zepeda II. Not sure if Chon is still able to make lightweight, though. He fought Jose Alfaro in October at 142 and this was at 140.

 

Swing bout coming up.

 

Ismael Camacho vs. Benjamin Chavez, 6 rounds @ bantamweight

 

Camacho really laboring to get rid of Chavez. A minute left, don't think he will.

 

Chino isn't much of a prospect.

Round 1

Díaz is shooting his jab to catch Zepeda's. Quick sideways tilts of the upper body to slip jabs by Díaz. Zepeda is keeping himself turned so that only his right shoulder points toward Díaz, and leads with range-finding jabs and swatting right hooks moving in. Díaz swerves to his right to dodge a jab and plants a right hand on the chest. Zepeda is backed up by a jab on the mouth. Another right on the chest by Díaz plunging in. Díaz is hopping in place every couple of steps, moving left. Zepeda times Díaz's lateral movement and nails him with a solid left hand down the middle. Another. Díaz is hurt. Zepeda paws with some jabs and stuffs a few left crosses into Díaz's torso. Huge left cross on the belly and Díaz is caught with his back on the ropes and goes down. He stands but turns his back on the ref, who immediately waves it off.

KO1!!

 

That was a perfect body shot KO, and showed that Zepeda has wrinkles to his game in addition to power. Beautifully set up, broke down a game and crafty vet in no time.
