Joseph Obey Joyce vs. Armand Carlos Netsing Takam & Chris Jenkins vs. Ekow Essuman RBR.

Round 1 Essuman 10-9, close
Round 2 Essuman 10-9
Round 3 Jenkins 10-9, close

Another close one, but I thought Jenkins counters and jab was more effective early on. It could've gone either way.

Round 2 Essuman 10-9
Round 3 Jenkins 10-9, close
Round 4 Essuman 10-9

Essuman seemed to rock Jenkins, then followed up with a flurry. Pace slows. Jenkins tries to press forward, Essuman countering him well off the backfoot. Landing nice looping hooks and an occasional uppercut.

 

The commentators are being relentlessly negative. Not sure why they're holding both of them to such an inhuman standard. I guess that's the expectations game gone awry. Look it isn't the "barnstormer" you thought it was going to be, now get over it.

Round 5 Jenkins 10-9, close

The pace has slowed, Essuman doing little, both falling short with their jabs. Jenkins probably landed the cleaner work that round.

Round 6 Essuman 10-9

Essuman now lunging in looping hooks to the head and to the body. While trying to remain just out of range. Essuman also outjabbing him, Jenkins looking slower and sloppier. Essuman starting to land in combination.

 

We're all kinds of out of sync today.

Essuman starting to walk him down and beat him up now. Still being wary and cautious. But outworked Jenkins easily.

 

Finally we're on the same page.
