Juan Francisco Estrada vs. Hernán Márquez RBR

The Jerry-curled Nicaraguan is tough..

 

Round 3

Bendaña is soaking up 1-2s and looking for a home for the left hook and hybrid upper-hook. Bendaña is taking wide low swings at the body. Berchelt gallops in with a jab and floats outside. Body hooks from mid-range by Berchelt. Combinations by Berchelt now, forcing Bendaña to either trade or cover up. Bendaña hurt by a left hook on the liver. Bendaña backs into the ropes. Big flurry by Berchelt. Bendaña is down until siete. Up. Still winded. More body hooks by Berchelt at the ten-second clap. Bendaña toughs it out. 1-2 on the chin by Berchelt.

10-8 Berchelt

30-26 Berchelt

 

Excellent chin, but apparently Bendaña can't take it downstairs. Now that Berchelt knows that, it shouldn't go much longer...

 

Round 4

Bendaña is going for broke, throwing haymakers. Berchelt steps back and counters. Berchelt is putting out the 1-2 and following up with a stiff jab, driven through with his full body weight planted on his left foot. Bendaña is coming in with his arms folded against himself, bowed slightly, throwing short flurries and then hiding in his peekaboo. Big hooks on the body by Berchelt, affecting Bendaña visibly, shifting him. Nice right hand by Bendaña. Berchelt lands his own lead right and follows with a jab on the kisser, dancing to his left. Bendaña keeps swarming in. Combinations on the face by Berchelt. Two-fisted body attack by Berchelt, in and out. Bendaña throws wild uppercuts at the body but is backed into the ropes by a series of HARD piercing 1-2-1-2s. Berchelt just teeing off with crisp straight punches, and mixing in body hooks.

10-9 Berchelt

40-35 Berchelt

 

Bendaña's iron chin is fascinating, but I'm switching back over to PBC to see Prince Charles Martin. He should get rid of Sandez in plenty of time for me to get back here for the main event. :good

Did Rocky quit or did Alacran force a ref stoppage (or actually drop him again)?

 

Érik Morales in studio looking...actually kind of svelte. :think

Way less fat than usual nowadays.

 

What am I looking at?
