86-85 Melindo

 

:nod

...and that meaty body shot about halfway in, I recall.

 

Round 10

Estrada is using body and head feints on the outside, twitching his shoulders, throwing light 1-2s as he circles. Melindo is forcing his jab up over Estrada's head and chopping and missing with the right, not appraising the distance well. Jab, uppercut, left hook, straight right by Estrada - EXCELLENT combination and it may have shaken Melindo. No, it shook the hornet's nest. He is MAD. He marches forward throwing bombs and Estrada looks alarmed but the bell sounds.

10-9 Estrada

95-95

 

Round 11

Estrada is lunging in with the right hand and then bodies up against Melindo to rest. Double jab upon separation by Estrada. Melindo is flicking single jabs, waiting on Estrada. Wild 1-2-3 by Estrada, nearly falling on his face off balance as Melindo backs up out of the way. They trade pendulums to the body, swinging their arms far out behind themselves as they press together. More inside warfare. Estrada opens up with a pair of hooks to the side of the face, landing flush. Right hand by Melindo. 1-2 by Estrada. Left hook by Melindo!! Great action, toe to toe. A minute left. They finally tire and lean together for a spell. Overhand right by Melindo. Estrada dodges moving backward. They step in close and slug to the body again. Estrada ducks a jab and lands a 1-2 when he resurfaces. Melindo DOWN off a short right hand on the inside!

10-8 Estrada

105-103 Estrada
