Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. vs. Peter Manfredo Jr. RBR

Yeah, that makes no sense.

Velasquez won at least the two rounds (second and third), with one of them being a mandatory 10-8.

 

It became an old-timey "boxing on the radio" event for about five minutes.

 

I am 100% serious when I say that with a good full training camp Diamante Marquez could lift a world title belt off K9 Bundrage.

 

Alex Saucedo vs. Cedric Sheppard, 4 rounds @ welterweight

 

Sheppard is the "local" boy. (actually from Austin, not Houston)

He brought a vocal cheering section.

His nickname is "Pretty Boy".

He wears a hooded robe, looking ominous.

It comes off, and he's got TATTOOS! :scaredas:

He debuted in October and got shut out.

 

Round 1

Saucedo rips Sheppard with some high left hooks and backs him up across the ring. Reaching rights by Saucedo. Lean-in by Saucedo. Sheppard circles in both directions, staying outside. BIG double left hook lands to the ribs and cheekbone by Saucedo. Big right hands by Saucedo! Sheppard is about to go 0-2. Sheppard circles right, then left, then right, then left, then right, then left. Saucedo ignores the excess movement and takes aim with a big RIGHT!! KO!!

Sheppard was up at the count of nine, but TOO LATE in the opinion of the ref.
