VERY LONG ring walk. :dead

 

Diablo is out to Thunderstruck by AC/DC.

Wow, yeah. His wound up being much longer.

They only played like half the song for Wlodarczyk.

 

Anthems. Quality versions of both.

 

Round 1

Palacios jabs first. Palacios is much taller and stringier. Wlod comes forward, guard tight. Palacios is loose and fluid on the outside, hopping around and rolling his shoulders. Lead right hands from Palacios, getting through but not much on them. There's a nice snappy 1-2 by Palacios. Wlod comes forward and takes a left hook to the stomach, under his guard. Wlod pokes with his jab, first high and then to the body. Palacios loading up on right hand leads but hitting Wlod's guard and not slowing him dow much. Wlod keeps cautiously making his way forward, not punching. Poles going crazy, yelling and clapping to encourage Wlod. Palacios is against the ropes, bobbing and weaving but Wlod isn't even throwing anything. Palacios jabs, slaps with a right hand over the guard. Wlod keeps pressuring w/o punching. Palacios jabs straight and then leaps in with an uppercut to the body before darting back outside. Palacios jabs and moves off to his left. Palacios outboxing Wlod right now. Flurry to the head by Palacios, and Wlod catches him with one right hand and the crowd goes insane.

10-9 Palacios

 

Round 2

Palacios jabs up high. Palacios takes the scenic route around the very large ring. Wlod isn't cutting it off well. Finally Wlod catches Palacios sliding along the ropes with a big right hand. Wlod keeps inching forward. Palacios is jabbing out hard and straight with full extension before leaping backward. Wlod reaching out, missing with his jab. Wlod drops the jab to the body and lands it. Slapping 1-2 by Palacios. Wlod catches a straighter 1-2 between the gloves. Wlod is getting cheered whenever he throws his right hand but isn't landing it much. Palacios doubles a jab-feint and digs a right to the body. Palacios moving around very well. Wlod just plodding, rocking along from rear heel to front toe. Palacios is still outboxing him. Palacios moves left and right around the ring, avoiding the corners and staying in position to let out his long jab. At the end of the round Palacios misses a giant left hook and Wlod partially lands a right hand, with the crowd booming.
