...worse, his chief second responded "I KNOW" as if they had already been aware of Rees' impaired vision after the ninth, meaning they are repeatedly sending him out blind...

Round 12

Buckland and Rees are both throwing power shots as they come together, both eating as well as they give. Tape on Rees' glove needs fixing. Time in. Long jab flicked up by Rees, almost a glove-touch but Buckland ignores it and comes in with a straight combo led by a right on the body. Rees is ducking with hands down, slipping Buckland's jab on the outside. Rees comes up from a crouch and lands a high left hook on the jaw. Buckland tries to whip down at Rees with both arms but eats another hook. Rees pushes forward and ties up. Scrappy. Buckland flurries over Rees' head as Rees ducks and slices the body. Big hooks up top by Rees. Buckland is perhaps rocked, stumbling outside to reset. Right hand by Buckland. Looping right by Rees leaning forward, head directly in the path of Buckland's light flurries.
