Luís Miguel Concepción Montiel vs. Rober Antonio Barrera Estrada RBR

Carlos Alexis Ortega Badillo vs. Leyman Alberto Benavides Calero, 12 rounds @ minimumweight

 

Yeah, seriously... 14-footer?

I seriously think if both fighters were to lay down lengthwise (so the first guy's toes brushing against the hair of the other, whose own would be under the bottom rope) there would only be like a yard left before you hit the opposite set of ropes.

 

These guys have combined for eight stoppages in 45 bouts. Guess we're probably getting eleven more rounds of this..

 

Curious what the judges' cards were in Concepción vs. Barrera heading into R11. They didn't show a graphic with them, did they?

Nothing on BoxRec yet. (not even the result)

 

Majority of cards I've translated from Spanish on Twitter had people with Concepción a point or two up after ten. Apparently he knocked Barrera down in the second and it was tooth and nail the rest of the way thereafter.

 

This fight is fast paced, but I wouldn't say good.

 

Heating up a little in the sixth, now that both are focusing on (and getting bent in half from each other's) body work.

 

Sho nuff..

 

Wasn't actively scoring but El Fenix seemed to consistently get the jump on El Arañita, finding the mark cleaner and more often.

I'd be a little surprised if this went Ortega's way.

 

Official cards:

first two were identical, but I missed the numbers...
118-109

UD for Benavides

 

Interesting...he actually trailed on all three.

The cards do not lie: at the height of the eleventh assault, the only way the Panamanian Luis “El Nica” Concepción had to keep the victory was if he knocked out the Colombian Rober Barrera. In the end he got it. Photos from @hectordeportes and @anayansigamez https://t.co/m087CUMwUK

 

Matellón vs. García is the main event, to my understanding. Crazy that we have two more championship length fights and the current local time in Panama is the same as here in Boston, half past midnight. The people in attendance will be leaving the venue at like 2am!
