Luis Concepción vs. Duvan Hernandez RBR

I just read a user comment on their own website suggesting it was a conscious decision on the part of TV Max to not make this broadcast internationally available outside of Panama.

That is a real pity. They provided a great service in the past doing so, and were the only means of watching some decent fights including a couple of El Nica's. Shame if they discontinue the practice altogether.

 

The fight still hasn't started yet, per Twitter...both men are now in the ring after some drawn-out ring walks and pageantry...

I've been holding out hope they would open up the feed to non-Panamanians, but alas, seems it just won't be happening.

Damn it.


Time for bed.

 

Several people on Twitter gave the 1st to Hernandez.


...and those are Panamanians! (since nobody outside the country is able to watch this)

 

Big right hook KD by Concepción at the end of the 2nd. Hernandez is reportedly cut on the eyebrow and looking dazed, and saved by the bell.

19-18 Concepción, going by Twitter.

 

:hi:

Have fun, uh, reading about this one (and translating from Spanish)

 

The fans in Panama have Concepción winning the 4th narrowly and 3rd clearly but are making frequent comments about him totally eschewing defense or not being fated to have a long career, much as he does entertain them.

So this could be close with the knockdown making the difference on an unbiased card. (which none of these can really be trusted as being)

 

A sports media outlet based in Panama gives Hernandez the 6th based on more efficient work despite lower output, and reports the crowd is unhappy and booing.

 

Concepción beats Hernandez via KO7.


The official time was 2:28.

 

...and the new WBC Silver 115lb champion...

 

Highlights (the most any of us living outside Panama are going to get, unless someone from there recorded it & uploads more):
