Miguel Beltran Jr. vs. Carlos Diaz Ramirez & Raul Hirales vs. Fernando Vargas II RBR

Round 6

Jabs traded. Ramirez backs away. Clinch as Beltran jabs in. Beltran is throwing huge showstoppers, getting a bit reckless and missing a few. Ramirez is ducking in and clinching. Ref breaks 'em. Double jab by Beltran. Left uppercut off a jab by Beltran. Ramirez clinches. Break. Overhand right by Beltran. Right to the body by Ramirez. BIG right uppercut by Beltran. Ramirez spins Beltran onto the ropes. Body shots by Ramirez. Beltran is looking to counter with a flurry off the ropes but Ramirez tattoos him with a hard power shoeshine. Ramirez falls and lays flat on his back, gum shield spat out.

TKO6!!

 

That was an insane come from behind knockout.

 

Flub.


"Beltran finishes the round working Ramirez over with left hooks downstairs and chopping rights only partially caught on the guard."

This was brutal to call, at 1am, after several beers. Their build, haircut, skin tone and both colors of each man's trunks were virtually identical. :!: Ramirez is slightly taller, but otherwise...

 

Again? atsch

Beltran falls flat on his back.

Yeah, the kid came from behind and won...having come in on just a few days' notice. Barreterito blew it. He won five and a half rounds, was bossing Ramirez, but the moment he got spun around (once the ref moved in and pushed them apart) he got pasted. It was just a wild exchange where Diaz, for the first time all night, got the best of it with straights, hooks, and uppers, not much rhyme or reason to it and none of it landed super flush on the button, but all of a sudden Beltran just twirled down onto his back and his mouthpiece came out while he kicked his feet like a tantruming child and that was it.

Really really weird ending.

 

Carlos Diaz "Chuko" Ramirez TKO6 Miguel "Barreterito" Beltran Jr., after being dominated for over half the scheduled distance.

 

Yeah, and it was very odd, as it wasn't just a case of him tapping Beltran on the chin with a perfect single blow or anything. For the first minute of the 6th Beltran was as much as ever the aggressor, looking perhaps on his way to scoring a knockout...then Ramirez grabbed him, spun him and traded places with him, and when the ref pushed them apart Beltran never had a chance to move himself off the ropes as Diaz just came in unloading on him in a rapid role reversal. It was basically just a long power flurry, like I said no one big punch, but it broke Beltran down in a matter of seconds and left him staring up at the rafters. :conf

 

No.

Look on Twitter and you'll see many accounts matching what I saw. People were shocked Diaz won, and everybody agreed he was losing big time entering the sixth. That article on BS is BS, hell just look at the comments on it.

Jake Donovan's recollection is inexplicable, really. The 1st through 5th were massive Beltran rounds.

 

...and the girls were muy caliente.
