    Close round, but I gave it to Whittaker because he landed more punches. Rosado needs to let his hands go. 10-9 Whittaker.

    29-28 Whittaker.

    He went for Kirkland first who turned it down
    Then he went for Williams that was signed sealed and delivered then Williams had his accident
    Then he went for Kirkland again who claimed he was injured
    Then he signed to fight Ortiz who lost to Lopez
    Then he was going to fight Bundrage, but he stank out the joint against Spinks
    Then he went for Kirkland again who turned down and claimed to being injured
    So he was left with Lopez

    Round 4

    Whittaker is drifting to the ropes and slapping out with a left hook before they hit his back. Rosado is coming straight forward, hands up, using head movement on the inside to slip Whittaker's jabs, and planting the right hand on him. Whittaker's posture is completely defensive, looking to throw long jabs from outside or hook his way off the ropes but otherwise not engaging Rosado at all. Body shot by Rosado forcing his way in. Right hand over the top. Powerful left hook by Roado, breaking through the guard. Whittaker is forced to stand and trade, and lands some flush counters. BIG LEFT HOOK by Rosado, shakes Whittaker but doesn't hurt him.

    10-9 Rosado

    39-37 Rosado

    Rosado doesn't respect Whittaker's punches anymore it seems.

    38-38 for me, Rosado taking the 2nd and the 4th. Looks like he's settled into things now aswell, reckon he'll get the stoppage with a few rounds.

    Good round. I gave it to Rosado because of his aggression, and his harder punches.

    38-38 Even.

    That was one fight over the last three years.

    He still should have unified against K9, IMO.

    Kirkland was hurt, he wound up having arthroscopic surgery on his right surgery due to the Molina.

    Canelo just had bad luck in opponents for this fight.
