Neil John Tabanao vs. Ángel Miguel Leo & Xavier Augustine Martínez vs. John Vincent Moralde RBR

Did you guys see her tweet asking "who the hell is #4" (referring to Wangek on somebody's p4p list)


I replied with "***** who tf are YOU?"

SSR >>>>>>>>>>>>>> T-Rex. And I do mean that, directly, if they fought h2h, despite the size difference. He would put her in the hospital until 2020.

 

Not a very eventful opener, outside a few explosive 1-2-1-2s up top and left hooks beneath the guard by Leo, but he's fighting too much in spurts. Tabanao is just watching & waiting on him, dropping in the odd counter but putting up a very low work-rate so far aside from long jabs. Cautious and cagey from both men.

10-9 Leo

 

20-18 Leo, investing more to the body. Tabanao very stingy with what he's allowing to land up top. Good defensive footwork and responsible hand positioning by Tabanao, but he isn't countering much...at all. Very low pace.

 

I'm not saying this is necessarily boring, per se - but with Xavier already being a hard act to follow it definitely feels like the energy in the room is...dropping... little by little...

 

30-27 Leo, there was a blatant yet probably unintentional low blow that was the dramatic highlight of not just the round but the fight so far.

 

Jay Nady busting out the dad voice. "Nnnno!", pressing his palm against his own forehead in a pantomime of butting, addressing Tabanao like he was a naughty puppy who just peed on the floor.
