:good

Grand for you, but I've still another two stops on my train ride home! :err

 

Ovill McKenzie vs. Matty Askin, 12 rounds @ cruiserweight

 

Juuuuust made it. :happy

 

Round 1

McKenzie is walking Askin down as the younger and lankier man darts in and out flashing a 1-2. Askin settles down and begins treading leftward, sticking jabs and catching shots on his left forearm. McKenzie is bossing his way into Askin's chest and hammering with the right, making Askin lean back. High needling jab by McKenzie, walking Askin to a corner. Clinch.

10-9 McKenzie, close

 

Nobody connected with much clean but McKenzie's pressure was steady and he got Askin's respect with some of his blows.

 

Round 2

McKenzie is floating a jab up in Askin's face and then delivering straight piston combos on the breadbasket. Solid right hand lead up top by McKenzie with Askin leaning in reverse. Askin inches away, feet barely leaving the canvas, scuffing as he bends over and peters out light jabs at the body. McKenzie is stalking but giving Askin space, wary of walking into a counter. Askin moves forward to intercept and wrestles McKenzie back a meter. Long jabs flung out by Askin, fully extending but stepping away so that he effectively makes himself miss. Shoving-down warning to McKenzie from the ref. Time in. High jab by McKenzie, probing, playing patty-cake with Askin.

10-9 McKenzie, clearer

20-18 McKenzie
