Paul Malignaggi vs. Adrien Broner RBR

Round 5

Periban is skipping around Bika, keeping his belly tucked in safely from the low stiff jab. Bika switches to hooks up top, missing from well outside. Bika lunges in with a right hand. Periban circles him at short range and their feet tangle, Periban down. Double jab by Bika, missing. Periban turns him and counters with a hook, also missing. Periban doubles a jab into Bika's gloves, then follows with a right glancing off Bika's stomach and the punctuating left hook up top missing Bika's chin by a bit. Body-head combo by Bika, sledging into Periban's sides from waistband to shoulders. Periban uses some dance steps with a very wide stance on the outside, dragging his legs and rolling his tightly scrunched up shoulders.

10-9 Bika

49-46 Bika

 

Round 6

Periban is fending off Bika's wild kamikaze attacks downstairs by pushing down and out against his traps and shoulders. Bika wings in blind overhands as he drops his head and goes for broke. Periban is finding a rhythm countering Bika on the way in and stepping back to create room to reset. Bika nods his approval as Periban lights him up with a counter flurry. Periban jumps back and scores a soft left hook against Bika's head. Body combo from outside by Periban while moving his feet, not much snap on it. Periban chases Bika into a corner with a yo-yo jab, missing. Uppercut slapped into the chest of Bika as Periban jumps forward while Bika was circling. Exchange from outside at the bell.

10-9 Periban

58-56 Bika
