Licona really going for it now, he swings momentum in his favor, Deejay with the frenetic pace he's set thus far is starting to tire, finally, Licona landed his best shots of the fight, Kriel's shots have l very little one them and he's almost speedbagging with weak flurries, Licona nailing him with one twos repeatedly.

Round 12 Kriel wins by KO

Instead of trying to land 3 and 4 shots, Deejay is dialing in a lunging overhand right, as Licona shoots his in, both catching each other with them, Licona going to the body, Licona getting sloppy now lunging and missing, his gas tank looks suddenly depleted, he's hurt with a hard left hook, he holds, Licona is pushed off by Kriel who strafes him with a straight right to the temple, he goes down, more from exhaustion than from the punch, he gets to his knee, makes it back up, Kriel back on him going all out Licona holds, he's thrown down, its ruled a slip, they go back at it, Licona is out on his feet flailing, gets nailed with a counter left hook, down he goes again, back up at 7, Kriel in pounds him with a few overhands, then a left hook, Licona collapses to the canvas again, the ref waves it off. And the New!

 

Which is exactly why I picked Licona by SD. MOTHER****ER.... I'm so happy I lost, Kriel was going to get robbed hard. At best it was 7-4 going into the 12th for Kriel, and that's being REALLY generous to Licona. Those two scorecards are an abomination.

 

Fundora is very FUN to watch, but he's limited as hell, and I have a hard time seeing him be a world champ, he's a KO waiting to happen, he was getting nailed with bombs like that, he eats one of those from your boy Hurd or Munguia, they're scraping him off canvas with a spatula like a stuck fried egg.
