PBC on NBC Sports Network: Danny O'Connor vs. Gabriel Bracero II RBR

Javier Fortuna is here to support his countryman Guzmán, and served as his chief sparring partner for this.

 

Round 4

Guzmán is landing quick jabs, drawing his left glove up like a well-pail and then flicking it out before melting away. Guzmán is sucking in his gut and leaving his arms low while using nothing but nimble, timely to dodge all of Aquino's punches. Guzmán letting up on the aggression somewhat in this frame, maybe taking a breather, content to just outbox Aquino on the outside.

10-9 Guzmán

40-34 Guzmán

 

Round 5

Guzmán is still happy to just pot shot from a distance, slick & quick. Aquino is falling in with a scooping jab and trying for no-look overhands while bowed forward and marching after Guzmán, soaking up quick needling counter jabs.

10-9 Guzmán

50-43 Guzmán

 

Based on their respective showings tonight (so far) I'm kind of liking Kielczewski's chances in a rematch with Aquino.

 

Okay, this has, surprisingly, gotten very boring and someone I really like (Khomitsky) is fighting on the other card - and that's a world title bout, not a marginally significant 10-rounder. Switching over until the main event here. :hi:

This one is all but academic by now anyway. I doubt Aquino is going to pull a stoppage outta thin air, hopelessly behind on points.

 

:deal

Surprised he even boxes orthodox.

 

Aquino is a tough dude.
