RJJ Promotions: James McKenzie Witt Morrison vs. Hasim Shariff Rahman, Jr. RBR

Oof, that Hunter body jab is slower and lumpier than a rickety soft-serve ice cream machine still in operation from the 50's.

But that right tho...

 

Odds for this one:

Hunter -250
Driver +175
Draw +2000

 

Man oh man, Keith Hunter needs a ton of work. Ambling forward swinging his front arm by his side like a pendulum, and that embarrassment of a body jab that he just won't quit leading with. Driver being very careful, darting in with quick one-off pot shot jabs, hooks, or rights up top, piling up points although you can tell he's very wary of Hunter's big right hand.

10-9 Driver, close

19-19

 

Home run swings from both, Hunter feeding in the long right hand on the button, Driver partly rolling with it but feeling it enough to elicit a grin and nod of bravado, then Driver answers with some bombs of his own with an elastic-band snap inside.

No way this lasts another seven.

10-9 Driver, close

29-28 Driver

 

Driver with some Olé defense after slotting in a cheeky right hand lead of his own, standing in front of Hunter daring him to flick that backhanded jab into his chest and then scooting away so that it either tickles or misses outright. He'll want to be more careful as things progress, as he only has a few bouts' experience going this deep and stamina could become an issue.

10-9 Driver

39-37 Driver
