Román Alberto González Luna vs. Julio Cesar Martinez Aguilar & Mauricio Lara vs. Emilio Sanchez RBR.

Valenzuela pressuring but not landing. Cissokho fighting very well of the back foot.

Gave 2 to Cissokho

1-1

 

Cissokho is clearly the more talented... but I'm so unconvinced by him...

 

Round 1: 10-9 Cissokho
Round 2: 10-9 Cissokho

There we go. Valenzuela comes out aggressive and lands. He's way closer to Cissokho this round but still getting countered and outmoved by a very mobile Cissokho who shows some great upper body movement. Valenzuela swinging but missing. Sneaky left hook counter by Cissokho goes through. Cissokho doing a good job handling the pressure but Valenzuela really needs to throw more and he actually does towards the end of the round and marching forward like the terminator. Big swelling around the left eye of Valenzuela.

 

Because he can't crack an egg.

 

R1: Valenzuela 10-9, close.
R2: Cissokho 10-9, clear. (19/19)

Despite a good couple of shots getting through in the first, Cissokho looks a different class in terms of skill here. With that jab to the body working so well, I'd like to see him work some feints off it. Step in for the jab, come up with the lead hook or the uppercut. Works every time.

 

Valenzuela bruising under left eye

 

Valenzuela looks outclassed. And he's going to move DOWN to 147? Yikes.

 

Valenzuela is essentially Margarito without the talent or the skill.

 

Valenzuela swinging wild. His windmill would make Wilder proud

 

Round 1: 10-9 Cissokho
Round 2: 10-9 Cissokho
Round 3: 10-9 Cissokho

Cissokho beats him up.

 

2-1 Cissokho

 

Ooof.

 

R1: Valenzuela 10-9, close.
R2: Cissokho 10-9, clear.
R3: Cissokho 10-9, clear.

Light work for Cissokho. Who is Valenzuela??? Who is in his corner because they're giving him shocking advice? There's so much literally anyone with a bit of know-how could be telling him to do right now.
