Sergey Rabchenko vs. Bradley Pryce II RBR

Round 2

Koshkelishvili is following Upton around the ring, plodding and holding a very loose guard in front of his face until close enough to swat downward, chopping with both hands. Wild looping rights by Koshkelishvili, missing. Upton is lining up the 1-2 and putting together series of left hooks to head and body from outside, constantly moving. Koshkelishvili tries grabbing Upton by the head and pushing down on him, but Upton squirms free. Headlock by Koshkelishvili.

10-9 Upton

20-18 Upton

 

Has been for some years.

 

Round 3

Koshkelishvili presses in and forces an exchange, landing a few chops on the face. Upton counters with a hard right hand, backing up. Upton flicks up jabs from the waist and gets walked into a corner, where Koshkelishvili slashes in with a descending right hand. Upton ducks as Koshkelishvili windmills at him up close, very messy action. Clinch. Upton rides Koshkelishvili into a corner, digging his skull into Koshkelishvili's stomach. Quick right uppercut by Upton while strafing by Koshkelishvili. Headlock by Koshkelishvili. Upton breaks out and backs up to the ropes, feeding Koshkelishvili a breadcrumb trail of jabs.

10-9 Upton

30-27 Upton

 

I know, right? Hopefully before the NBC Sports card is too far underway... :err

 

Round 4

Koshkelishvili is wailing on Upton, walking forward and slinging overhand rights. Upton slaps out left hooks as he backs up, loading an uppercut as he lays into the ropes for a brief rest, not landing cleanly as he throws shots away hastily without aiming. Koshkelishvili is walking forward just pouring leather with no coordination but still landing as Upton gets himself trapped on the ropes looking to get away.

10-9 Koshkelishvili

39-37 Upton

 

Yeah. Three rounds' worth of moderate work rate and he is pooped. Hatton should make him tag along with Ryan Burnett at the gym. :yep

 

Round 5

Koshkelishvili is moving forward and flapping both gloves down on Upton's face. Upton flips up jabs tiredly from the hip, jogging away, getting caught with lunges and dusting flurries by Koshkelishvili. Upton is spending too much time on the ropes and still keeping his arms down lazily even as Koshkelishvili moves in and powders his face with multiple light shots.

10-9 Koshkelishvili

48-47 Upton

 

Round 6

Koshkelishvili is forcing Upton onto the ropes and plastering him with scattered fire. Upton is working the jab backing up and holding Koshkelishvili off with his out-held left forearm. Koshkelishvili walks forward, straight through Upton's jab, cracking him on the chin with a few left and right hooks and then lunging in with straights on the chest as Upton runs straight back. Wild flurry off the ropes by Upton, getting hit with several head shots while fighting back hard and baring his gum shield.

10-9 Koshkelishvili

57-57

 

The commentators have been calling Upton's opponent "Chrissy".

Is that a nickname, or is he not the person listed on Boxrec? Have I had the name wrong?
