I just caught the end of the Mike Tyson interview after switching over from ESPN2.

He says his favorite musician is Stevie Wonder.

 

Felix Diaz vs. Emmanuel Lartei Lartey, 8 ronuds @ light welterweight

 

Lartey missed weight by 2.75lbs, effectively coming in a welterweight.

 

Round 1

Lartey is putting the right jab out and slicing down with it as he backs out, shifting his weight onto the rear foot. Diaz pops the right jab at the chest of his fellow southpaw and throws short left uppers and right hook combos in close. Lartey sways and brings his arms clapping together in front of himself and squeeze Diaz's head down and in close to stifle his offense. Lots of clinching.

10-9 Diaz

 

Round 2

Lartey is pushing down at the head of Diaz and pulling him into clinches as Diaz fires right jabs into the gut and slashes right hooks up top jumping in and getting grabbed in midair. Lartey is getting pushed into the ropes, shoeshined on the body. Lartey opens up loading a right hook and is hit with a four punch combo, rocking his face around.

10-9 Diaz

20-18 Diaz

 

Round 3

Lartey is shouldered into the ropes, Diaz working the body. Lartey counters off the ropes with a wide hook. Diaz is hurt and backs across the ring, holding when Lartey advances on him. Body shots whipped in by Lartey. Diaz ducks and covers, Lartey buzzing his hair with hard right jabs and then piercing a left hand into his bundled forearms. Hooking left on the jaw by Diaz at the bell.

10-9 Lartey

29-28 Diaz

 

Round 4

Lartey is clinging onto Diaz and pushing him onto the ropes. Right jabs on the forehead by Lartey on the outside. Diaz hurls in a left hand, windmilling, caught in a clinch. Light body whacks by Diaz in the clinch. Lartey spins him into the ropes. Break. Counter right jab by Lartey.

10-9 Lartey

38-38
