ShoBox: Jhonatan Romero vs. Efrain Esquivias & Roman Morales vs. Jon Arrellano RBR

Round 3

Morales is trying to stay off the jab and work up a 1-2 to the head. Arrellano is stepping diagonally in and to his right, and trying to put in hooks and rights up close. Morales steps back and jabs. Arrellano gets his lead foot inside Morales' and BASHES HIM WITH TWO LEAD LEFT HOOKS!! Morales down!! He takes a long knee. He gets up and throws his jab back at Arrellano. High jab by Arrellano, and a left hook that Morales ducks. Nice right hand by Arrellano. Morales throws him to the canvas at the bell, not a knockdown.

10-8 Arrellano

 

:think

 

Round 5

Arrellano is following Morales around and jabbing but not reaching. Right hands up top by Arrellano miss. Morales stays in the pocket a bit too long, greedy for counters, and gets clipped with a few Arrellano rights, but is still landing the larger share with his long jab and making Arrellano hunt him down with single shots.

10-9 Morales

48-46 Morales

 

Esquivias hitting the pads backstage.

 

Round 7

Morales is sticking the jab out into Arrellano's face and lining up straight combos that thunk loudly off his flesh. A few hooks nicked in by Arrellano as he gets backed up but Morales is landing combos to head and body while keeping it mostly on the outside. Morales keeps switching southpaw, and mirroring his work as he keeps circling Arrellano. Jabs to set up, uppercuts to the body, and combos up and down. Big superman right hand by Arrellano charging in, but it's partially blocked.

10-9 Morales

68-63 Morales
