Harris unloads, about eleven unanswered punches. Quintero nods it off, shows machismo. His priority is getting through this round. Tyrone not throwing caution to the win, letting Quintero creep back into it with a few fast flurries, nothing of consequence finding a target. Harris fires a double jab and then covers up. He may be a little pooped. Backpedals to finish the round, gets clipped on the temple as the bell rings. Showtime guys apparently gave that to Quintero. I don't see that. 59-55 Harris.
Both guys trade to open the 7th. Pair of sturdy chins in here. Quintero putting together 6 and 7 punch combinations. Harris mostly shelling up and jabbing off the back foot. Drops anchor in the middle of the ring and tries to pick Quintero off - Marvin just bulls in and guns, tossing one to the body after every half a dozen to the chest/chin area. Clearest Quintero round yet. 68-65 Harris
Tyrone looks like he wishes this had been a six rounder. He's actually pressing forward in the eighth even though he's not letting his hands go. Quintero brings a looping hooker-cut that gets countered with a beaut of a cross on the button, sends Quintero staggering back to the ropes. Harris explodes on him and the ref says no. TKO 8 Harris. Great job by the vet (even though he was starting to slow down and lose momentum, he managed to take advantage of a perfect opportunity). :happy
Stoppage was fine. Seven unanswered power punches. Agonized look on Quintero's face per the slow-mo replay. Absolutely fine. He was gonna get cold KOed. Ref's discretion.
was gonna put a sneaker fiver on harris @ 10/3 but that was as part of a treble that included juan diaz winning so not to pissed really
