Eh, I thought it was up for grabs before the right hand Rocky landed at the end. (best punch of the round)

 

Round 4

Escobedo hatchets with his jab, backing Juarez up. Juarez comes rushing inside and bodies up against Escobedo, shoving into him with both arms. Escobedo is working the jab well at mid-range and bending over to hook Juarez in the waist when he tries to work his way inside. NICE combo by Escobedo, left hook right hook left hook around Juarez's gloves. Nice body flurries by Escobedo as Juarez leans on him and pushes him back into a corner. Uppercuts by Juarez on the inside! Escobedo keeps landing body shots. Escobedo's hands look much faster. Nice 1-2 by Escobedo. Now a comfortable jab is rolled out by Escobedo in singles and doubles as he circles the shorter man and uses some shoulder rolling on the outside to maintain rhythm.

10-9 Escobedo

38-37 Escobedo

 

:yep Definitely a jab.

 

Round 5

Juarez tries to crowd Escobedo, forcing his way inside and holding and hitting. Escobedo is keeping his head sheltered between his gloves and ducking his way out of the snares, letting his jab fly high. Nice 1-2 by Escobedo backs Juarez up a step. Tie up and push off, mutual. Juarez jabs and Escobedo ducks. (barely necessary as Juarez's reach isn't bringing him close). Escobedo tosses some upward wrist-flicks into Juarez's forehead and leans in on him. Nice uppercut and left hook by Juarez, but he didn't really turn either over so they just sort of bounce harmlessly off the corners of Escobedo's head.

48-46 Escobedo
