Theodore Cheeseman vs. Sergio García Gómez, 12 rounds @ "11 stone" (light middleweight)

 

Round 1

García is aggressive from the outset, jabbing the face and hooking the body. Cheeseman focusing on defense for the first minute, before starting to dial in a counter right hand. Cheeseman getting out-hustled as García triples and even at times as much as quadruples the sharp jab while spiraling clockwise. Flush hook for García. Cheeseman starting to execute quick tilts leftward and finding the body of García with his own hook, but soon the Spaniard is pelting his guard with jabs and then piercing it with the 1-2.

10-9 García, very strong and statement-making, dick-whipped-out-and-slapped-on-the-countertop opener.

 

Round 2

García is whipping left hooks into the body, as the Brit stands up tall, forearms bunched as shields from temples down to neckline, throwing uppercuts and backing García up consistently. Jabs into the guard and hooks on the waist by García, nothing really bothering Cheeseman. Lead rights and left hooks from Cheeseman, finding García cleanly at mid-range when they circle apart. García is caught with a plunging right and then a left hook while in mid-dip and on the go laterally, but he shoots up to full height firing back.

10-9 Cheeseman

19-19

 

Ewwww the play by play guy just called him "The Big Cheese"...

brb, vomiting.

 

At least he's Ted, not Richard.

 

Round 3

García is carrying the left hand low, but levitating it a few inches above his lead hip. García jabbing up into the broad flat underside of the chin and then hooking off the jab as he strafes left. García missing almost everything, or getting hung up on the mobile gloves of Cheeseman, who's using a lot of anticipatory triangulation in order to parry García despite the Spaniard's edge in hand speed. Cheeseman drills García with a few hard downward rights into the point of the skull even as García is scoring jabs & hooks on the body.

10-9 Cheeseman, very close

29-28 Cheeseman

 

The commentator says he thought García nicked the last on work-rate, and he now has García up 29-28. No problem with that.

 

Round 4

Cheeseman is taking a few steps toward García, only to get frozen in place with his guard pinched in close against his chest as García begins ripping into his body from a crouch. García using lots of shuffling movement, in fluid and serpentine trajectories, luring Cheeseman across the ring and bending over to jab under his elbows or reaching out with a big hook astride the ribs. Cheeseman pumping out long 1-2s, first to head, then body, not quite finding the mark squarely.

10-9 García

38-38

 

Anthony Fowler thinks his countryman is down 3-1.

 

Oh yeah - but that's largely due to García's style more than Cheeseman's, at least until this point.

 

Round 5

García is using quick, graceful, and unpredictable footwork to land jabs, 1-2s, and hooks at every altitude on the advancing Cheeseman. Lots of García's jabs hitting the pinky edge of Cheeseman's gloves, but his body shots are landing at something like a 3/4 clip. Nothing really firmly touching García in return, as Cheeseman is doggedly walking him down but reticent to fire and miss when not taking a high percentage shot and/or unwilling to leave himself opened up to counters.

10-9 García

48-47 García

 

One commentator has given every round to García.
