    He literally sleep walked through this one, in as bad a a non-effort as I've ever seen a world class fighter do.

    Certainly wasn't a MD either, its been several years since I've seen this one but it was a near clean sweep for Tapia if I'm remebering correctly.

    Anyone?

    Well Konadu was stifled by Tapia's gameplan first and foremost. Tapia never let him set his feet, which he needed to at that point, he wasn't in his super flyweight orime.

    His timing wasn't really there anymore, so he relied on being given opportunities.

    Tapia basically did the opppsite of what Veeraphol did.

    Yes, that was far worse. I think being cornered by Moon made me think 'Nah, f u c k this I ain't doin' this again'!
