Young Gunz: Samuel Vargas vs. Manolis Plaitis RBR

You can have a ring name before you've debuted as a pro? :huh

Anyway, welcome to boxing Steve "Piranha" Wilcox. :conf

 

It was on at the same time as ESPN2 FNF, so no. Very few people saw it, I'd imagine. Per Twitter reports he dominated easily.

 

The commentators are taking jabs at Valcourt.

"A tie in your first fight - that's a bit like kissing your sister, isn't it? Has to leave a bitter taste in your mouth.."

 

Round 1

Wilcox is throwing the jab as Valcourt tries to close in on him and lean into a clinch. Valcourt is landing some body shots and high right hand rabbit punches on the inside before the ref splits them apart. Wilcox is bending over to one side and hooking at the body. Nice double left jab and straight right by Wilcox. HARD right uppercut to the body from outside by Wilcox.

10-9 Wilcox

 

This party kicked off at 8pm EST.

 

Good round for the Piranha to start his career.

 

Round 2

Valcourt is hunkered forward lobbing low shots to the body, chasing Wilcox to the ropes. Wilcox is countering well off the back foot in combination. Valcourt is FLOORED BY A QUICK RIGHT HAND!! He manages to take his feet, but looks badly out of it. The referee is mulling over whether to let it go on and the corner throws the towel.

KO!

 

:yep

 

Aw, he's just a widdle baby.

Is he even twenty? BR doesn't list his age.

Maybe for now he should go by "Small Fry" until he earns the right to use "Piranha" (although if he keeps this type of performance up as he progresses...that might not take long)
