Georgy Yunovidov vs. Arslan Yallyev 10 Rounds @ Heavyweight

 

Round 1: 10-9 Yunovidov

Beautiful jabs from both. Yunovidov landing double and tripble jabs. Yallyev looks a bit stronger and more powerful but not many right hands went through yet. Close round but once Yunovidov started to work the jab he looked fantastic.

 

Round 1: 10-9 Yunovidov
Round 2: 10-9 Yallyev

Another close round. Yallyev landed the better shots and made more impact but the momentum already changed in the last minute. Yunovidov grinding him and Yallyev already slowing down a bit.

 

This one comes down to cardio 100%.

 

Round 1: 10-9 Yunovidov
Round 2: 10-9 Yallyev
Round 3: 10-9 Yunovidov

Yunovidov getting through with a few nasty right hands. That basic 1,2 works really well for him. Yunovidov pretty much doing what he did in the last minute of Round 2. Yallyev looking tired and Yunovidov bossing the round.

 

Round 1: 10-9 Yunovidov
Round 2: 10-9 Yallyev
Round 3: 10-9 Yunovidov
Round 4: Yallyev wins by KO

A jab knocks Yunovidov off balance and he touches the ground with one arm. Ruled a KD correctly albeit Yunovidov wasn't hurt or buzzed, just lost the balance. Overhand by Yallyev hurts Yunovidov, he's stumbling around and eating a nasty uppercut in the clinch and goes down, doesn't beat the count!

 

You guys called every dumbshit jabroni match on the undercard and then bailed directly after the co-main? Weird choice.

ME is almost over, I'm going to rewind and RBR it from the beginning - so at this point you all may as well STFU and not spoil anything since nobody could be arsed to make a single comment in the last 45min.

 

Zaur Magomedalievich Abdullaev vs Ricardo Antonio Núñez Pérez, 10 rounds @ lightweight

 

Round 1

Abdullaev trades jabs with Núñez, each blocking, neither firing theirs off with much speed or snap yet. Feeling out. That period ends just under a minute into the round when Abdullaev sneaks a hard jab between Núñez's thumbs, pops him right on the nose and sends him FLYING across the canvas onto his ass in front of the corner turnbuckle. Viciously and unexpectedly JTFD! Núñez looks embarrassed but gets back to work. High guard by Núñez, careful to hold his wrists closer together so as to not suffer the same fate twice. He's leaving his body open, as his elbows are raised, but Abdullaev not yet noticing or exploiting it. Abdullaev is actually coasting on what is now a guaranteed 10-8 in the bank, circling away from Núñez, taking a rest. A few 1-2s downstairs by Abdullaev to caution Núñez from pressing the issue. Núñez realizes there isn't much point in attempting to salvage the round so his pressure is very cautious and he never gets within two paces of Abdullaev. Lazy jab by Núñez and HARD COUNTER JAB by Abdullaev past it, Núñez doing a chicken dance and very nearly JTFD twice in a round! Saved by the bell.

10-8 Abdullaev

 

Round 2

Núñez is getting his head Pez-dispenser'ed by every flush Abdullaev jab, so he's now approaching very nervously. Tight guard isn't helping as the jab of Abdullaev is able to needle-thread directly through wherever even a small gap is left. Núñez finally gets in a solid couple of shots, rocking Abdullaev's neck back violently with a straight two-piece. Abdullaev ducks a jab and slashes lightly across the belt line with a left hook. They're circling, guarding, feinting, playing chess. Double jab by Adbullaev, first one glances and the next misses as Núñez begins to skitter backward. Another hard jab from Abdullaev gets through and snaps Núñez's head back.

10-9 Abdullaev, close

20-17 Abdullaev

 

Round 3

Núñez is coming alive now, countering Abdullaev's pressure with first high stiff jabs and then crouching in with hooking attacs on the body. This actually works and makes Abdullaev slow his roll and mull things over a moment on the outside, considering his next move. Núñez having an excellent first half of the round, being first and busily throwing combos while squatting and moving in before retracting, straightening up, and reassembling his guard. Abdullaev seems a tad bewildered at Núñez pulling this Uno reverse and behaving like he wasn't the one that got JTFD and hurt multiple times in the previous six minutes of action. Núñez jabbing the head, rolling some bowling-balls at the midsection and even daring to break his guard to sweep out hooks at the side of Abdullaev's head. Only really a smattering of defensive jabs from Abdullaev.

10-9 Núñez

29-27 Abdullaev

 

Round 4

Núñez is circling wide as Abdullaev attempts to assert himself as the ring general once again. Abdullaev following and jabbing but falling short or hitting palm. Núñez counters with a BIG right uppercut splitting Abdullaev's arms and landing on the bottom of his chin at the midway point of the round. Best shot yet and puts him in the lead in the race for a 10-9 unless Abdullaev starts scoring soon. So far only missed and blocked jabs from him. Nice counter right over the top by Núñez, countering an Abdullaev jab and drilling him in the left eye. Núñez on quite a roll here considering how disastrously this all began for him. Núñez circling and popping jabs. Abdullaev tries timing him with a counter left hook in the pocket and just grazes.

10-9 Núñez

38-37 Abdullaev

 

Round 5

Núñez is still the one forcing the fight, coming in with jabs and 1-2s up top and finishing with heavy body hooks, forcing Abdullaev onto the backfoot. Now and then Abdullaev will come alive with a big swatting hook upstairs of his own, but Núñez is able to at least partially block them. That said, even only partially getting through has an effect and Núñez reacts to Abdullaev's power even muted. Abdullaev for his part is getting lit up but shrugging off Núñez's combos, although the body shots do seem to be making him slightly more reticent to come forward. Impervious to head shots, though. Jab and uppercut combo into the guard by Núñez and Abdullaev stays tightly covered until exploding with a left hook, that itself just nicks Núñez as he pulls back.

10-9 Núñez

47-47

 

This is a fascinating fight. After what happened in literally the opening minute, no way would I expect to have it a draw halfway through.
