Jermell Charlo fought Brian Carlos Castano for four junior middleweight / super welterweight belts, WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBF.   Their previous bout ended in a split decision draw as Castano dominated most of the half of that fight and Charlo took control of the last half.  Judges had Charlo winning the last three rounds of their first match which allowed the draw. 

This fight started out with a feeling out process that lasted one minute and from there, it exploded into a classic fight.   Both fighters adjusted as Castano jabbed more plus he shot his right hand over Charlo’s left jab.  He threw an average of fifteen more punches per round than their previous bout 다운로드.

Charlo in his first bout, found himself on the rope and tried to counter off the rope but this fight he spend more time in the center of the round and when he was on the rope, he was more effective with his counter 다운로드.

This fight was even better than the first as more punches were thrown and even more action 옵티머스 g 펌웨어 다운로드.

The Kentucky Derby saw an 80 to 1 shot win as Rich Strike came from nowhere to win.  In Las Vegas, the heavily favored Canelo Alvarez found himself in a struggle against Dmitry Bivol and just as Rich Strike broke the bank, so did Bivol. 

Alvarez has not lost a fight since he lost to Floyd Mayweather in 2013 and his goal was to add more belts to his trophy room as Bivol’s WBA light heavyweight title was on the line.  Bivol had not lost a fight in his career but in his 18-fight professional career, he had not fought someone in Alvarez’s class.

Gary Russell Jr 알리미벨 다운로드. won every fight but one that proved to be his defining loss, to Vasly Lomachenko and faced the undefeated Filipino Mark Magsayo this past January 22nd 다운로드. Gary Russell has not fought in two years and in the first round, Magsayo nailed Russell with upper cut with a minute left and landed a few good solid combination,.  On my card, Magsayo won the first round with his power shots in the last minute. 

Magysayo power shots looks to be taking control of the second round and muting Russell own outputs.  Magysayo started the third round moving forward and put Russell back on his heels but in the last minute, Russell attempted to jab his way into Magsayo body, but he looked smaller than his opponent.  After three rounds, Magsayo was up on my card three rounds to zero 다운로드.

Yordenis Ugas was the stand in for Errol Spence Jr who suffered an eye injury training for Manny Pacquiao.  Manny was the overwhelming favorite, but he was also 42 years old and has been fighting for 26 years.  No fight should ever be classified as “in the bag” for a 42 year old fighter, no matter how great he has been 윈도우10 홈 다운로드.

The first round saw Manny Pacquiao get off to a good start as he landed jabs and combinations with good footwork.  The first round was his.  Ugas landed the first punch of the second round and got his jab going as he kept Pacquiao at bay with his length.  Ugas forced the PACMan to retreat.  Ugas threw the most effective punch in the second round.  At the end of third round, Ugas nailed Pacquiao with a solid right.  Ugas’ confidence grew after landing that punch 다운로드.

In the fourth round, after the referee warned Ugas about low blows, he landed a hard right hand to Pacquiao’s body.  Pacquiao began the fifth with a double jab and lead left, but all fell short.  He did mange to follow through with a jab followed by a left, but Ugas landed a right hand to the body.   Ugas pressed forward at round 6 and landed hooks to Pacquiao’s body along with a double jab. 

The fight was close halfway through the bout and I had it even; but I couldn’t shake the idea that the second half of the fight could benefit the younger fighter as the older fighter could wilt down the stretch 다운로드. One boxing analyst observed that “Pacquiao’s getting touched a bit too much in this fight. The thought of Errol Spence Jr. being there instead for this fight is terrifying for the Filipino.”
