In the 11th round Martinez wins this bout! The Panamanian Batistas was not a match for the mexican. Batista came out swinging because he know that was the only way he could win tonight.

Martinez vs Batista

Martinez keeps on winning as long as he doesn’t go down. This is a win for him if Batista can’t take hum down. Martinez is also not going too hard for fear of going down

Another round that goes to Martinez. He will take this one if Batista doesn’t come out with something on these last few rounds. He does connect but it is not powerful to do much to Martinez.

Martinez will take this round. He got Batista didn’t see him coming. He took Batista down on this round. If he would have gone for more many we would be talking about TKO.

Rnd. 5

Martinez vs Batista

Martinez did not have a good bout on that one. Batista came out with a nice strategy to hit the body and then move up the face. This is not good for the Mexican. Martinez needs to shake off the bad moment and get back on this.

Do you guys agree ?

Not sure i agree with this decision. But Gollaz is now the winner and it doesn’t look bad for him.

Gollaz wins this one!

On split decision Gollaz takes this one and beat Sparks. For this commentator Sparks was the clear winner. But they did not see it this way on the bout and refs gave it to Gollaz who was more than a worthy opponent and now is the winner.

Nathan Rodriguez vs Alexander Mejia

Rodriguez will take the last round but who knows who will win this one. It seems the Guatemalan feels the winner. He has the experience and the know how. But if you ask me! Rodriguez won this and should be crowned. 

Andy Restrepo

Nathan Rodriguez vs Alexander Mejia

Mejia is not looking good. Rodriguez has him on the run and he looks like he can last the last rounds. The Mexican if he wants it he can take it. He should go for the KO here and make his stand. 

Andy Restrepo

Nathan Rodriguez vs Alexander Mejia

Rodriguez take this one. He connected a nice left hook to the face against Mejia and had the Guatemalan shaken! This is the sort of stuff we can ask from him. He has the stamina to take this one to the longer rounds.
