#Davis vs cruz undercard pro
Pressure breaks pipes, but also creates diamond, and it looks like with 5-0 pro prospect Amari Jones, we might just have a diamond on our hands.Īmari Jones continues to look the part of a star, as he defeated a 4-1 opponent by the name of Timothy Lee, via a sixth-round KO. With bright lights, and big stages comes harder fights, and the Nevada State Athletic Commission is not one to allow lopsided bouts, so on less than week’s notice Jones moved up in weight to middleweight, and fought the toughest opponent of his career. On the downside, Marc missed weight by six pounds for this fight, which is something that needs to get fixed. Marc Castro continues to look the part of a future star as the Fresno standout amateur is not just knocking people out, but putting forth highlight-reel KO’s once he has the man hurt. I am curious to see how he does against the next level of foe, as his Olympic pedigree makes him a proven winner. I am not a fan of how tall, and unorthodox his shot are, but he is effective. Hrgovic is still looking very robotic, but can really crack. This was McCaskill’s first fight on her new contract with Matchroom Boxing. McCaskill is an aggressive brawler, who has tremendous conditioning and just beat down her opponent. Undisputed women’s welterweight champion, Jessica McCaskill ran through her late-replacement opponent, Kandi Wyatt stopping her in seven.

Love is a character, and a tad bit cringey. Montana Love missed weight by four pounds, came out in Mexican outfit in an ode to Floyd Mayweather, and got an early stoppage over Carlos Diaz. Haney is one of the most exciting young fighters in the sport, and despite not appearing to be a power puncher per say, he is a proven winner, and now we look forward to future bouts with Gervonta Davis, George Kambosos Jnr, Teofimo Lopez, and many others.įor Diaz, who according to BoxRec Grey, has faced opponents with a record of 479-52-22 since 2015, the loss is bittersweet, as though it is a set back, he performed well against a fighter, who might only have one-or-two fights left at lightweight. That being said, Haney still needs to tighten some aspects of his defense, mainly his hand position as at times he seems to like to keep his right hand low, and Diaz was exploiting that. Now, Haney is in a position to face George Kambosos Jnr., for all the belts at the lightweight division, and I think most people will favor Haney in that bout. Haney had to deal with non-stop pressure in order to win the bout, but it was his boxing, and size that proved the difference as his 7-inch reach advantage allowed for a straight right hand to land at will to Diaz’s body. #DavisvsCruz | All results ⤵️ - FIGHTMAG DecemHaney Beats JoJoĭevin Haney got the marquee win of his young career defeating Joseph Diaz Jr., a former world champion in a hard-fought bout. The first fight on #DavisCruz non-televised undercard goes the distance, as Mia Ellis earns a unanimous decision against Elizabeth Tuani after four rounds at super featherweight. Now, Adames is the WBC mandatory for Jaime Munguia.Įduardo Ramirez outlasted Miguel Marriaga, as this felt like the young eating the old, as Ramirez seemingly does everything Marriaga does, but is just younger, and been through less wars. Fundora is an exciting prospect, but he needs time and some more work before faces the elite of the division.Ĭarlos Adames got the biggest win of his career over Sergiy Dervyanchenko, and Bob Santos played a huge role in this fight as Adames, notorious for gassing late, was able to win the early rounds, and one or two rounds in the back end to edge the very good Dervyanchenko.

Fundora has a bad habit of giving up his physical advantage of his size, early and often, and loves to pull straight back. Sebastian Fundora got a rather sleepy and uninspired win over Sergio Garcia, that I felt Garcia could’ve pulled off.

My biggest fears for this fight came true, when Cruz’s height, being smaller than Davis, seemed to throw Davis off, as Davis is almost always the smaller fighter, and prefers fighting, at least to me, bigger people.Īccording to punch stats, the two threw nearly the same amount of punches, and landed roughly the same, the difference in the fight was more than likely that more people are familiar with Davis, so he might have gotten a swing round based on familiarity.ĭavis who hurt his hand in this fight, looked uncomfortable by the fact that Cruz was unwilling to back down from him. On a Sunday night Gervonta “Tank” Davis defended some form of the WBA lightweight world title against Isaac Cruz, as he edged out a narrow decision over the game Mexican fighter.
