Charles Huerta TKO-3

Bernard Hopkins is one of the analysts. This may be the most amateurish boxing broadcast I’ve ever seen.

I do it because I love boxing.

Our next fight is Luis Ramos (10-0, 5 KO) vs. Baudel Cardenas, who has 16 losses. You don’t even need to know his win total. But just because…it’s 18.

It’s a 6 round fight in the lightweight division.

Cardenas is backing up against the ropes while Ramos uses him as a human moving punching bag. They stalk each other in the ring as Ramos lands a good right hand. Cardenas tries a three punch combination and misses on all three.

And BOOM! Down he does on a body shot. He gets up but he’s still wincing. He has a minute to survive. Wow, Ramos should be after this dude. He’s barely over .500 in his career for goodness sakes! Cardenas lands a short left hand to end the round.

10-8 Ramos

Seriously, this pbp guy is dreadful. I mean they’re pumping up a tomato can as if he’s no pushover. This isn’t Emanuel Augustus. Uppercut by Ramos. Not much to say really. And on cue a right hook to the body gets to Cardenas. The two try and exchange but it doesn’t really amount to anything. Damn Cardenas’ liver will be shot at this rate. Lots of body punches by Ramos. Bell sounds.

20-17 Ramos

Ramos is hurting Cardenas with a right to the side of the head. This stiff should be done already. Dude has to learn killer instinct. Not much to say here.

30-26 Ramos

why is this bum still here? body shot this fool till he’s outta here

Wow I absolutely hate these announcers. It’s a strong word but really everyone sucks except B-Hop. Did DLH just pay them to whore out LA?

Meanwhile Ramos must be fighting for a decision. Three straight left punches to Cardenas’ grill. Just 40 seconds remains in round 4. They clinch and at this point I’m starting to root for a takedown and an armbar attempt.

40-35 Ramos

he’s outta hereeeeee

about godamnedable time

49-37 Magic over the Lakers approaching halftime.

Knock this SOB out, Ramos! It’s like no one taught him he’s a lightweight and should have some form of a workrate. His corner just asked for “punches in bunches” according to this announcer.

“I think he’s boxing a beautiful fight.” – Doug Fischer

You’re kidding me.

Hey!!! A right hand drops Cardenas off the combination. And this fight is mercifully over.

Luis Ramos TKO 5

so far two of the three fights have been boring, and the commentating sucks. i had high hopes for this

Ricky Lopez defeated Rufino Serrano by unanimous decision in a 4 round featherweight fight.

ugh seriously doug is too “feminine” to be a commentator. i don’t mind him on the countdowns, but i can’t stand this dudes voice for another 30 minutes

Adrian Diaconu vs. Jean Pascal will be shown live on Versus for the WBC light heavyweight title next Friday. Troy Ross will be on the undercard.

yo were you watching versus a few hours before this? the tv guide had some boxing listed but my shitty dvr didn’t record it. any idea what it was?

What the? Some Mexican dude is rapping in Spanish. He ain’t bad. ;-)

David Rodela (12-1-2, 6 KO) vs. Juan Garcia (14-2, 5 KO) in a 6 round featherweight fight.

“I have one more thing to say! Are youuuuuuu readyyyyyyy?!”

This can’t be real.

sweet shit even the announcer guy sucks.

LA i have one more question for you. are youuuuu READDDDYYYYYY

Hey look bobbing and weaving for 30 seconds. Jab by Rodela and now he connects on a right hand. Garcia ran into a left hand. Halfway through round 1 as Rodela gets caught with a decent jab. Usually prospect fights don’t suck miserably like the majority have tonight.

Rodela fires a right hand that isn’t close. 30 ticks left. Nothing major happens. Way to go, Versus. WEC 41 on Sunday, this crap show on Thursday.

10-9 Rodela

Stick to commentating in Spanish, Mario Solis.

I’m half-asleep RBRing this but the crowd is making noises so I assume something happened. They’re swinging away and I catch Garcia missing with an uppercut. Good inside work from Garcia as we approach 1 more minute left in round 2. Left hand by Garcia and he’s dominating this round. Hook to the body and then another upstairs by Garcia!

Fischer, how many more people are you going to compare to Juan Manuel Marquez?

Clear Garcia round.

19-19 Even

rapper guy got hurt there

Garcia is just working on Rodela, at the moment. Some adequate technical skill and catches Rodela with a left hand. Rodela trying to be the aggressor but it’s not really working. Garcia backs his opponent against the ropes and starts working on the inside. Left uppercut by Rodela catches Garcia and this fight is somewhat decent. Garcia may be hurt here as he holds on.

Right hand stumbles Rodela! He’s hurt! Is he going to stay up?! He will! Just barely. He was clearly rocked there and survives the round.

29-28 Garcia

Anyone notice that Versus cuts to the round 10 seconds in?

GARCIA IS HURT?! Looks like his glove touched the canvas. He’s still getting hit and he stays on his feet and gets out of trouble. I turned away for a moment and all of a sudden he got caught. Good fight. Rodela is down but he was pushed. Solid body shot by Garcia. 30 seconds left.

Rodela says “come on” and naturally eats a left jab to end the round which he won.

38-38 Even

I thought that was a knockdown. No doubt about it. I’m going to revise my score and give Rodela a 10-8.

Rodela is currently the one on the attack. He complains he was hit behind the head. Good right hook by Garcia. I’m half paying attention.

So the revised score was 38-37 Rodela, but now it’s 47-47 even.

can’t believe these guys can be so fake. this last fight is OBVIOUSLY been the most exciting fight. the 2nd fight had one good round, and the others were horrid.

Great stuff to begin the final round. Some swinging, if not wild, and connecting. Garcia continues to successfully land that right hand. Now he’s hurt with another shot! He has no answer for it. 1 minute left in the fight!

He gets him again! Just 12 seconds left and that overhand right just misses. But he lands now! Rodela clearly shaken but not down! Probably the round that wins it for Garcia. It has to be him.

57-56 Garcia

You could make a case that it was a 10-8 round with that domination.

wait so wrecCAGE is a mma show? god i thought only pro wrestlign could be that cheesy

59-55 – Rodela
57-56 – Garcia
59-55 – Rodela
