Bad Left Hook Live Boxing Results and Commentary: Sosa-Soto and Arce-Nongqayi
How about a little bonus coverage? Thanks to Televisa working out a deal with Suljos.TV, tonight's card from Puebla, Mexico will be available live and for free online. Just click that link and you'll be magically whisked away at 12:45 ET.
So, obviously, no guarantees on how it works, but the stream is completely legal. There's also a card on Azteca America at 11pm ET tonight, and we're going to do our best to cover that one, too. It's a Tuesday night, I'm bored, and there are fights out there. Let's talk about 'em.
The lineups:
Televisa via Suljos.TV, 11 ET
WBC Junior Flyweight Title
Edgar Sosa (36-5, 20 KO) v. Omar Soto (14-3-1, 6 KO)
Sosa is making the 10th defense of his title against Puerto Rican Soto, who the Sosa camp has tried to sell in interviews as being a tough opponent, but really this should be a gimme for the titleholder. A Soto win here would be the leading candidate for 2009's biggest upset.
Welterweights, 10 Rounds
Saul Alvarez (28-0-1, 21 KO) v. Carlos Herrera (21-1, 8 KO)
Alvarez was recently dissed by Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., who said he wasn't good enough to fight him. That's a complete crock, considering Chavez is still wasting his time fighting Jason LeHoullier at 41 fights into his career, which is not a shot at LeHoullier, really, but the guy's a club fighter, and everyone knows it. Alvarez is a really solid prospect. If he and JCC Jr. did get it on, I'd take Alvarez without thinking twice. Herrera is an Argentinian fighter, and this is his first trip outside of his home country. He doesn't have the KO record that a lot of the more notable Argentinian exports do, but Sergio Martinez is probably the best fighter of all them and he's no banger, so we'll see what he's got.
Azteca America, 11 PM ET
Vacant IBF Junior Bantamweight Title
Jorge Arce (52-5-1, 40 KO) v. Simphiwe Nongqayi (15-0, 6 KO)
Arce will be looking not only to grab another alphabet title, but to exact a little revenge. Nongqayi beat Jorge's little brother, Fernando Arce, in his last fight, a clear decision victory on the road in Mexico. The South African returns to the country to try to take out big brother now, with the win over Fernando earning Nongqayi a shot at Vic Darchinyan's IBF 115-pound title. Darchinyan chose to vacate instead of fight Nongqayi, and now we end up with this matchup, which isn't too bad at all. Almost every Arce fight is exciting. They do have one common opponent, the dreaded Julio Ler (who made for the last boring Arce fight). Both won decisions.
WBC Junior Lightweight Title
Humberto Soto (48-7-2, 31 KO) v. Aristides Perez (15-0-1, 8 KO)
A keep-warm fight for Soto, at least on paper. He's been discussed as an opponent for lightweight titleholder Edwin Valero in November. He last fought on the Hatton-Pacquiao undercard, stopping Benoit Gaudet in the ninth round.
Junior Bantamweights, 10 Rounds
Ulises Solis (28-2-2, 20 KO) v. Dirceu Cabarca (7-3, 3 KO)
Total bounce-back fight for Solis, the former 108-pound titlist and guy I felt at the time was most likely to be the man to beat Ivan Calderon. He lost a war against Brian Viloria in an April upset, and now he looks to get back on track. He won't be fighting at his usual weight, but the skill level should make that irrelevant.
Heavyweights, 8 Rounds
Samuel Peter (31-3, 24 KO) v. Ronald Bellamy (14-9-4, 9 KO)
Peter takes his second straight soft touch as Top Rank tries to get hm back to the big-punching monster he was before Vitali Klitschko beat the living crap out of him, which led to a loss to Eddie Chambers on ESPN2 earlier this year. He knocked out Marcus McGee in three his last time out, and Bellamy has been stopped a total of six times in his career. What do you think happens?
Welterweights, 6 Rounds
Omar Chavez (17-0-1, 13 KO) v. Jessie Davis (11-14, 8 KO)
The "other" Chavez kid is Omar, Julio Cesar's nephew and Julio Cesar Jr.'s cousin. Chavez's last fight was against Marco Antonio Nazareth, and the bout resulted in Nazareth's tragic death. Hopefully Omar can put that behind him and fight on, because those things, sad as it is, do happen. It'd be easy to say that Omar is on his cousin's career path, but he's still just 19 years old and guys like Davis are absolutely acceptable opponents at that point. Hopefully he won't toil in the middle tier as long as Jr. has.

And who the heck knows what the time is for the online card
One place says 7 pm central, another said 11 pm central. I can never decipher them. I wish Azteca and Televisa just put up a schedule of their programming like every other TV channel on the planet. It would make life a lot easier.

Probably half the time I spend putting those schedules together is
figuring out the times of the Mexican fights. Germany, England, US, Ireland – no problem. Mexico has an aversion to schedules though, evidently.

Solis-Cabarca
Cabarca is a southpaw and he’s working his way around the ring near the ropes. Solis starts swinging about 35 seconds into the round. Solis just playing stalker to start, but there’s a straight left from Cabarca. Not sure it landed, though. Cabarca escapes a combo. Solis swinging big! Cabarca not caught by anything solid. Cabarca misses a right hook. Cabarca’s right hand is REALLY low. This is just a waiting game.
Solis backs him into the corner, starts swinging wild again, and Cabarca again gets out of the way. He did a good job not getting rocked in the first orund, but the skill level difference is visible and huge.
Solis 10-9

Solis-Cabarca R2
Second round starts just like the first. I think Cabarca got warned for something, but I also think he might’ve gotten rocked there. Solis seemed pissed, but I’m not sure what it was. Solis again swinging like a maniac when he gets Cabarca backed to the ropes, but not much coming of it. He’s clearly controlling the action, though. Cabarca’s left hands are starting to sneak in and land when Solis is throwing all these wide, wild shots. BIG UPPERCUT SOLIS! DOWN GOES CABARCA! Boy that was on the money.
Cabarca up, has 30 seconds to survive and he’s grabbing on. He’s going to make it out of the round, and even better, he starts firing back with his own offense near the end of the round.
I’m already having fun.
Solis 10-8

Solis-Cabarca R3
Replay shows me it wasn’t an uppercut but a heat-seeking left hook that scored the KD.
This round follows much of the same blueprint we’ve seen so far, but then Solis goes down with about a minute left. Ruled a slip. This is Solis just hunting Cabarca, who keeps getting caught with clean shots just enough to keep him from doing much of anything offensively.
This is one of those fights that has no reason going any longer than the next round, so let’s see if Archi dusts him.
Solis 10-9
Solis 30-26

Solis-Cabarca R4
Cabarca doing some work in the early moments of round four. He seems like he might have gotten Archi’s timing down a little bit. Solis takes a decent body shot after failing to land on a charge of four punches. Solis just misses a home run shot. He’s looking to finish this, probably knowing he really should. Cabarca eats a mean shot, and another. Then he backs off, resets, and moves to a different corner of the ring in which to stand and wait for Solis to do something at him, so he can either get hit and move again, or counter. Cabarca presses another round.
Solis 10-9
Solis 40-35

You know if you think about it, the whole concept of ring girls could be taken to another level, if they had one set of ring girls for the live fans and another set for television fans. You could cut away like that to quite a number of girls with a bunch of cards—or whatever—for television fans. Why be limited to the one girl in the live ring for the TV audience? This broadcast has got me thinking. lol.

Solis-Cabarca R5
First minute is more of the same out of this fight. BIG right by Solis! Now Archi traps him and fires, but again Cabarca slips away. Cabarca slips.
Cabarca is gassing. He’s just getting tired out from moving around so much. He’s fought six rounds each in his last three (W, L, W) but that’s as deep as he’s ever gone. Cabarca is eating shots and staying up, though, so I’ll give him that. And he’s going to push this to at least the sixth. He’s done a few nice things this fight, too, especially considering this is a pure rebound fight and nothing more.

Solis-Cabarca R6
BIG RIGHT HAND AND DOWN GOES CABARCA! No way he keeps going after that. That was a big goddamn shot.
And…he’s up. And he’s going to keep fighting. Jesus, dude.
Cabarza is pretty much on his horse, but then he turns Archi around in the corner and goes at him, leading Archi to tie him up and get it back in the middle of the ring, where of course Cabarca doesn’t let it stay for more than a moment. Solis swinging KO shots and missing. Cabarca stings Solis as he’s backed in the corner, and Solis comes back at him! Cabarca actually looks for a moment like he’s taking the lead position in this dance. Go figure.
Solis grabs the arm and hangs on. Hmmm. And Cabarca pushes it to another round. What the hell is with this dude?

Solis-Cabarca R7
Solis chasing him all over the ring trying to close the show, but to little avail. Archi is even getting hit some. It’s really weird trying to figure out whether Cabarca is just really tough, or if Solis just isn’t all there tonight. Combination of the two, I think. Still, he’s easily winning the fight.

Not that you asked me
But I’m surprised by how little Sosa looks like he’s improved since facing Viloria. I’d just assumed he’d gotten much better since then, since he’s rattled off so many defenses. But he’s still more of a boxer-brawler with a decent punch and a good chin. I thought the fight was stopped a hair early, but no real complaints.

So, just to check (Hey Brick, talking to you) the only way to watch the Azteca fight in the NYC area using Time Warner (without the extensive Spanish language package) is to watch the stream linked at the top of this thread (not that it’s a bad stream—it’s pretty solid, actually).

Sosa-Soto
Actually, it was a pretty good fight. The stoppage by Draculich was premature. There was open scoring, and Omar Soto was up on two scorecards 39-37 after the first four rounds. He was frustrating Sosa with his speed, and controlling the tempo of the fight. Soto was winning the 6th round before he got caught on the ropes. He didn’t actually go down: he literally got stuck between the middle and top rope, and the ref stopped it. He should’ve given him an 8-count. The fight didn’t merit a stoppage.

Matt - re: Time Warner
I can’t get to the channel (it doesn’t seem to exist at all; it says Box Azteca is on channel -1), but I was able to set a DVR series record. If you have DVR, you can probably set to record, then go to the show and just watch it as it records.

Soto-Perez R1
Perez with a flurry, but Soto avoids it all and throws back with purpose. Humberto looks REALLY loose, like he’s totally without any worry in there. This is like Bobby McFerrin: Boxer. He’s playing with Perez for the first half of the round, seeing where he’s at, where he’s going to go.
Little firefight breaks out, and Soto gets the better of it, but not without some resistance from Perez. He’s clearly the better, straighter, more technically sound puncher. Perez looks wide and much slower.
Soto 10-9

Arce-Nongqayi R1
I’m gonna type “Nong” for this dude because that name is TOO LONG.
Arce starting aggressive, looking to strike first. He’s targeting the body it would appear. Right hand upstairs lands for Arce and backs Nong down. Nong is looking to counter as Arce makes his usual charges. Arce gets tagged pretty good on a counter shot there.
Arce not landing clean and doesn’t appear to really be on his game. Nong, on the other hand, looks really confident. He’s got a good height advantage and his defense seems to be really troubling Arce. Arce’s cut already, I think, looks to be just over his left eyelid. Think it was a head clash. It’s really bugging him.
Nongqayi 10-9

Arce-Nongqayi R2
Yep, cut’s right on the eyelid. Bad, bad spot. Azteca card was for Nong, too. It was a clear round for him.
Good body shot by Arce, but Nong gets out of the corner. Jorge is going to throw now. He knows that cut is bad. Arce lunging with rights and lefts, Nong just sort of letting him do that and trying to land good counter shots, which he’s doing now and again. He’s just not letting Arce get anything done. All the cleanest shots are Nongqayi, or at least the vast majority. Good counter right by Nong. Arce looks small next to this guy — really small. Arce looks bad so far, but we know he’ll go on his shield if he’s going.
SHARP right counter by Nong, and now Arce misses some more, and Nong easily maneuvers out of the corner. Nongqayi is really putting it on him for these first two rounds.
Nongqayi 10-9
Nongqayi 20-18

Arce-Nongqayi R3
Nongqayi is spinning Arce all over the ring, not getting hit at all, and just taking him to school. I’m not saying what he’s doing is easy, but he’s making it look like it is, and he’s making Arce look like a bum. Arce coming at him, throwing, and Nong just drills him about three times with right hands. Right on the button. Arce is getting hammered in there and getting nothing done on the offensive side. This is a coming out party for Simphiwe Nongqayi thus far.
About a minute left in the round, and Arce is getting hit with good shots again. He’s throwing these LONG lunging right hands where he has to punch up to try and find Nongqayi, and it’s getting him hit a lot. And he gets rocked inside trying to dirty box and lead with his head. Arce is flailing around the ring and getting thoroughly dominated.
And the Azteca people might want to fix their on-screen clock because that round just ended with 16 seconds left on their clock.

Arce-Nongqayi R4
Arce trying to get rough inside, trying to frustrate Nongqayi and hopefully get him to start doing something stupid, because so far everything he’s done has been really smart and really solid. He’s staying out of Arce’s range. Arce has nothing tonight. Nong shakes him a little on a counter shot, and now he lands three punches to Arce’s flailing, discouraged series of misses. You can see Jorge getting visibly frustrated and wearing down mentally. He’s having an awful time doing anything right in this fight.
This round ends with four seconds left. Total cakewalk for Nongqayi so far.

Arce-Nongqayi R5
Arce trying to war, Nongqayi beating him to the punch. I don’t know if this is showing Nongqayi as all that great of a boxer or just Arce being fucking shot, because this is pretty bad. Nongqayi is landing heavier shots, better shots, cleaner shots, and more of them. Arce looks overwhelmed at this point, leading with his head but not even really throwing, just walking into uppercuts and shots from both hands. Now Nong is even taking the initiative, just blowing him up with combinations. The cut is bothering Arce. This is worse than the Darchinyan fight for Arce. He’s being embarrassed, and the crowd knows it, too.
Nongqayi 10-9

Arce-Nongqayi R6
5-0 on the Azteca card, too. It’s starting to feel like half a funeral for Arce’s career, but then this wouldn’t be the first time we wonder if he’s done. Chances are if this keeps up, he’ll get another soft touch on a Latin Fury, step back up, likely lose, and rinse and repeat until he feels like hanging up the gloves.
This round is going no better for Arce. He’s getting his ass kicked. Even a brief — very — flash of Arce offense is quelled before anything really happens. Arce getting drilled near the end of the round again. Arce’s going to have to find a miracle shot or something. This is fuck ugly.
Nongqayi 10-9

Simphiwe Nongqayi, it should be noted, seems to be benefiting from gloves taped far too high and tight. Check it out. Sorry if someone has already noted this in the thread. I tuned out for a bit.

Arce-Nongqayi R7
Arce again trying to war it out, and landing a few, but Nongqayi is faster, stronger, and longer. Quick rights are landing when he leads the action, and everything lands when he decides to counter. We haven’t even REALLY seen the Jorge Arce of myth and fable come out yet. He’s had no chances to do anything to this guy, and now he’s getting stuck in corners and taken advantage of. He’s about finished. BIG shots right and left from Nongqayi, and Arce ends the round looking as deflated as i’ve ever seen him.
Nongqayi 10-9

Arce-Nongqayi R8
Arce is pawing at the cut before the round even starts.
Sharp right by Nong. Arce almost falls down throwing a right hand that misses by two miles. This is…embarrassing. It kind of hurts to watch Arce so utterly dominated, because I feel like his body language is telling us that he doesn’t even have the desire anymore. He’s staying in this fight because that’s what he knows, not because he has any chance or any idea of how to turn this around, or any desire to figure out a way to do that.
ANd now they’re cleaning the entire ring in the middle of the round.
OH FUCK! ARCE SLUGS NONG DOWN! WOW! Wait, slip. Slip. Obviously a slip.
Nongqayi back up but his legs don’t look great. Arce coming in, and Nong basically shoves him down, and hard. Hey, he needs something. ARCE IS GUNNING FOR IT! ARCE IS THROWING EVERY SINGLE THING HE HAS! He’s leaving it in the ring! Call it luck, maybe it was a slip, but for the last minute or so of this round, Jorge Arce came alive again. I still stand by what I was saying, but that was some dramatic turn.
Arce 10-9
Nongqayi 79-73

Arce-Nongqayi R9
First half of the round is back to what we saw before. There’s water all over the ring, I think coming from the crowd. This is weird. Arce down in the corner on a slip. This is actually getting dangerous. Kind of reminding me of a less competitive Torres-Holt I.
Last minute of the round sees Arce getting rocked around pretty good by Nongqayi. Arce is really huffing at the air and doesn’t look like he has a lot left in his legs.

Arce-Nongqayi R10
Arce headlocks Nong and nearly runs him with a bulldog. If Nongqayi loses this fight on the cards, it’ll be a fucking outrage. Let’s say that now, because the action is getting repetitive to call (Nong punches Arce, Arce misses a lot), and now they’re stopping to wipe up the fucking ring again.
Arce charging again, what the hell do you know! Commentators seem to be freaking that Nong was down, but whatever. Arce is back to throwing everything he’s got left. Jesus, you cannot discount his heart. Ever. I don’t think he has any zip on these punches, though. They’re slow and just don’t look like they’re landing with much oomph.
Arce winging left hooks, if by left hook I mean giant swiping shots. Right hand Arce lands flush! I give him this round, but not as wide as the crowd might have thought.

Arce-Nongqayi R11
Nong backs him down on a quick left that lands on an off-balance Arce, and again they have to come in and wipe the goddamn ring. Why there? That wasn’t a slip, that was Arce getting clipped off balance. At the same time, I guess the ring is a goddamn mess.
I do notice that on every ring cleaning — EVERY SINGLE ONE — the referee stands very close with Arce and nowhere near Nongqayi. So…start your conspiracy engines, gentlemen. My first guess is he’s looking at the cut, but people like to get crazy, so hey.
Body shot by Arce may have hurt Nongqayi a little. He’s certainly on his bike now. Ref looking at the cut again. Crowd explodes for every little thing Arce does. Little is about the sum total of what he’s done, though.
