I'm out in bristol on the sauce with old mates so if anyone can keep me updated on the fight i'd be grateful!

Okay.

Booth generally ontop in his Commonwealth title fight. Opponent is not completely shoddy, but Booth has won every round - flooring his opponent once.

Cheers stu. Keep it coming!

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 18:15

Pretty much following the same pattern, into the 10th.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 18:28

118-110
117-111
118-111

All to Booth.... I'm not sure if Booth really lost a round.

Here we go then. Lets see this Spanish hype job.

Munroe UD12 for me, unless Kiko nails him early.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 18:47

Round one - hardish to call, Munroe maybe getting too involved but looks quite sharp..... Martinez looks strong, I think he power is for real.

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 07 Mar 2008, 18:50

Martinez seems unable to let shots go until his opponent stands still, which in Monroe's case is virtually never.

Positive start. Good crowd support.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 18:50

Round 2 - Munroe boxing better, Martinez just stalking.... Munroe round.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 18:56

Round 3 - Munroe boxing really well, Martinez looks very strong though but hardly punching.

A bit reminiscent of Abraham vs Elcock - is Munroe over exerting?

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 18:57

Round 4 - Another Munroe round, building confidence now.

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 07 Mar 2008, 18:57

If Monroe had serious punching ability he could nail Martinez every time with the straight left down the middle. Martinez makes Michael Katsidis look scientific.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:02

Round 5 - tougher round to score..... Munroe just being flashy not doing much - Martinez closing.

Martinez round.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:06

Round 6 - Close round to score. Munroe needs to put more weight in his punches, Martinez getting more accurate.

Sky scored it for Martinez, I scored it for Munroe.

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:12

Monroe talking freely in the corner between rounds, certainly fit enough.

I'd like to see him at least score with 6-10 solid jabs per round, that would see him to victory.

Dunne must be thinking how did I lose to this guy...

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:12

Round 7 - Munroe round, couple of nice combinations - Martinez did something.

Bit of a swelling occuring on Munroe.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:13

Munroe was told he is only a round 1 by Maloney or someone, so he goes for it in the 8th and wins the round clearly... Martinez is still dangerous and not hurt at all - but Munroe took charge.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:17

9th round, Munroe round clear again... Martinez isn't doing much and is now looking frustrated and flummux.

I'd like to see Munroe still punch with more authority.

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:19

Martinez getting bullied now.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:22

10 round - Munroe dominating again, putting on the pressure on Martinez backing him up.

If he loses now without getting KO'd - it will be a Kelly vs Maladrottu 1 style robbery.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:25

11th round -again Munroe... he is in total control.

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 07 Mar 2008, 19:31

Thoroughly professional job from Monroe. Not always pretty but he did the business.

Back to the drawing board for Martinez. I'm sure he looks devastating on a punch bag....
