Round-by-Round: Errol Spence Jr. vs. Lamont Peterson - January 20, 2018

[Ruthless-RKO]

I had 115-112! FORTUNA!

[marvelous marv]

I have it about even. If Easter retains Mikey or Vlom need to come take his title away..

[Ruthless-RKO]

Official scorecards!

114-113 Fortuna

And Still!!

Robert Easter!!

[Ruthless-RKO]

A lot of boos! But the point deduction cost him..

[Ruthless-RKO]

Steve Farhood - Unnoficial Sho scorer had it 115-112..
Twitter poll shows 62% of fans voted that Fortuna won!

[Ruthless-RKO]

Easter is a big lightweight.. well tall. He should box more. Garcia stops him IMO..

[Ruthless-RKO]

Ring walks started

[gilgamesh]

I had it 114-113 Fortuna in the opening bout for the record.

Very close fight. Nothing I'd call a robbery because a lot of the rounds could've gone either way.

Easter really needs to learn to use his height.

[SenorPipino]

Fight after fight, Easter shows us that he's nothing special.

He has a lot of tools but simply can't fight at a high level consistently.

I actually had Easter winning 114-113 because of the point deduction. It was even in rounds n my view.

I expected Fortuna to put on a good performance despite being a ridiculous 7-1 underdog. He's a pretty decent fighter and Easter is vastly overrated.

I would love to see a rematch. Fortuna could easily reverse it. He does need to shorten his punches.

Round one to Spence.

[Ruthless-RKO]

1-0 Spence

[lazboy]

Wow Lamont is playing with fire. This could end very soon, 2-0 Spence.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Very good 2nd round for Spence. Gtrat body work.

2-0

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

Spence maybe hurt him in the second there. Clear ES round two.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Always good to see Julie Lederman.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Very good 3rd round for both. I gave the edge to Spence though. Peterson not out of this so early. 3-0 Spence.

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

LP trying to counter ES' body punching without success. Did land a couple of rights though. Closer round to Spence.

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

Spence 40-36 so far.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Peterson needs to get busier..

He's been shook a few times. Spence 4-0..

Before this round. Peterson had thrown around 70 punches all fight.

Spence has all thr slick movements and landing the better shots!

[SenorPipino]

Imagine if Spence was targeting the very suspect body of Thurman with those shots.

It might be a short night. Peterson taking them well....for now. Let's see what he has left down the stretch.

3-1 Spence.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Flash type knockdown. But Peterson not knowing where he is. If this continues, Spence is winning in a few rounds. Spence is loving this.

Why is Peterson standing and trying to trade!?

He's coming back though! 10-8 round.

50-44!

8th time Peterson has been knocked down!

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

LP in his shell too long gets knocked down. Then fights Spence off as best he can for rest of round. ES 10-8 round five.

[Ruthless-RKO]

A calm round.. is Peterson about to quit? He said he's losing every round..

[Ruthless-RKO]

60-53 to Spence

[Ruthless-RKO]

I'd rather Peterson lose a shut out than see him quit.
