Lucky for you. Steven Torres bout is the swing bout.

So hang on, televised card starts at 5, has 2 fights, then at 8 main card starts? that cant make sense unless they want to set a world record for most shit ever talked.

No it’s not a continuation.

FOX programme will probably end after the 2 fights. They’ll go off the air. Then the PPV starts later.

Is that when the non televised fights are? or are they befor the 5pm card? Geeze thats a weird schedual whatever it is. why would you ever not continue the free card into the PPV card.

Bruzon v Pero up.

[ironbeard]

Rd 1 = bombs away! These big boys be pounding. Two good prospects here. Well schooled. Good jabs, bodywork followed by jawbreakers.

10-9 Bruzon (close)

[skanksta]

This is pretty good !

Pero got a bit of Joe Joyce about him.

[ironbeard]

Rd 2 = Pero hurts Bruzon. In control at the mo

10-9 Pero
19-19

[gregregegg]

missed round one but round 2 was a cracker. Pero is hitting very low though and not even getting warned. amazing these two are fighting each other, i guess there are to many cubans to invest in them all right now so gotta get cut out the fat.

Pero round but great action.

[skanksta]

Bruzon a Cuban Mexican

[ironbeard]

Rd 3 =Bruzon comes on early but gets hurt again late

10-9 Pero
29-28 Pero

[skanksta]

Great fight this.

Pero winning 30-27 for me, but it's close and hard. Anyone could go any minute.

[ironbeard]

Rd 4 =

10-9 Pero
39-37 Pero

[skanksta]

Gotta give Bruzon for the cojones in the 4th.

39-37 Pero.

[skanksta]

Great 5th !
Great fight !

Bruzon staggers Pero.

48-47

Bruzon breaking Pero's heart a bit like Simpson vs Tatum.

[ironbeard]

Rd 5 = Bruzon hurts Pero!

10-9 Bruzon
48-47 Pero

Great fight!

[gregregegg]

well im very confident this is going to be fight of the night. boys are banging, but with some skill, momentum back and fowards. going to get grindy these last few rounds.

[SportsRatings]

These guys are great. Fewer than 10 pro fights each, undefeated and taking each other on and fighting in a phone booth, good work rate, great chins on both.

Will be fun to watch both of them over the next few years.

[ironbeard]

Rd 6 = both winded for good reason. Really high volume hard hitting well schooled fight. Bruzon edges this very close round.

10-9 Bruzon
57-57

[skanksta]

57-57 Pero gassing.

THIS is why they don't put ambitious prospects in together early.
It's a career shortening fight. Really painful stuff. Terrible fight for a promoter
But great for fans !

[gregregegg]

dont know if bruzon is actualy mexican at all or he just likes the colours but if he is he needs to lean into that. mexicans get pushed... cubans not so much.

[skanksta]

Pero comes storming back with wild haymakers and thudding body shots.

4-3 up.
