[skanksta]

20-17 LN.

[brilo33]

gave 4th nery but they had a trade i think castro might of made nery think there

[skanksta]

39-36 LN thru' 4.

Castro behind but back in the fight.

[skanksta]

48-46 Castro won the last 2 for me.

LN looking for the KO a bit much and being outworked.

[brilo33]

close rd nery boxing causious at the start but at the end tryed fighting castro could be dangerous

[brilo33]

think a nery rd there close fight castro looks a little robotic

[skanksta]

agree

58-55 Nery needed to win one and he did.

[brilo33]

close rd s but little things nicking it rd 7 nery

[skanksta]

68-65

[skanksta]

78-74 Nery got this unless Castro can get a KO.....

[brilo33]

good rd8 for nery landed lots of shots

[CMCanavessi]

Wasn't that a down?

[brilo33]

Wasn't that a down?

think just a trip wasnt scored

[skanksta]

Nery miles ahead even w/o a KD.

[brilo33]

yea castro needs a ko only

[CMCanavessi]

That was an amazing performance by Nery. His stamina today was insane. Great conditioning.

[brilo33]

clear nery win for me looked good when he let his hands go, but does sometimes doesnt do a lot

[skanksta]

WTF it's a close split ??

[CMCanavessi]

That card for Castro was dope

[skanksta]

What were they watching ?

Castro briefly came in to it after a bad start, but Nery won early and late, won his rounds clearly AND got a KD.

[margaret thatcher]

eh, dont agree with you guys, i thought it was pretty even after the knockdown, nery spent loads of time just bouncing about doing nothing but posing while castro flicked him with straight shots. sometimes nery would eat 3 or 4 flicks straight and just nod his head but not bother to move or raise his hands

by far the biggest moments were from nery, but round by round 95-94 / 96-93 feels right for him. a big round isnt worth more than a close one unless you score a kd and he only did that once

i agree i said there is rds where nery dont do anything , and thats dangerous

[brilo33]

ramons v hernandez good fight oldv young i thnk young will win

[skanksta]

Meh, maybe.

I thought Nery wasn't doing much 'cos he didn't need to and Castro's "straight shots" were missing or landing on gloves.
