Rd 8 = Rivera busy early but Rosario lands good right. Rosario comes on. Rivera comes forward. Rosario trying to close show but Rivera going nowhere. A bit of war at the end.

Conceicao v Polanco

Rd 1 = Polanco looks two weight classes south. Conc winging it. Jabs to bod hurting Polanco. Might end to bod at some point.

10-9 Conc

I think they're staggering the Taylor v Lopez and Munguia v Derevyanchenko main events aren't they ?
Munguia v Derevyanchenko was supposed to be first.

Rd 2 = Polanco comes out throwing but Conc different level so far. Polanco taking some heavy rights. Polanco flops like a World Cup player from accidental contact. Looking for a way out. Now they let it go on.

10-9 Conc

Drama in the corner.

Polanco is a pudendum. No decision.

No idea. I am barely aware of what time zone I’m in.

Taylor has rehydrated to a much bigger man than Lopez.

19-19. Lopez landed the better shots. Lopez looks very sharp and countering well. Taylor still looks wound up and uncomfortable.

29-28 Taylor. Taylor was the more active fighter pushing the pace. Teo still throwing the sharper punches but didn't do enough.

I was eyeballing, but it seem tough to score. Lopez has the better punches, but Taylor has the activity. Just seems like Taylor smothers a lot of his shots, though.

38-38. Taylor came put strong and then Teo controlled the rest of the round. Ref is doing a good job.

Still only glancing, but Taylor looking a bit lost, no. Lopez looks to be cruising and getting some precise shots in.

I'm calling it, Teo is back. Man, Taylor is looking scared tonight. Hard to believe this is the dude that beat Prograis.
