Ben Crocker vs Stelios Papadopoulos 2

Post by handsofstone »

This Saturday on DAZN from Essex, 12-0 super lightweight Crocker rematches Greek Papadopoulos over 10 rounds, Crocker beat Papadopoulos by a point over 8 rounds last time out, obviously close enough to warrant a rematch, Crocker had Papadopoulos down in that fight as well so must've been close

Crocker does the double over Papadopoulos with another close points win, 97-93, 96-94(snap) and 96-95, really competitive fight, Crocker was the sharper starter, using that height and reach to keep Papadopoulos at bay, jabs and uppercuts working well but Papadopoulos kept plugging away and in the middle rounds bridged the gap, quickening the feet and getting quick bursts of punches off, it was tit for tat down the stretch, close rounds both men having their moments but it was Crocker who edged it, rightfully so imo
