Truthfully the kid isnt worth talking about, he is so far behind the curve right now (I understand he is only 21). At first you could give him the benefit of the doubt, but the boy seems to be regressing in his style. When he started out he had the style of someone who looked like they were trying to "act" the part of a boxer, which made me think that maybe he had the upside of Joe Mesi (who fights the same way). Now he has devolved into taking a single shot or a simple 1-2 and falling into his opponent, or bull rushing in with wide flailing combos. This wouldnt bother me if it didnt seem like the kid was going backwards instead of forward in his progression.
As far as the fight tonight I have Farrell winning by 1 point
1 Marrone
2 Marrone
3 Farrell (Close)
4 Farrell
5 Farrell
6 Farrell (Close)
7 Marrone (very close)
8 Even
Some flip flopping of close rounds and I can get just about any result (even the ludicrous one 2 judges had. Either way the announcers had it right when they said Marrone showed nothing.
