ROUND BY ROUND by Boxing Websites: Diaz vs Malignaggi

[Fights]

Klassen-Guerrero R8

Guerrero looking a bit more tentative, I think. But he’s also trying to keep Klassen the hell away, which plays into it. FIGHT IN THE CROWD!

Left hook by Klassen. Round is winnable with a minute left. Klassen is full of life, Guerrero looks tired from working so much early. I really think Klassen is taking momentum, due to the cut or otherwise.

Klassen 10-9
Guerrero 77-75

Klassen-Guerrero R9

Klassen is making Guerrero work a whole lot harder than it appeared he might during the first four rounds. Klassen trying to work inside, and Guerrero trying to stop him from doing it at any cost. The right hand is really starting to work for Klassen, and there’s a body combination and a shot upstairs. RIPPING body shots by Klassen. Guerrero is stuck on the ropes and getting wailed on. This fight is WAY closer than Bob Papa and Max are making it out to be. I mean WAY closer.

VICIOUS body shots by Klassen. He’s really beating the **** out of Guerrero with those. Guerrero is tiring badly and getting chippy.

Klassen 10-9
Guerrero 86-85

Klassen-Guerrero R10

Cleaning the ring up before we start the round.

Klassen has worked Guerrero into a bit of an offensive crawl, but Guerrero is trying to work in spurts. Klassen with another hard body shot, and then more work downstairs. He’s really beating on Guerrero, while Guerrero’s punches have turned pretty slappy. I think we’re looking at a fight that either man can win.

Klassen 10-9

Klassen-Guerrero R11

Hurrld has it 97-93 Guerrero.

Klassen chasing and catching Guerrero pretty consistently. I mean the commentary is getting ****ing ridiculous. Guerrero is losing this fight in the second half, and I think fairly obviously, and Klassen is getting zero respect from these guys. They’re telling a story and not calling a fight anymore. It’s absolute garbage.

Guerrero throwing some near the end of the round.

Klassen 10-9
Klassen 105-104

Klassen-Guerrero R12

I just do not get the scoring by Harold and the commentary here. It’s not even close to as wide as they’re pretending.

Klassen slips with about a minute left in the fight. Pretty even round until now, I think, but HBO tells me Guerrero is DOMINANT!!!!!!! Guerrero slapping away, Klassen just coming in. Uppercut by Klassen, blocks everything Guerrero throws, and gets going inside. Right hand upstairs by Klassen. Body shot by Klassen. Good fight, and they’re pretending Guerrero dominated the fight.

Guerrero 10-9
114-114
