Double kd tonight
Carlos Takam, match event in Las Vegas MGM, won against Forrest by unanimous decision.
Takam brought them cleaner, and when they met his superiority was not overflowing but certainly clear.
It was a good match, a lot of mobility for almost the whole match, to say that the clinch phases were different, Takam was told to pay attention to the head, after finish his series he went in with his head a bit, to prevent from replicating, partly because of the job he has, partly because he turned a lot on the left side of Forrest and therefore found himself there. With the exception of this small technical error, Carlos did a good job, showed good clarity, put clean shots, took a good hit on the left eye right away, which bored him a little, but had a good match. He threw and placed more shots than Forrest, who never gave up, they both knew that this could be a good pass for more important matches. In the last few shots Forrest showed a little more dynamism but Takam controlled it, deservedly winning.
In interview he was asked who he wanted to meet later and he also brought out a certain Tyson Fury, good luck Carlos.
Really incredible match that lasted very little was that between Corey Champion (2,3,1ko) against Peter Cortez (2,2,1ko); there were three knockdowns, one of which two, a quite rare event; in the end Champion closed the match in the first round with the third knockdown of Cortez, quick match.
Between Joshafat Ortiz and Joshua Orta both uninvited, the majority victory was won by the first.
Donte Stubbs defeat Fred Wilson; the winner landed Wilson twice on the third and fifth rounds, what appeared was that Stubbs seemed more determined, Wilson seemed a bit surprised to find such an opponent determined and leathery, Stubbs had fought a few days ago losing on points.
Now we come to the most interesting and exciting match of the evening, after the main event.
At the level of junior featherweight; Carlo Castro (26.11ko) defeat Cesar Juarez (26.9); Juarez has faced top fighters in the category who came out defeated before the limit twice and in other circumstances with dignity, he faced world champions.
Tonight Castro’s superiority was disarming, he never let him into the match and at the end of the second round he remained seated, rightly; they did not make him play the fifth round. We saw speed, precision, and an abysmal difference that should not have been, at least so striking. good job of Castro; for Juarez we wish you a speedy return. Post match Castro was asked who would like to fight, of course he replied: well with the top of the category considering my placings in the related acronyms; it seems right and more than deserved his chance to play a match for a title. Excellent his performance, ruthless rapid, and with shots including an upright worthy of the boxing manual, against a good opponent, let’s remember him.
