your stars are but dust on my shoes
Verdejo vs Nakatani was a good ass fight :whew:
Not going front the first half of the fight had me fantasizing about a Verdejo vs Lopez bout, Verdejo was looking sharp with the power shots
I agree with Bradely that it seemed like he gassed in the second half and the fatigue just took all his punch resistance away
He got buzzed once before but the way he went down from that jab was just :huhldup:.

Between this, the Zepeda Baranhcyz fight, Lopez vs Loma, and even Bud knocking out Brook.... TR been having some good ass fights in this second half of the year

Watching the fight had me kinda shocked that Nakatani gave Teo that much trouble when they fought. The way Verdejo kept landing that straight right hand early, you would think that Teo would've had an easy night against Naka.

Verdejo didn't look terrible though. He should've made the mid fight adjustment to stop trying to go for the KO shot and boxed more efficiently. He was up wide too, could've coasted those last two rounds.
