Dirrell's corner really has to think about calling this. The cut is too rough.

 

Thank god. No one's going to doubt the balls on Dirrell, but it had to be stopped. Great win for Benavidez.

 

Spence headed to the ring. It's go time.

 

Porter round for me.

 

Spence fighting the dirty fight out of these two is a quality plot twist.

 

If Porter had some real pop, this would be getting really problematic for Spence. Still, Porter fighting his fight.

 

All the low blows.

 

Jack Reiss needs to do his job.

 

Really good sequence there in the middle of the ring. Dunno if Shawn can keep this pace and effort up.

 

Down goes Porter!

 

Bunch of bombs from Spence there. Perfect left hand got Porter. Textbook.

 

Goddamn what a fight,

 

Porter fought his ass off. That knockdown is going to shift it the other way, sadly.

 

Split decision.

116-111 for Spence, 115-112 for Porter, 116-111 for Spence.

 

Danny Garcia in the ring.

So, Spence-Garcia and Pacquiao-Mikey is probably how it ends up? Eh.

 

There’s a small Showtime card featuring some prospects this evening, but there’s only one real card worth focusing on tonight:

DAZN, 9:00 pm ET, Gennadiy Golovkin vs Sergiy Derevyanchenko.
The undercard will feature Ivan Baranchyk vs Gabriel “Tito” Bracero, plus prospects Israil Madrimov, Ali Akhmedov, Brian Ceballo, Nikita Ababiy, and the debuting Joseph Ward. European middleweight champ Kamil Szeremeta will also be in action, possibly setting up a fight with the main event winner. GGG-Derevyanchenko is a real good main event, a couple of top five or so middleweights for the vacant IBF belt, with Golovkin going after career win No. 40.

Main card starts at 9, DAZN broadcast and some undercard fights start at 7.

 

Brutal.

 

Ring walks starting shortly.

 

Sergiy in the ring. Here comes Gennadiy.

 

Down goes Derevyanchenko!

 

Oh fuck at that cut.
