Rolly Romero Outpoints Ryan Garcia

New York, New York-Ryan Garcia (24-2, 20 kos) returned to the ring after a suspension throughout the year against Rolando “Rolly” Romero (17-2, 13 kos), but his return, however, did not go as expected. Ryan demonstrated the ring of the ring and seemed to be not ready for a power punch like Rolly.

The added weight improved the strength of Romero, leaving Garcia in the second round by a double left hook. Ryan began his offensive assault on the game gradually increasing his production from the first to the second round, throwing a punch in this round. When he suffered the defeat, he appeared shaken and then changed his approach by limiting the exchanges, significantly reducing his production for the following ten rounds.

“Rolly fought a good fight. He caught me early, without excuses. Congratulations on him. He did a great job and that’s,” Garcia said. Romero said Garcia as the most active of the two, throwing 215 fists, connecting -Ne 39 (Combox). The 490 combined strokes launched by the two fighters are the lowest tears thrown by Compubox in their 40 years of history.

With the victory of the unanimous decision, Rolly captured the WBA’s heavy weight title, putting again on the winning path. Defending a big name like Ryan only increases his profile and provides many preparation options. “The blows always help. Ryan is a warrior. He got up and ended the fight. I’m grateful for this opportunity,” Romero said. The transfer to 147 helped him, and he showed himself to the ring. Ryan hesitated to involve -after heard Rolly’s power. From now on, we could see Old Rolly, the Power Puncher who dropped the opponents.

At the CO-MAIN event, Devin Haney assumed Jose Ramirez and, like Garcia-Romero, was a limited exchange game where we saw that Haney adopted a very safe approach through boxing abroad for the full 36-minute game. The 503 strokes combined launched by the two fighters won fourth place in the compubox ranking for the rare strokes thrown, just below Garcia-Romero. Records, the fatal fury organizers did not intend when the event was created. Haney surpassed Ramirez from 70 to 40 in the total punching, achieving -the victory of the unanimous decision. It was a very technical game of Haney, who seemed happy to do a minimum job to get the victory. “I felt good to go into the struggle and the play plan in which I worked definitely showed. I decreased. I couldn’t do anything there,” said Haney. He had previously stated that he was going to correct the mistakes of Garcia’s struggle and would return to the best, which is the box. This strategy decreases the opportunities of opponents, which makes it difficult to land.

In the Triplehader Obrador, Teofimo Lopez defeated Arnold Barboza Jr. through a unanimous decision. López demonstrated his agility and elusion, keeping out of Barboza’s punches. The speed and the work were challenging for Barboza. “We gave it everything, but this time we were short. Congratulations to Teophimo for a hard victory. We will take advantage of the experience, we will learn it and we will return stronger. The work continues. Maybe we can fight against Ryan Next, or Haney, or anyone who will give us a chance,” said Barboza. As for López, a heavy weight movement could be in the future, saying that it could be time to move. He looks like he has his sight in Jaron Ennis, shouting, “I’m Dora The Explorer, and I am looking for boots.”
