Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. vs. Uriah Hall
Walkouts: Alrighty, this show is finally about to get on the road. Hall walks out with a black t-shirt emblazoned with BE REAL on it in big bold letters. Is he real? Are any of us? Well, we’re going to find out soon as he’s in the ring and ready for a real-check with JCC Jr.
Chavez Jr. out with a head band and a poncho with MEXICO in the Mexican tricolor. Who ever would have thought this is a fight that would happen? Welp, let’s get to it.
Round 1: Hall comes out jabbing early as Chavez Jr. circles the outside, looking for an opening. He’s circling freely as Hall doesn’t have the footwork to cut the ring while they’re fresh. Chavez Jr. lands a decent counter here or there and a body jab but output is very low for both men to start. Hall really relying on the jab. It’s about the only thing he’s thrown. Chavez Jr. rips to the body well and lands a good left hook at the end of the round as Hall chases him.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Chavez Jr.
Round 2: Chavez Jr. still showing basic ringcraft and that’s putting him ahead at this point. Hall jabbing and plodding onward, and Chavez Jr. moves around, picking his spots. He lands a decent left hook at the end of a combination when Hall got him backed up. Then he moves again. This is such a casual pace and the boo birds are starting to show themselves. But then Hall gets Chavez Jr. against the ropes and lands a body shot.
Chavez Jr. presses out with a combination. He seems content to just slightly outwork Hall if he can. Or perhaps he’s just wary of a big shot in return. Hall certainly tries with a four-punch combination but all of them are blocked and nothing else of significance happens.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Chavez Jr., 20-18 Chavez Jr. overall.
Round 3: Again Hall takes the center and starts jabbing. He’s starting to have more success cutting the ring now as Chavez Jr. tires. He’s landing the jab through the guard now some. Chavez Jr. mixing up his targets better though, working the body plenty, and Hall is either on offense or on defense. There’s no blend to his game.
Chavez Jr. starting to open up in space a little more. He’s feeling confident, but still cautious. Hall keeps trying the same jab into a looping right and it’s going nowhere. The crowd is restless but just before the round ends theres a decent exchange from both men with hooks.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Chavez Jr., 30-27 Chavez Jr. overall.
Round 4: Hall right back on it. Marching forward and sticking the jab out there. Chavez Jr. moving away but Hall does finally get him to the ropes early and drops a combination with a good uppercut in there. His best work of the fight. Chavez Jr. gets out and back on the bike.
Chavez Jr.’s offense has fallen off this round. Hall having more success getting him to the ropes and in the corner. Can’t find a big punch yet, but he’s getting the run of play. Jab landing more and it’s forcing Chavez Jr. to start to throw back now. Hall again gets Chavez Jr. on the ropes but still can’t find the big shot. At least not yet.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Hall, 39-37 Chavez Jr. overall.
Round 5: This has not been a great fight and I have little hope the final rounds will change things. It certainly starts the same as the past rounds, with Hall marching on. Chavez Jr. tries to throw a zippy hook to get respect but comes up with air. And he doesn’t have the legs to circle as well as he did before. Hall takes advantage with a sequence of shots right down the middle that gets Chavez Jr. moving backwards.
Hall coming on strong now as Chavez Jr. looks like he might be spent. In-fighting along the ropes now and Chavez Jr. actually doing good body work here, but Hall is competing. Chavez Jr. rips a big hook to the body when they break. Small uppercuts inside. Both me chucking them in there and with 10 seconds left they star brawling! Neither man lands anything huge but the arena has come to life.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Hall, 48-47 Chavez Jr. overall.
Round 6: Final round and all to play for and now Chavez Jr. is coming forward. Maybe he knows he doesn’t have to preserve gas anymore. But Hall rips to the body as he comes in. Again. Hall is ready to fire counters when Chavez Jr. steps in, so instead Chavez Jr. starts retreating. Hall takes the opportunity to advance with combinations but can’t land. Does find a good hook to the body when Chavez Jr. fires back though.
Not long left now and Hall was pulling away but Chavez Jr. empties it the tank. Gets caught with a shot though and Hall has him along the ropes again. Chavez Jr. is fine but bad optics. More inside fighting. 20 seconds left and Chavez Jr. really starts going. He lands a nasty hook and then goads Hall who can’t get anything back before the round ends.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Chavez Jr., 58-56 Chavez Jr. overall.
OFFICIAL DECISION: Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. def. Uriah Hall via unanimous decision (59-55, 59-55, 58-56)
Tony Aguilar vs. Corey Marksman
Walkouts: Marksman is out in a green and blue robe and he takes his time getting to the ring. Nothing much to report here. Maybe Aguilar will offer more.
Aguilar comes out with a giant Mexican flag behind him. He’s in a black vest and all smiles. Great energy around this man as he walks to the ring.
Round 1: Marksman takes the center early and comes out firing. Aguilar changing levels and returning. 10 seconds in and this is already better than the previous fight. Both men really boxing in there, changing levels, battling footwork, trying to get angles. And Aguilar is the first to succeed as he lands a nasty right hand at the end of a combo.

Aguilar comes in and a clinch ensues. Punches from both before they’e broken up. Back at range and Aguilar snapping that jab, causing Marksman to return the favor.

Another good exchange. Marksman lands a big shot but Aguilar gets his own hook in a few moments later. Aguilar really relying on his hooks now and he’s getting moved around the ring a lot. Marksman lands a mean check hook that puts a jolt through Aguilar. He’s got his timing and it’s starting to pay off.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Marksman, 19-19 overall.
Round 3: Aguilar getting a bit wild with his offense now. Still staying tight with his defense but Marksman puts an incredible 9-punch combo on him that looked like Lomachenko with the angle cuts. Aguilar responds by biting down and brawling and that gets Marksman’s respect as he eats one.
Aguilar eats another shot and forces a clinch and he’s really holding this one. Might be stunned because he’s grabbing a lot now. Marksman finding some decent shots in here. Marksman lands a mean right hook during an exchange and again Aguilar goes back to brawling. He doesn’t have much of that in him though and it’s clinches where Marksman lands another few short shots inside.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Marksman, 29-28 Marksman overall.
Round 4: Marksman holding the center without issue now. Aguilar tries to get him off-kilter with a wild combination that comes up with air. Bit slower pace this round. Marksman can’t quite get home with much offense and Aguilar being a touch more patient. Also, some clinching.
Marksman is setting a good range though. He’s not getting hit almost at all now. Unless Aguilar clinches. Then both trade body work inside. More of that as the least interesting round of the fight ends.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Marksman, 39-37 Marksman overall.
Round 5: Round starts hot with both men standing in and whipping hooks at each other. Nothing lands but they’re going. That tapers off though and Aguilar is backing up, waiting to explode. Marksman not giving him the window yet. Does land a decent left though.
Marksman lands his own but he’s slowing. Much more cautious. Aguilar starting to build momentum and goes to the body. Marksman spins him to the corner and tries to tee off but can’t find much. Short time and Marksman swings but misses all his shots. Hard round to score.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Aguilar, 48-47 Marksman overall.
Round 6: Clinch almost immediately to start the sixth. Break and Aguilar is holding the center, working his jab. Marksman with plenty of feints now as he moves around. Neither man is landing much anymore. What started out strong has fallen off. Aguilar lands a glancing right hand and Marksman tries to get it back but no joy.
Marksman starts to force the issue a bit but he can’t land anything of substance. Aguilar is showing good defense. But now Marksman lands a stinging pair of hooks as Aguilar got caught napping. Aguilar returns a three punch combo of his own and then Marksman gets Aguilar to the ropes and fires uppercuts and hooks. Aguilar blocks most and some good infighting from both men ends the round.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Aguilar, 57-57 overall.
Round 7: Aguilar comes out trying to get something going and eats a good combination for his trouble when he then moved to clinch. Marksman still showing great speed in there, even if the volume has dropped off. But he zips a combo in and maybe Marksman has a second wind. Aguilar stymies that by clinching.
Aguilar is really clinching a lot now. Running in and bailing to the hips if he fails. Does land a good straight to the body though. Then an uppercut but Marksman gets two back on him and Aguilar starts swinging for respect. He eats a big shot and then moves into the clinch and here come some roughhouse tactics, head pulls and uppercuts. Aguilar showing the fool toolbox out there.

H20 Sylve vs. Lucas Bahdi
Walkouts: Badhi is rocking some cheetah print shorts and a vest. Sylve has a black and white robe and he’s rocking a big grin on his way to the ring. OK, let’s do this.
Round 1: Sylve takes the enter to start and sets a long jab out there. It’s crisp and he’s got good early range. It’s all jab early. Bahdi can’t quite find a way in and Sylve is moving him around the ring with the jab. Sylve puts a left hook to the body and then a right as Bahdi covers up. Bahdi still trying to find a way in as the jab sets the tone.
Now a couple decent right hands as Bahdi tries to step outside. Sylve getting Bahdi to the ropes and showing good footwork, controllling the pace and positioning. Looping right from Sylve is blocked to end the round.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Sylve.
Round 2: Bahdi showing a bit more urgency to start this round, looking to land his own jab or a leaping left hook. Sylve eats a few but gets his jab going again. Then lands a good short right inside. Bahdi starting to dip his head in and Sylve is content to mix it up in close.
Now we get back to space and this is where Sylve has been the best. Bahdi still struggling with the range and Sylve trying to pick him off when he does come in. Or else he snaps the jab. Bahdi a bit lost for options in there right now.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Sylve, 20-18 Sylve overall.
Round 3: Sylve holding the center and starting to peacock a bit in there. He’s letting Badhi punch and slipping. But he does a bit too much and eats a hook and an uppercut. That gets him up and Sylve returns with authority. Badhi takes a deep breath, resigning himself to this fight.
Sylve lands a good shovel punch when Bahdi threw lazily. He’s being very patient though. If Sylve went pedal down, he could do something but he’s waiting for it to come to him. And it nearly does as he thumps Bahdi with one. Badhi hanging tough but he’s starting to look a little outmatched in there. And eats a hook before the end of the round.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Sylve, 30-27 Sylve overall.
Round 4: Sylve takes the center and he’s coming in with the jab. Bahdi looking a bit frantic and fully retreating now. Sylve walking him around the cage and starting to tee off. Bahdi covering up and then finding windows to return fire, but it’s a water gun against a forest fire right now. And Sylve is starting to really dig to the body. That’s going to hurt.
I honestly can’t remember the last good punch Badhi landed. He’s trying in there but he can’t get anything going. And Sylve is starting to tag him. Nasty uppercut snaps Badhi’s head as the rout continues.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Sylve, 40-36 Sylve overall.
Round 5: Sylve playing with his food a bit now. He’s looking for something very flashy and that’s letting Badhi come forward and try to build confidence. Then Sylve rips the body. The night desperately needs a finish, and I’m not sure Sylve’s going to get it at this rate.
Badhi lands a good right hand as Sylve got a little lazy with a body shot left hook. Badhi trying to work his way back into this fight. Sylve’s offense has slowed to a crawl as he plays around. And Badhi lands a right. Sylve is truly just messing about and tossed the round as a result.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Badhi, 49-46 Sylve overall.
Round 6: Let’s see if Sylve wants to fight this round.
Well, he certainly comes out with that intent. He’s in Badhi’s face immediately and the offense flows. Badhi returns fire and lands a good show but Sylve is now turning it on. But Badhi lands another one and this time Sylve goes back to space. And now comes the jab. But Badhi isn’t going away. And he’s the one moving Sylve back.
But Sylve lands a good combo to the body.
OHHHHHHHHHHH. SYLVE GOT A LITTLE TOO CHEEKY IN THERE AND BADHI LAMPED HIM!! STUNNED HIM WITH A HOOK AND THEN SLEPT HIM WITH A COMBO. OUT OF NOWHERE AND AN INCREDIBLE COMEBACK WIN FOR BADHI!!!
OFFICIAL DECISION: Lucas Bahdi def. H20 Sylve via knockout — Round 6, 2:27
Amanda Serrano vs. Stevie Morgan
Walkouts: Morgan walks out and she’s in a white robe with red trim. And to be entirely frank, she appears a bit overwhelmed by the moment, a full arena here to watch her compete.
And that arena goes crazy when Serrano walks out. She’s draped in a purple cloack and full of energy as she walks out. Business time.
Round 1: Morgan comes out slashing the jab right away. Serrano is undeterred and sits down int he middle and starts getting after it. Morgan backs and returns. We are right into the action early here and Morgan is trying to send a message out of the gate.
Unfortunately, Serrano is clearly much faster and she’s landing a lot on Morgan early. Morgan trying to defend and return but her plan of coming out hot has backfired as Serrano is teeing off on her now. Morgan in retreat mode, desperately jabbing for space but Serrano is hunting.
Oh, Morgan lands a good right as Serrano is not giving her any respect and Serrano tags Morgan at the end of the round. That was good action for the whole round.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Serrano.
Round 2: Serrano right across the ring and the onslaught begins. This fight might not last long at this rate. Morgan only has a weak jab and poor blocking and Serrano knows it. She’s turning it up with combinations and Morgan can’t even get her hands up well anymore. She’s getting lit up and the referee jumps in to stop the bout early in the second round. A completely one-sided thrashing.
OFFICIAL DECISION: Amanda Serrano def. Stevie Morgan via TKO — Round 2, 0:38
