10-9 Jacoby. Picking him apart at range and killing his body in the clinch.

Close round, but Menifield seemed to be getting the better of the exchanges most of the round.

Good round. Better round for Alonzo than the first. Jacoby found a way to keep the pressure though even after getting stunned. Tough round to score.

DC is right. Why not fight behind the jab ? It's been money all fight.
