Royval should take this. Moreno looked pretty ordinary tonight, wouldn’t be surprised if he hanged it up soon

I lean Moreno because I'm only unsure about rd 2 and 3 and Royval would need both. I hope Royval gets it though, those were some juicy bets on him rd 2.

I have Moreno 3-2 in very close rounds but more accurate shots were done by him in the 5th

Moreno just holding onto those body locks instead of trying to throw punches probably cost him the 5th. it's all about damage, judges won't care that you "controlled" him on the fence for like 20 seconds

48-47 either way. Momentum was on Royval's side; I think he may have done enough.


More importantly, what the **** was Moreno's strategy? Sloppy ass overhands and zero adaptability
