[Boxing]: Ancajas vs Rodriguez - April 10th

[cryptomaniac_xxx]

It was a sweet victory for Ancajas as Rodriguez is a tough mofo, typical of Mexican fighters. I guess he built a good lead and his punch is more telling than Rodriguez and Ancajas has proved again why he is the champion. However, it seems that he gas out allowing Rodriguez to gather momentum but it was not enough as he win on a close score on judges score card.

Good win but it was not very easy, and I would say that there is ring rust for Anjas. Nevertheless, he dig deeper and I would say that it will be a difficult fight if ever he fights Chocolatito or Estrada as those are volume punchers and doesn't seems to be tired.

But anyway, congrats to Filipinos again for this win, they still have a world champion and to Mark Magsayo as well who knock out Pablo Cruz in the fourth round. Double win for Filipinos.

He hit Rodriguez with some good shots, but Rodriguez is just durable, he did not win by KO here but at least he won by UD which tells his boxing skills is better than Rodriguez. I'm just curious, does anyone here able to bet?

Congratulations to Jerwin Ancajas for winning the fight. It was a great fight, I didn't expect that Rodriguez would last but it's good that Ancajas won in UD.
He was kinda tired but he continue to fight and win, I think he need to strengthen his condition and improve his punching power.

I don't think that he can improved his punching power, it's already there, matter of how he executed and throw it. Whenever he throws a punch, it seems that he is unbalance that's why the power has somewhat diminished and kudos to Rodriguez, I think he has a tough chin as well.

But with regards to his condition, yeah, he gets tired in the championship round. The good thing is that he has somewhat a tougher chin that's why he didn't go down. And the knock down that he score makes the difference in the judges card.

Not the kind of win we want to expect from Ancajas we expect a knock out but at least he totally dominated the fight and he shows that he can last the whole fight, he needs a fight coming from popular and well known fighters to polished and strengthen him, if he wants to become a big attraction in the US he needs to fight rated fighters in his division.

I'm a bit disappointed, I thought he would win this fight in KO, but it's not happening, the betting odds are wrong, he has a heavy favorite and it looks like he does not have the power to KO his opponent. I'm glad there's no betting odds available in crypto betting sites because I could have loss my bet as I'm sure I'll bet on Ancajas to win by KO.

It's still a win but he needs to fight other champion in other organization, this win did not give him anything but a win, not something that will give a good impression to promoters, other champions and boxing experts, hopefully in his next match he'll give us a very impressive win, he is one of the boxers touted as the next Pacquiao.

A win is still win though despite some disappointment that Ancajas is the heavy favourite but was unable to knock out Rodriguez and the fight even goes to the judges scorecard. Lot of weaknesses is his fight here, but spite of those Rodriguez wasn't able to capitalised although he has a late charge specially on the championship rounds. But Anjacas was the better man that night on route to his 9th successful defense of his belt.

Yes, this Rodriguez is very tough and durable, Anjacas hits him flush in the jaw, but he keeps on coming. The knockdown was accumulation of punches and I thought that he will be done. But he was able to come back strong.

There's no betting for crypto sports bookies so I doubt that anyone here has put be a bet on Ancajas. But he was the favourite to win by KO and not by decision.

I thought Ancajas is going to win by a knock out here but Rodriguez just keeps on coming, great endurance on both fighters but obviously, Ancajas is the better fighter he hurt Rodriguez several times, Rodriguez is a tough fighter, this is the first knockdown of his career we can say that Rodriguez is one tough fighter, he just doesn't have the skills to match Ancajas skills.

Good win but it was not very easy, and I would say that there is ring rust for Anjas. Nevertheless, he dig deeper and I would say that it will be a difficult fight if ever he fights Chocolatito or Estrada as those are volume punchers and doesn't seems to be tired.

But anyway, congrats to Filipinos again for this win, they still have a world champion and to Mark Magsayo as well who knock out Pablo Cruz in the fourth round. Double win for Filipinos.

Haven't watched the fight but I got it downloaded to watch this week. Good thing that Filipino fighters are coming back again in the boxing scene and I am happy because recently there is a lacking in the Filipino boxing scene with Pacquiao getting old, I think it is time to find new people to bring glory to my country.

I think there's still a lot of Filipinos in the boxing scene right now, Ancajas, Casimero, Nietes. But none can have the impact that Manny Pacquiao bring not just for Filipinos all over the world, but boxing fans as well. And it's hard to find someone with Manny's talent, it's rare to see boxers come in this generation with that kind of charisma and God given talent.
