In the main event, super welterweight, Paul “The Truth” Delgado (23-9-1 4KO) toughed out a dominating performance over Tim “The Boss” Hall (5-8 4KO).
In the first round Hall was determined to pressure the slick boxing style of Delgado by moving forward at all cost. Catching up to Delgado and pinning him against the ropes, Hall unleashed an onslaught of punches. Delgado was content with sitting on the ropes allowing Hall to pepper him, but with about a minute left in the round he defused Hall’s efforts by brilliantly landing sharp combinations.
In the second stanza, Delgado kept the momentum going by boxing while moving backwards. At this point in the fight, Hall was not deterred and stuck to his game plan of pressuring Delgado with hopes that he would eventually fold. Halfway through the round Delgado landed a questionable low blow that dropped Hall to the canvas. Referee Jim Korb immediately stepped in and allowed Hall to recover followed by warning Delgado to watch his punches. Once the action continued the combatants slugged it out ending in a savage left hook to the head by Delgado.
Resulting to what he’s known for best, Delgado came out in the third boxing masterfully. Using angles and fancy footwork he began to frustrate Hall. To his credit, Hall did not back down and attempted to land shots that he hoped would turn the tide. Unfortunately for him, Delgado was simply too skilled to be baited into fighting out of his style.
The mounting frustration experienced by Hall culminated in a foul filled fourth round. After cutting Hall with an overhand right to his left eye, Delgado attempted to land a left uppercut to the midsection that was about six inches south of his original target. With another low blow, Hall winced in pain and hit the canvas on all fours. Utilizing just about the full 5 minute recovery period, possibly looking for a breather, he managed to get back to his feat. Jim Korb once again warned Delgado that another low blow will cost him a point. When they resumed Delgado continued doing well by controlling the action. Fed up with his inability to catch Delgado and with the two low blows Hall took matters into his own hands and retaliated by landing an obviously intentional low blow. It was Delgado’s turn to wince and recover; which he did.
In the fifth Delgado’s body attack was finally too much for Hall to bear as a left hook to the body dropped Hall. Hall rose to his feet, but any hopes of turning the tide had diminished as Delgado simply picked him apart.
Realizing that he was clearly ahead on the scorecards, Delgado flashed brilliant boxing in the sixth and final round to seal the deal. Scorecards read 59-53, 60-53 twice.
