Variety And Predictability In a Rodeo Arena In San Marcos

How often can you say a fight card was practically saved by two heavyweights one is 0-2 and the fight ended with a cut in the fourth?  The trouble with pro debut's is well often they are short.  There was also the hometown hero that needs to step up but has not yet.  This card had it all.

Gilbert Vera  made quick work of David Gilardo who was making his pro debut.  The fight was under a round and within thirty desconds David was on the canvas he got up but Vera covered him like the heat that would fill the rodeo areana or the sweat that would cover our backs by the time the card was done.

From Mexico via New Braunfels Randy Gallindo hopeful Miguel Thunder Ortiz.  There was not much to see as he too stopped his opponent in the first round  he does have one loss this is a keep an eye on. 

Thou shalt not lose weight fast....thou shalt not lose weight fast.  An inside source said Kyle lost a lot of weight not so slowly for his four rounder.  It showed Jerome Adams from Dallas Texas was aggressive and kept the pressure on.  Kyle Warren landed some bombs but those bombs were about as few and far between as days of rain around here.  The fight seemed to drag in slow motion all the four rounds.

The fight was close the fight was interesting till a cut above the eye ended.  Osvaldo Martinez from San Angelo/San Antonio was at times confused by Jose Escillimma getting to the inside there were more then a few worthy exchanges it would have been close and controversial till a cut above Jose Escillima's eye ended what until that bout which proved to be exciting competive and the best fight of the night.

It started out as a blow out it ended up as a dirty blow out.  Yet in the middle there was just a little bit of adaptation to make things interesting.  James Dubois the first round acted like cat half bored with mouse in front of him.  The second and third round gosh darn it the mouse got a couple licks in while being played with by now a slightly confused cat who is beating up this mouse but the mouse just bit the paw.  The fourth round Dubois gained more authority. 

It had been a long hard ride for Ray Boom Boom Treijo but he showed he got some left.  The first round showed that we had a brawl in the bottom of the trash barrel but later with a solid body attack he in the third stopped Jose Rodriguez from alice Texas.  The fight was awkward at times competive early on and spirited. 

.There will be no action shots posted of the main event.  Memphis Fairway aka La Farrel Bunting with a fiece body attack and youth did a good job of showing everybody that Carlos Bates had no business in the ringl  It did not make it past the first and actually did not make it too far into the first. 

 

FULL DISCLOSURE NOTICE:During weighin report I drank 1 bottled Gatorade provided by fight's sponsors retail value $1.38.  I am also am employee of Busch Entertainment Corp Sea World San Antonio which is a subsidiary of Annhuiser Busch Budweiser which sponsored the event.  If sales of Annhueiser Busch products increase pressure on Sea World San Antonio decreases.  This was a tiny factor in why Miller Card this Friday was not covered in San ANtonio plus my unfamiliary with the promoter unwiling to get media credential and the desire to cover more corridor boxing isntead of San ANtoino.
