Gary Antuanne Russell (18-1, 17 KB) looked like pure gold on Saturday evening, defeating the Welter Light Welter Wba Jose ‘Rayo’ Valenzuela (14-3, 9 Kos), winning a unanimous 12-round decision surprisingly easy in their co-functionality battle in Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
The compulsory challenger Russell had no respect for the champion, the punching power of Rayo Valenzuela, and pressed him all night, landing big punches with the head and body. The advantage of Gary Antuanne’s hand speed and the advantage of punching power was a revealing factor because it allowed him to firm each time Rayo tried to throw.
The scores
119-109
119-109
120-108
The ninth round died of Valenzuela’s two eyes, and he looked mentally defeated. However, he continued to fight, catching Russell with huge shots in the championship rounds. Russell was reckless with his attacks in the 11th and 12th, entering punches which would have overturned a house.
In the last 30 seconds of the 12th, Valenzuela caught Gary Antuanne with a right hand that sent her spokesperson. He continued to hammer it with powerful straight hands with the final bell. I don’t know how Russell stayed on his feet.
