I know he's doing the right thing, but I love the notion of the ref being all,"Hey now stop hitting each other! What do you think this is!?!"

We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

Parker seems to growing into this more then AJ

AJ looks like he's been hit when he hasn't, it's very odd.

At least toward the end of the round he started to let Parker work a little on the inside. Really takes away AJ's uppercut if they cant ever work inside.

why the gently caress is that ref getting in between them when they are at infighting range with both hands free? i hope he gets knocked out.

This fight is a pretty good one, so it's a shame about the ref work, especially since this fight is at it's most exciting on the inside

Joshua. Parker is doing better than he was though.

The ref is completely derailing any chance the match has to really get going, unfortunately.

Presumably he wanted to get AJ late in the fight but I don't think he's made him work enough, AJ doesn't look gassed at all.
