It must be the worst robbery I’ve ever seen. Roach educated the tank from A to B, making him look like an amateur tonight, opposing him at every opportunity. When things looked gloomy for Davis in the championship round, he resorted to cheating, hitting Roach on the back, wound and throwing low blows.

Tank Davis: 103 of 279 for a 37% connection rate
Lamont Roach: 112 out of 400 for 28%
I never saw someone take his knee and didn’t count him like demolished. Must forget the rules for tonight.
