Just one day into the new boxing league, already 2 fights to report. First, Daniel "Golden Child" Jacobs of Hurricane CandleBox prevailed by unanimous 10-round decision over Ishe Smith. Jacobs controlled most of the fight with his handspeed and movement, but the rugged Smith had him rocked on a couple of occasions. Hurricane CandleBox moves to 1-0 and picks up points of Option A: 1, Option B: 0.5 and Option C: 15.
Just a few hours later, Juan Diaz of Death is Forming stepped into the ring against Paulie Malignaggi. While Diaz landed the harder shots, he was cut severely early in the fight and struggled with blood streaming into his left eye. For his part, Malignaggi controlled the ring for much of the fight and landed quick shots. Diaz pushed the fight and prevailed by scores of 115-113, 116-112 and 118-110 (116-113 on my card). A Fightnews poll indicated that most fans thought Malignaggi had won the fight and indeed it was close. Diaz gets Option A: 1 pt, Option B: 1 pt and Option C: 16 pts.
