Good fight with a champion pretty aggressive who totally dominated the bout right away from the beginning. I was almost just a one side fight only. Richie in spite of his hands speed wasn’t contest at all for Cuadras, a technical sound boxer. who was able to find all the openings available to connect his punches overcoming quite easily the fact he was fighting against to a southpaw rival.
