At round's end, Soto-Karass has Gomez on the ropes, and fires with a round-ending, four-punch combination. Soto-Karass's round, 10-9.
Round 6: Soto-Karass starts the round by boxing, then moves forward, although Gomez wins the early exchanges by being busier.

Round 1: Rowland comes out jabbing and throwing to the body. Chavez pursues from a crouch, bobbing, weaving, searching for an opening. Chavez hooks. The second Chavez hook is blocked.

Round 5: Rowland is the busier fighter early, seemingly encouraged by the previous round's success. But standing in, Rowland takes shots to the body that are more in Chavez's favor. Chavez continues to drive at Rowland's midsection, as the crowd boos at the inactivity. Chavez drills a left and a hard right to Rowland's head, and then, closes the round with the same combination. Chavez's round, 10-9
Round 6: Chavez steps up the pressure, even as Rowland continues to fire away. Chavez's left hand continues to find Rowland's head. A hard right and a left moves Rowland's body. By round's end, Chavez is simply walking through the game Rowland's offerings and pounding to the body and head. Chavez's round, 10-9
Round 7: Rowland jabs and dances away, but Chavez reaches him with a long left and a hook. Chavez is throwing the right punches, and they are slightly harder than Rowland's. Chavez doubles up on a left to the head and body. Rowland fails to take advantage of an opportunity along the ropes, missing twice. Chavez turns the tables, and delivers a right and a left. Chavez closes strong. Chavez's round, 10-9
Round 8: Chavez tries to step up the pressure, landing hard early. By mid-round, Chavez surges with a four-punch combination. Rowland shakes Chavez with a nice right hand, but doesn't follow up. Chavez goes to the body with a left, then to the head with a right. Chavez drills Rowland with a round-ending four-punch combination. Chavez's round, 10-9
Round 9: Chavez begins the first part of the round on his toes, boxing. Rowland follows, but there is no significant intensity with his attack at that point. Soon, Chavez is back in his chest. But the round turns when, along the ropes, Chavez takes a hard right cross. Encourged, Rowland stands, fights, and wins the closing exchange. Rowland's round, 10-9
Round 10: Encouraged, Rowland comes forward throughout the final round. Pressing forward, Rowland matches Chavez, even backing him up for a significant portion of the round. Rowland's courage wins the crowd, and the round. Rowland's round, 10-9
FanHouse scored it 97-93, for Chavez

I think this will be a good fight and surely a Filipino packman will dominate the whole fight and probably will knock out Cotto in the early rounds. Cotto must not under estimate the punching power of Manny as he promised at 24/7 a 150% victory over Pacman.

I look forward to seeing this fight. But $60 is too expensive! I can't make a prediction until after the second round.
