|
ROUND 1
|
Hamed keeps his hands down during the opening round, looking for a spot. Calvo denies him angles and nothing meaningful happens. Hamed does not stop Calvo in round one.
|
|
ROUND 2
|
Hamed is having his way as he rocks Calvo with an uppercut and two left hand bombs. Calvo's face is a bit swollen.
|
|
ROUND 3
|
Hamed continues to connect as Calvo continues to plod forward. Calvo has held up to the Prince's power so far.
|
|
ROUND 4
|
A Calvo combination gets the Prince's attention. Hamed fights cautiously, not many exchanges at all.
|
|
ROUND 5
|
Calvo continues move forward, while Hamed, in very unPrince-like fashion appears to be unwilling to mix it up. The crowd boos.
|
|
ROUND 6
|
More of the same until Hamed comes to life and throws a barrage of blows near round's end.
|
|
ROUND 7
|
Another slow round as the Prince and thousands of his fans looking on continue to show frustration. Hamed throws a wild punch, loses his balance and falls to the canvas.
|
|
ROUND 8
|
Neither fighter does anything as the crowd continues to boo. Very little for HBO's highlight reel through the first 2/3 of the fight.
|
|
ROUND 9
|
13 months out of the ring have clearly left Hamed very rusty. His punches continue to misfire and he is not very active by Prince-standards.
|
|
ROUND 10
|
Hamed in continues his lethargic ways. A carbon copy of previous rounds.
|
|
ROUND 11
|
The crowd continues to boo. The fighters continue to be cautious. Calvo is having no trouble taking Hamed's best punches.
|
|
ROUND 12
|
Hamed tries in vain for the knockout, but Calvo stays in there battling to the end. Hamed is comfortably ahead, but this isn't the performance he wanted.
