TESORO OUT TO ACE THE OPPOSITION
Jestine "the Aceman" Tesoro and Palawan's Lorence Rosas contested perhaps the closest match of the day at TIGER 2O22 UKC, and it was a tribute to both fighters to keep it a chess match till the final bell.
Southpaw Rosas began the bout extremely well, and was a convincing round one winner. His angles and head movement gave Tesoro big problems again in round two, but late in the round, clever adjustments by the Aceman made it anybody's round. It was clear by the third, that 22 year old Tesoro had solved the Rosas puzzle, and they were big winning rounds for the young fighter.
So now Rosas was the one having problems, trying to manage the height and reach advantage of his rival. But round five, the Pride of Palawan showed his ring acumen, landing some great shots to charge back into the contest.
The final round was up for grabs, and whilst both boxers got a little ragged, it's fair to say Tesoro did a sufficient job to stick and move to pinch the contest.
This was a really interesting bout, and a great result for a fast improving Tesoro. Lorence Rosas has skills and experience, and can be an awkward fight for anybody. Just ask Mike Plania !
Really good signs here for Lorence Rosas, and for the Aceman, looking forward to seeing what he can produce in coming fights.
