Where: Thomas & Mack Center, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
Division: welterweight (147 lbs, 66.7 kg)
Title: WBO World welterweight title
Result: Timothy Bradley def. Brandon Rios (TKO at 2:49, round 9)
フィニッシングラウンドまでほぼブラッドリーのワンサイド。
これだけスピード差があり距離をコントロールされたらそうなるでしょう。
ただやはりブラッドリーなので、パンチは当たれど倒れる気配なしといういつものパターンかと思い始めたら唐突にエンディングが訪れたのでした。
ラウンド中盤にブラッドリーがアッパーを３発アゴにクリーンヒットさせたことがターニングポイントになったのでは？
そこでクラウチングスタイルのリオスの上体が少し立ち気味になるんです。
つまり懐が少し開いた。
そこにタイミング良くボディブローが入る。
さらにリオスの上体が立つ。
というより明らかに効いた感じを露骨に出してしまう。
間髪入れずブラッドリーが懐に入ってボディを連打したらリオス脆くも崩れてしまった。
まるで倒し屋のような理詰めなブラッドリーを僕は初めて見ました。
「俺ってこんなことできるんだ！」
レフェリーが試合を止めた後すぐにブラッドリーが肩を竦めるポーズを取っているときの心境はそんな感じか（笑）
まあ打撃開眼したとは思えませんが、この試合が会心の出来であったことは確かでしょう。
ペースを取る上手さは相変わらず、しかも絶対に相手に渡しませんからね。
常に自分優位の状況を作り続ける工夫と努力には頭が下がります。
今の彼はボクサータイプとファイタータイプの良いとこ取りスタイルで、特にインファイトの上手さが目を引きます。
ビルドアップされた上半身を上手く使っているというか、
クリンチ一歩手前の半クリンチを上手く使っているというか、
自分だけやりたいことをやって相手には何もさせないというか、
クレバーっちゃクレバーなのかな。
この試合、リオスのコンディションの良し悪しに関わらずちょっと勝ち目がなかったかもね。
本日の獲物。
