| It was Randy's experience and game plan that overcame Gonzaga's superior physical strength and youth.
Randy initially exchanged punches with him but closed the gap with takedown attempt or clinch against the fence, then would do his "dirty boxing" to wear out Gonzaga. Then, Randy picked up Gongaza at one point and slammed him to the ground and ended up breaking Gonzaga's nose. So, he was forced to breath through his mouth, which tired him out. Randy stuck to the same game plan and was able to do more and more damage throughout the first 2 1/2 rounds. In the third round, he was able to get Gonzaga to the ground and pound him out until referee stopped the fight. Gonzaga did land some high kicks to Randy's head and got some good punches in but Randy was able to recover fast and stuck to his game plan. |
