Fans were eagerly waiting for this boxing event since it was booked. Interestingly, the fighters on the card did not disappoint them. Before the social media personality gathers himself for the ring walk, an 18-year-old ‘Most Valuable Promotions’ fighter set the rhythm.
Dressed in a Minion costume, Sylve came up as a heavy favorite. However, fans were expecting some fireworks for a few rounds as Rodriguez has been in this professional field for a longer duration of time.
Sylve started slowly as the bell echoed in the Gila River Arena in Arizona, but it did not take him long to dominate his opponent. He jabbed a few times and when Rodriguez pressed toward him; he launched a lightning left hook, and the fight came to an abrupt end. Following that shot, Rodriguez could not gather himself.
