Round 1: Antora Takes Early Control

Antora opened the bout looking sharp and confident. She snapped quick jabs and clean hooks that caught Tanjila off-guard. Using excellent footwork and angles, she dominated the pace, clearly winning the opening frame.

Round 2: Tanjila Responds with Grit

The second round saw a shift in tempo. Tanjila began cutting the ring more effectively, trapping Antora against the ropes. She started digging powerful body shots that visibly slowed her opponent. Though Antora landed more punches, Tanjila’s shots were heavier and more impactful.

Round 3: Momentum Balancing

By the third round, the tide was even. Tanjila’s pressure and stamina began to wear Antora down. The crowd sensed a change. Antora, usually agile, was now backing up more often, absorbing punishment to the midsection. Tanjila’s hooks began finding their home.

Round 4: Tanjila Dominates

This round was all Tanjila. She controlled the center of the ring, forced exchanges, and punished Antora with left-right body-head combos. Antora looked winded and slower, her earlier rhythm disrupted. Tanjila’s relentless attack gave her a clear edge in this round.

Round 5: Antora Fights Back

Despite fatigue, Antora showed heart. She came out with a burst of energy, landing several clean shots and circling to avoid being pinned. Though not as dominant, she landed more than in the previous rounds, making it a close call for the judges.

Round 6: Final Surge from Tanjila

Knowing the fight was close, Tanjila left it all in the ring. She poured on the pressure, landing thudding hooks and uppercuts. Antora, tired and bruised, did her best to defend but couldn’t keep up. The round — and likely the fight — belonged to Tanjila.
