The stiff that Matt faced Friday night was about ten pounds heavier than him. He got his hands a little low in the first and took a shot to the chin that buckled his legs and got him in some trouble. Remillard shook it off and dropped Rubin to win the round. He dropped Ruben in the second with a hook and stopped it with some hard body shots and another blow to the head.

Ruben apparently had an awkward style that gave Matt quite a test along with the weight difference. He is nineteen, so there is plenty of time. I hope that he isn't rushed to another level even though he isn't having too much trouble with the opponents that he is getting at this point.
