Marquez was reaching to throw punches to the body while Bradley was sitting back trying to counterpunch. Marquez did go upstairs with a good hook. Marquez also looked to use his own counterpunches but mostly stayed playing the lead, getting off first.
The two men did exchange in the later part of the round, Marquez landing well while Bradley lunged in and landed a headbutt that didn’t draw the attention of the referee. Bradley also landed to the body a few times and did try to engage in the flurry.
Still, Marquez led the round and did the better work in the opening frame.
