Bantamweights Second Round
Mbulelo Botile 13-7-1 (8) vs (IBO) Noel Wilders 15-5-1 (5)
Wilders was a decided underdog, but his spoiling style frustrated Botile as Noel took an early lead. As the fight progressed and Wilders slowed down, Botile began to catch him with right hands to the head and body and he closed very strong to earn the UD. 116-112, 116-113 & 115-114
(WBC) Toshiaki Nishioka 48-9-4 (20) vs Alphonse Halimi 13-7-1 (6)
The Frenchman was surprisingly dominant, peppering the champion with clean one-twos that brought swelling to both of his eyes and Halimi took the UD with a masterful Boxing display. 118-109 x2 & 116-111
Wladimir Sidorenko 11-9-1 (1) vs Johnny Buff 32-5-6 (11)
Buff used his educated jab to bust open Sidorenko's lip and swell up his right eye on the way to a dull, but, unanimous decision. 117-113 x3
Young Tommy 19-2 (6) vs Daniel Zaragoza 33-7-1 (19)
Tommy dropped Daniel late in round one with a counter hook and opened a gash under his right eye in round two. Several momentum swings occurred from there including the Mouse dominating the final three rounds with punishing left hands that nearly closed Tommy's right eye and the judges came up with the first draw of round two. 114-112, 111-115 & 113-113
Hogan Bassey 33-5-3 (14) vs Fernando Montiel 59-11-1 (37)
After decidedly losing the first two rounds, Montiel began to crank up his powerful hooks and Bassey had severe swelling around his right eye heading into the sixth round. Fernando opened that stanza with a nasty three punch combo and hammered Hogan until the referee had seen enough and called a halt.
Junior Jones 36-3-2 (24) vs Yonnhy Perez 17-4 (9)
This highly anticipated bout turned into a massacre as Junior Jones showed off his offensive prowess and Perez exhibited a ridiculous chin. By the end of round three, Yonnhy already had a severely swollen left eye and Junior continued to batter him, well past a point where the ref should have allowed it, until he finally floored him late in round nine with a right hand and finished the job in the tenth with yet another barrage of blows.
Louis Galvani 17-3-1 (7) vs Cristian Mijares 29-9-4 (3)
Galvani opened a cut over Mijares right eye with a right hand early in the opening stanza. While the action was competitive, the blood flow never ceased and after it worsened in round four Galvani was awarded the TKO victory.
Thanomchit Sukothai 16-3-2 (6) vs Little Dado 31-10-2 (11)
Sukothai's right hand was the decisive blow in this contest. Dado had moments where he dazzled with speedy combinations, but eventually powerful right hands slowed his roll; especially in round eleven when Thanomchit brutalized him for three minutes, including a late knockdown in a ridiculously one sided round(41-3). All that was enough for Sukothai to take the UD. 118-110, 117-111 & 116-111
