Jeff Fenech 71-15-3 (46) vs Sammy Goss 12-6-2 (2)

Jeff pushed Goss to the ropes for the majority of the fight and he landed nasty body shots and hooks and uppercuts to the head to wear down Sammy until he floored him in round five with a combo and forced the stoppage later in the round.


Juan LaPorte 32-7-3 (15) vs Kuniaki Shibata 13-6-1 (5)

Shibata fired off combinations and moved out of Laporte's way with the exception of the sixth round when Juan rocked him twice with thunderous right hands. The Japanese fighter regained his composure and finished strong to record an impressive UD. 98-92 x2 & 97-93


Hyun-Chi Kim 11-9 (4) vs Johnny De la Rosa 13-6-1 (9)

The Asian contingency continued to impress as Kim, representing South Korea, put a beat down on Johnny, badly swelling both of his eyes from combinations and turning out his lights with an uppercut in round eight.


Auburn Copeland 13-5-2 (3) vs Wilfredo Gomez 78-13-1 (61)

Copeland opened a cut over Gomez' right eye in the third round and it bled throughout the bout. While Auburn seemed to have control in most rounds, 'Bazooka' did hurt him in the seventh and ninth rounds with right hands and that propelled Wilfredo to the controversial MD. 96-95 x2 & 97-97


Frankie Baltazar 15-4-1 (8) vs Cassius Baloyi 14-5-1 (5)

Frankie put forth a dominant effort, pasting Baloyi with combinations to the head and body until he dropped Cassius three times in round eight for an automatic stoppage.


Mike Ballerino 13-6-1 (2) vs Leonel Hernandez 13-6-1 (6)

Hernandez put Mike away early in round two with a vicious combo flush on the chin.


Jesse James Leija 38-19-3 (16) vs Humberto Soto 53-25-4 (27)

Soto opened a cut over Leija's left eye in round one and he got the best of some heavy exchanges over the first three rounds. In the fourth and fifth Jesse stormed back and he buckled Humberto's legs with a right hand in round five. Soto floored Leija with a counter hook in round six and after they traded evenly down the stretch that knockdown provided Soto with his slim margin of victory, 96-93 & 95-94 x2


Gabriel Ruelas 12-7-1 (6) vs Yong-Soo Choi 13-5-2 (3)

Choi's stiff jab and occasional crosses had Gabe's face a mess after only three rounds, both eyes swelling and a nasty gash on his forehead, but Ruelas began to score with powerful right hands and hooks and he had all of the momentum when a violent hook crashed into Choi's chin and put him down for the count in round eight.
