Nice, I figure Galaxy would win without too much trouble but not this easily. I thought it would go 5 or 6 rounds at least. So only a couple more fights before Galaxy loses his first fight.

Received contract and updated fight schedule.

No problem, sometimes it is good for a promoter to remind me because once in awhile I forget to put a fighters list up. Also, sometimes it is not seen because there are a lot of lists that go up. Your fighters are on a good run right now. Hope they can keep it up as the schedule gets tougher.

Does anybody know what happened to a87star? He hasnt been around the boards very much lately. Im sure some promoters got frustrated with the interruptions that were taking place in the universe, as I was. I know that Lee is really busy with his other projects so he probably has stopped promoting here. Just wondering, because Calzaghe is a pretty high profile fighter right now, ranked in the top 10, and should have a world title shot opportunity real soon. That would be the first stable to get that shot and I am surprised that they wouldnt want to take advantage of that.

LABA Title Fight - Asociacion Mendocina de Box, Mendoza, Capital, Argentina

[Champion] Gregorio Peralta, Argentina, 18-1-0 (13) vs [LABA#1] Diego Corrales, Mexico, 10-0-0 (10)

Chico Corrales comes in as a heavy-handed slugger that is a fast rising star in the CABO region and his first punch lands and not only hurts the champ, but opens a cut over the right eye. Peralta also has major swelling around the left eye. Peralta's inactivity since winning the belt is really showing tonight as Corrales take the 2nd round, 12-2. The third round is close, 8-8, as Peralta is able to keep Corrales at a distance. Corrales continues to come forward and lands to open up the cut again, 22-4, Corrales in the 4th. Peralta is really struggling, his hands are low, swelling around the left eye and now looks fatigued, but Corrales seems to have hurt his right hand here in the 5th. The champion finally cuts off Corrales and is finally able to land some nice shots to the head and body. Corrales is cut and now both fighters are bleeding. The corners will have to earn their paychecks tonight. 10-4, Corrales in the 7th. 11-11, in the 8th. Peralta seems to be behind and really needs to start pressing the action. Peralta, 11-9 in the 9th. 13-0, Corrales in the 10th. Another big round for Chico Corrales, 17-5, in the 11th, as the belt is slipping away from Peralta. A left jab followed by a right cross puts the champion down in the 13th. Peralta is down a total of three times in the 13th but is able to get out of the round. Peralta needs a stoppage to win the fight with two rounds left. We go to the last round. Referee Alonso steps in and puts a halt to the fight with only 1:21 left in the fight. Diego Corrales is the new LABA champion.

Winner: Corrales
Result: (TKO15)(Cuts)
Cards: 136-129, 136-128, 134-129, all three cards in favor of Corrales

[15] Ezzard Charles, USA, 24-3-0 (16) vs [20] Sam Langford, Canada, 21-5-0 (20)

This is a non-title fight for Charles, his USBA belt will not be on the line tonight. The Cincinnati Cobra corners Langford and goes to the body here in the 1st round, 14-4, Charles. Round 2 is slow and a feeling out round, 4-4. Langford does some nice work, 16-2, in the 3rd. Langford is warned for hitting and holding in the 4th. Charles unloads in the 5th as Langford looks dazed, 19-6, Charles in the 5th. A straight right is the best punch of the 6th, 8-0 for Langford. A vicious combo puts Charles down. A cross puts Charles down for the second time in the 8th round. Charles is down two more times in the 9th. Langford is way ahead in the fight from the four knockdowns and Charles will have to go all out for a knockout to win this fight tonight.
