凡希尔登 (23-1-1, 12 科斯), fighting out of Santa Monica, California by way of South Africa, used his 3-inch height advantage against Claggett (23-3-1, 16 科斯), the Canadian champion from Calgary, 阿尔伯塔.
Neither fighter was hurt during the fight, in which there were continual back-and-forth exchanges of stinging combinations. Claggett battled to apply pressure in order to fight on the inside, while Van Heerden fought effectively from the outside.
The two evenly-matched welterweights patiently waited for the official announcement: 95-95 和 97-93 twice for Van Heerden.
“I knew I won this fight, 120-百分, but I knew it was close,” Van Heerden commented. “We’re both winners 今晚 because of it was so close and we entertained the crowd. Me and Claggett entertained the crowd…..we delivered. I’ve been through so much and the lord helped me get this win. I look forward to a rematch, but I want to move forward.”
Undefeated California junior middleweight Neeco “公鸡” Macias (12-0, 6 科斯) had a lot to crow about in the 8-round co-feature against Limberth “El Gallito” Ponce, JR.(10-3, 8 科斯). Macias thoroughly dominated the action, firing non-stop shots from every conceivable angle. His unrelenting pressure enabled Macias, whose come-forward approach made him an instant fan favorite, to control the fight from start to finish for a unanimous decision.
“I knew he was going to be the toughest fighter I’ve fought,” 马西亚斯说. “I give Ponce much respect. We wanted to give fans a good show.”
Baltimore welterweight 马利克 “冰人” Hawkins (7-0, 6 科斯) 给 埃罗尔 “Spyda” 西德尼 (6-2-2, 2 科斯) a beating, fully displaying his arsenal of punches, hurting his gutsy opponent on several occasions. Hawkins’ aggressive style early in the fight broke-down Sidney, who was nearly finished at the end of the fourth and fifth rounds. Hawkins trapped Sidney a neutral corner at the start of the sixth round and a powerful uppercut sent Sidney down to a knee. Sidney beat referee 杰伊·纳迪‘s count but the veteran official had seen enough and he halted the bout 1:02 into the sixth.
“We’re back,” Hawkins proclaimed after the bout. I’d give myself an 8 ½ this fight.”
拉斯维加斯’ promising prospect Randy Moreno (2-0, 1 KO) outclassed Oregon junior lightweight Derek Barthemay (0-3) from the opening bell for a 4-round unanimous decision.
Flashy Las Vegas welterweight prospect Jeremy “J-Flash” Nichols (3-0, 2 科斯) constantly pounded the body of his tough Mexican opponent, 贾森 “Gibbor” Gavino (3-2, 2 科斯), for a 4-round shutout victory,
拉斯维加斯’ Sal Lopez (2-0) dropped a game 马特 “KO小子” 墨菲 (0-2), a junior lightweight from St. 圣路易斯, in the opening round on his way to an impressive one-sided win by way of a unanimous 4-round decision.
