CARSON, Calif. (ເດືອນເມສາ 18, 2015) – Confident and determined, Andrzej “The Polishນາ” Fonfara (27-3, 16 KOs) spoiled the ring return of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (48-2-1, 32 KOs) in resounding fashion ວັນເສົາ ໃນຕອນກາງຄືນ, flooring the former middleweight champion one time en route to a one-sided ninth-round TKO in the main event ofເວລາສາຍ championship ມວຍ ດໍາລົງຊີວິດ ເວລາສາຍ.
Fonfara, of Chicago by way of Radon, ໂປແລນ, dropped Chavez, of Culiacan, Sinaloa, ເມັກຊິໂກ, with a wide left hook 50 seconds into the ninth round before a boisterous crowd of 8,636 predominately-Chavez fans at StubHub Center. It was the first time in 52 professional fights that Chavez had hit the canvas from a punch.
Upon returning to the corner, Chavez could be heard on the telecast telling trainer Joe Goossens that he had hurt his right leg and could no longer continue. ປັດຈຸບັນຕໍ່ມາ, the fight was halted. The busier and more accurate fighter throughout, Fonfara was comfortably ahead on the three judges’ scorecards by scored of 89-80 ແລະ 88-81 twice after nine full rounds.
Offered an ecstatic Fonfara, who had his fair share of Polish fans at the venue: “I knew he was a tough fighter, quick and in good shape but when he hit me for the first time in the first round, I knew I was going to win this fight. He didn’t punch as hard as everybody said he did.
“I saw his punches easily coming in. I know I threw more punches. I was a little surprised that he did not come out for the (10th) but he was cut, had been getting beat up and had just got knocked down, so he knew what would happen if he came out.
“Chavez said before the fight that he didn’t think I could take his body punches. I think I took them pretty good and passed that test.
“I know there are things I can still work on in training to become a more complete boxer, ແຕ່tonight was a dream come true. I want a rematch with (Light Heavyweight World Champion) Adonis Stevenson.
Said Chavez, the son of legendary Mexican icon, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. in the ring afterward and before he was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure, “Maybe 170,172 pounds is too big for me, maybe I’ll go back down. I’m not sure what my future holds. It was a very tough fight. But I congratulate Andrzej.”
Goossen told reporters afterward that he had “stopped the fight. It was my decision. I didn’t like what I saw. ”

“My combinations were effective the whole night, we stuck to our gameplan and came out victorious,” said Imam. “I want any of the world champions next”.
Castle, who saw a nine-fight winning streak come to an end, ກ່າວວ່າ “I thought I won the fight. I didn’t get credit for the punches I threw. The judge who scored it 100-90; ດີ, that gives me no chance to win here. The cut bothered me in the early rounds, but was not a factor after.”
ກ່ອນຫນ້ານັ້ນ ວັນເສົາ, on SHOWTIME EXTREME, undefeated Moises “ໂຊກ” ດອກໄມ້ (23-0, 16 KOs), ຂອງ Guadalajara, ເມັກຊິໂກ, captured the WBA Super Bantamweight Interim World Championship with a thrilling 12-round split decision over defending champion Oscar Escandon (24-2 16 KOs), ຂອງ Tolima, Colombia.

An emotional Flores was near tears afterward. “ນີ້ແມ່ນຄວາມຝັນມາທີ່ແທ້ຈິງ – more than a dream come true – for me,” ເຂົາເວົ້າວ່າ. “I saw my family on the beach, eating meat. I saw my babies better dressed. For me this is a life-changing victory and, ແມ່ນແລ້ວ, I thought it was very, very close but I absolutely feel I won.
“I want to fight the best next, the top guys at 122 pounds and right now the top guy is Leo Santa Cruz. That’s who I’d like to fight next. I really want to thank all my team, from top to bottom, for giving me this wonderful opportunity. We’re very happy that we joined the Al Haymon team. We’re very loyal and we just really appreciate everything they’ve done for us.”
Escandon felt he’d done enough to win despite injuring the right index finger on his right hand in the seventh round.
“I did all that I could, everything was in my reach, but I think I broke or fractured my finger,” ເຂົາເວົ້າວ່າ. “In boxing things happen that are out of your control. Because I hurt my hand, I couldn’t throw punches the way I wanted to with my right hand. I tried to do all I could with it. But I didn’t want to injure it further. I’m OK, but I definitely would love a rematch.”
