Aston Palicte (R) won a 10-round split decision over “Lil”” Oscar Cantu
LAS VEGAS (Desanm 17, 2016) – Tonight’s final round of the 2016 “Knockout Night at the D” series ended in typical style as “Mighty” Aston Palicte won a 10-round split decision over previously undefeated “Lil'” Oscar Cantu in a terrific super flyweight match from start to finish inside the Downtown Las Vegas Evènman Sant indoor facility.
Nan “Knockout Night at the D” seri, presented by D Las Vegas laand Down town Las Vegas Events Center, was promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Pwomosyon boksè. This evening’s seventh and final “Knockout at the D” event in 2016 aired live on CBS Espò Network and streamed worldwide on FloBoxing.tv
The Palicte vs. Cantu main event, as expected, was a classic match-up of contrasting styles between a dangerous puncher (Palicte) and consummate boxer (Cantu). There was surprising non-stop action from the opening bell. Power punching Palicte (22-2, 18 Ko) pressed the action as the clear aggressor, but Cantu stood in the pocket, twò, as the technician used his defensive skills to make things difficult for his world rated Filipino opponent.
Alafen, it all came down to the 10th wonn, which Palicte swept on all three judges’ scorecards for a hard-fought split decision victory by scores of 98-92, 96-94, 94-96. Palicte, rated Pa gen. 11 by the International Boxing Federation (IBF) ak Pa gen. 15 pa Boksè mondyal la Òganizasyon (WBO), took Cantu’s North American Boxing Federation (NABF) title belt in addition to capturing the vacant WBO Inter-Continental strap.
Cantu, ki se rated Se pa. 4 as a flyweight by the World Boxing Council (WBC), showed tremendous heart, granite chin and the ability to move extremely well, throwing punches from every conceivable angle. The difference, sepandan, proved to be Palicte’s slugging ability in this classic confrontation in which the puncher barely prevailed against the boxer.
Nan ko-karakteristik nan, Jamaican junior middleweight Nathaniel “No Problem” Gallimore(16-1-1, 13 Ko) scored a spectacular first-round knockout of previously unbeaten Angelo “Bombardero” Baez (15-1-1, 11 Ko), the Chilean junior middleweight champion.
Gallimore hurt Baez midway through the opening round and then closed the show with vicious left to the liver that dropped Baez to his knees. In obvious pain, he was unable to get to his feet before the 10 konte.
Galiimore (pictured above in green), who fights out of Chicago, dedicated the fight to his stablemate, an reta nan Ed Brown (20-0), who was murdered earlier this month. “I saw a tape of him (Baez) and knew he backed up to the ropes,” Gallimore explained the finish. “I practiced that shot in the gym and I’m very happy with the outcome. I told all my teammates back in Chicago that I was dedicating this fight to Ed Brown.”
Los Angeles junior middleweight Flavio Rodriguez (6-0, 5 Ko) kept his undefeated record intact against previously unbeaten Mexican fighter Dilan “El Tremendo” Loza(5-1, 3 Ko) in the television opener. Rodriguez, who one point during his 4 1/2-year hiatus from the ring weighed 90 pounds more than he entered the ring tonight, won by way of a third-round technical knockout. Loza was hurt by an accidental shot to the base of his head in the third and he was later dropped in the same round by the heavy-handed Rodriguez. Abit Jay Nady halted the bout after the third round.

“Pou pati ki pi,” Rodriguez said, “he didn’t do anything different. I thought I controlled the fight with my jab. My boy, Lion (Santa Cruz, friends from LA), was a world champion and I want to get to his level.”
In a battle of unbeaten welterweight prospects, peyi pi renmen Jeremy “J-Flash” Nichols (7-0-1, 2 Ko) and San Diego’s Kevin “KO” Ottley (3-0-1) fought to a 6-round draw.

RJJ-promoted fighters, junior lightweight Randy “Matador nan” Moreno (8-0, 7 Ko) ak bantamweight Max “The Baby-Faced Assassin” Ornelas (7-0, 3 Ko), were both successfully showcased on the undercard.
Fast moving Moreno won his eighth fight in nine months, kanpe “Lajan” Mike Fowler (5-4, 2 Ko) nan wonn nan katriyèm. Moreno improves each fight, showing incredible poise for a 21-year old boxer, and he legitimately rates as a national prospect to watch.

Ornelas dropped Jorge Perez (6-5-1, 3 Ko) in the second round on his way to a shutout decision over four rounds. The 18-year-old Ornelas recorded the seventh win of his 6-month pro career.

Cantu vs. Palicte will be contested for two belts as Cantu defends his North American Boxing Federation (NABF) super flyweight championship, in addition to the vacant World Boxing Organization (WBO) Inter-Continental super flyweight title.
Rated No. 4 pa Boksè mondyal la Konsèy la (WBC) as a flyweight, the 25-year-old Cantu (14-0, 1 KO) will face the toughest test of his 4+-years professional career in the heavy-handed Palcite, but he’s excited to be headlining this nationally televised show from Las Vegas.
“I feel honored to be headlining a card in Las Vegas,” the Texan said. “The opportunity is what every boxer wants because Vegas is the biggest boxing hum in the United States and it has produced great champions in the past. I want to thank Roy Jones Jr. Boxing Promotions for this opportunity.
“A victory can help me open doors to the world title and allow me the show everybody what I stand for, which is being God’s humble champion. The outcome of this fight will come down to who wants to win more. I’m sure that adjustments will need to be made throughout the fight. Nenpòt fason, I am well prepared to get this victory.”
Palicte (21-2, 18 Ko) is a dangerous Filipino fighter who is world rated at No. 11 by the International Boxing Federation (IBF) ak Pa gen. 15 pa WBO la. Now training in Los Angeles, Palicte is looking forward to making his American debut Dec. 17.
“Mwen vrèman eksite,” he remarked. “I’ve been training o hard, pushing myself to the limit, because I also want to excel as much as the other Filipino fighters. I am grateful for this opportunity to fight in the main event. Knowing he is undefeated, this is going to be an exciting, challenging fight.
“I’ve always dreamed of fighting for the world title and I’m taking things one step at a time. Through my promoter, RJJ, it was mentioned that there’s a big possibility for a world title challenge in 2017 if I win this fight. I’ve fought some quality fighters and I think I can do what I want in the ring, though I won’t say it’s going to be easy to control the fight.”
Styles made fights and a classic match-up between a consummate boxer (Cantu) and powerful puncher (Palicte) guarantees an intriguing fight that should be highly entertaining and incredibly competitive. Both fighters also respect each other.
“Palicte brings an impressive record and a lot of experience,” Cantu noted. “The road to a world title is a tough one, which means no easy opponents. I am really excited about this challenge. This is a classic fight because of our styles and I am sure we won’t let the viewing public down. I am ready to become the next great American champion in this weight class.”
“Cantu is a smart boxer,” Palicte added. “I’d compare him to Ismael Garnica, who I fought in our Showdown at Sands in Macau. (Palicte won by way of a seventh-round TKO.) Li (Cantu) is kind of a runner, twò, always moving around the ring, but we can never tell one’s ability until we’ve fought.
“Sa a se pral yo dwe yon batay enteresan. I’m really looking forward to getting a hold of those belts. Cantu is also a good boxer but with my experience and power, I think I have much more advantages than him. I know he’s also doing his best training, konsa, it’s going to be a really good fight come December 17th.”
