Նոյեմբերի 21, 2015, Cotto cemented his status as one of the biggest pay-per-view draws among active fighters in his much anticipated mega-fight against Mexico’s Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, despite going the distance for a twelve-round unanimous decision loss. The hard-fought bout has been dubbed as the biggest fight in the history of the famed Puerto Rico vs. Mexico boxing rivalry. The Five-Time World Champion is eager to return to the ring against James Kirkland on Փետրվար 25.
A Texas titan, representing the city of Austin, 32-year-old southpaw James “Mandingo Warrior” Kirkland (32-2, 28 Նոկաուտով) has built his reputation with explosive power.

Kirkland has defeated Brian Vera, Alfredo “Perro” Angulo and Carlos “King” Molina and handed Glen “Jersey Boy” Tapia his first professional loss by way of a punishing sixth round technical knockout, prior to taking the stage for a 12-round super welterweight war with Saul “Canelo” Alvarez on May 9, 2015 at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Տեխաս.

LAS VEGAS (Դեկտեմբեր 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 Կենտրոն Las Vegas Events կենտրոն indoor facility.
The “Knockout Night at the D” շարք, presented by որ D Las Vegasand Down town Las Vegas Events Center, was promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions. This evening’s seventh and final “Knockout at the D” event in 2016 aired live on CBS Sports 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 Նոկաուտով) pressed the action as the clear aggressor, but Cantu stood in the pocket, էլ, as the technician used his defensive skills to make things difficult for his world rated Filipino opponent.
Վերջ ի վերջո, it all came down to the 10րդ կլոր, 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, գնահատվել Ոչ. 11 by the International Boxing Federation (IBF) եւ ոչ. 15 Համաշխարհային բռնցքամարտի կազմակերպության (WBO վարկածով), took Cantu’s North American Boxing Federation (NABF) title belt in addition to capturing the vacant WBO Inter-Continental strap.
Cantu, ով գնահատվել ոչ. 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, սակայն, proved to be Palicte’s slugging ability in this classic confrontation in which the puncher barely prevailed against the boxer.
Ի co-հնարավորությունը, Jamaican junior middleweight Nathaniel “No Problem” Gallimore(16-1-1, 13 Նոկաուտով) scored a spectacular first-round knockout of previously unbeaten Angelo “Bombardero” Baez (15-1-1, 11 Նոկաուտով), 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 հաշվել.
 Galiimore (pictured above in green), who fights out of Chicago, dedicated the fight to his stablemate, ուշ 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 Նոկաուտով) kept his undefeated record intact against previously unbeaten Mexican fighter Dilan “El Tremendo” Loza(5-1, 3 Նոկաուտով) 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. Մրցավար Jay Nady halted the bout after the third round.

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

Fast moving Moreno won his eighth fight in nine months, ատամնալից “Փող” Mike Fowler (5-4, 2 Նոկաուտով) չորրորդ փուլում. Moreno improves each fight, showing incredible poise for a 21-year old boxer, and he legitimately rates as a national prospect to watch.

ADAM LOPEZ VS. DANNY ROMAN – 10 Rounds, Super Bantamweights
Lopez, Սան Անտոնիո, Տեխաս, by way Phoenix, Ariz., is a prototypical Shobox prospect-turned-contender. Նա 3-0-1 on the series, having defeated three previous unbeaten boxers on the series: Mario Muniz (11-0) in a hard-fought 10-round decision on Feb. 19, 2016, outpointing Eliezer Acquino (17-0-1) across 10 rounds on July 17, 2015, and knocking out Պաբլո Cruz (11-0) in the second round on March 13, 2015. Իր վերջին ShoBox զբոսանք, Lopez boxed a 12-round draw with Roman Reynoso(18-1-1) թվականի հուլիսի 22, 2016.
“This will be my toughest fight. It is all about levels and progressing,’’ Lopez said of the matchup between the 26-year-old world-ranked contenders. “This may be my lastShoBox fight so I want to save the best for the last.
“Roman is very good fighter and I’m ready for a tough fight. He’s progressed a lot. He’s a good puncher, counter puncher and works the body. But I’m ready for whatever he brings. A win would be huge — it puts me in contention to fight a world champion.’’
An excellent boxer-puncher and tactician that likes to counter, Lopez was a standout amateur before going pro in February 2012. He is coming off an eighth-round knockout over Carlos Valcarcel նոյեմբերի. 11, 2016, and is facing likely his toughest test to date in Lopez.
Roman has won 13 in a row dating to March 2014 – and none of the fights have been close. Նա գնաց 4-0 մեջ 2014, 6-0 մեջ 2015 իսկ 4-0 մեջ 2016. The Los Angeles native, who is coming of an eight-round decision over previously unbeaten Marlon Olea (12-0) անցյալ Nov. 18, կկազմի իր ShoBox and East Coast debut in just his second outing outside of Southern California.
“I’ve been extremely active over the last few years and now all the hard work is starting to pay off,’’ said Roman, a pro since October 2009. “This is a tremendous opportunity and the type of fight I’ve been preparing for. Adam Lopez is a great fighter, and he’s highly ranked just like me. We are going to give the fans an exciting fight.
“I can box, I can brawl. I give the fans what they want. I think people are going to be impressed with how I fight. People want to see a fight and I know I’m going to bring it. Boxing fans are going to know who Danny Roman is on Jan. 20.''
RONALD ELLIS VS. CHRISTOPHER BROOKER, 8 Rounds, Super Middleweights
Ellis, Հյուրատետր Lynn, Mass., and Brooker, Ֆիլադելֆիայում, are making their second ShoBox սկսվում է. Like Lopez, they fought Feb. 19, 2016, է Atlantic City. Ellis boxed an entertaining eight-round majority draw in a slugfest with hard-hitting Jerry Odom; Brooker took an eight-round majority decision over previously unbeaten Ջոն Մագդա(11-0) in a match that was originally announced a split draw but was later changed to a majority decision win for Brooker.
This will be Ellis’ second fight since the Odom fight. The 27-year-old Ellis, the older brother of welterweight prospect Ռաշիդը Ellis, outpointed Օսկար Ռիոժաս across eight rounds on Dec. 10.
Ellis feels he’s benefited from going the distance in consecutive contests. “It’s helped me that I’ve gone through it before,’’ said Ellis, whose 10 knockouts have come inside two rounds (eight in the first). «Հիմա, I know what they’re looking for. This time I’ll finish super strong and put on a show. I need this to further my career and put me in main event fights.
“I’ve seen Brooker fight a few times. He’s a tough guy who comes forward and comes to fight, and that is perfect for me. Brooker will be there for me to hit, and it will give me a great opportunity to showcase my talents.’’
Որպես սիրողական, Ellis upset Terrell Gausha to win the 2010 Ազգային Ոսկե Ձեռնոցներ. Gausha went on to represent the United States at the 2012 Olympic Games and is now an undefeated professional middleweight.
Brooker, a physically strong, aggressive-minded boxer-puncher, is trying to regain his winning ways after a nine-fight winning streak ended when he lost by 10րդ-round TKO to highly regarded Ronald Gavril (16-1) անցյալ Oct. 8 Լաս Վեգասում. The 25-year-old Brooker dropped Gavril in the fifth round but went down twice in the 10րդ before it was stopped at 2:04. Entering the 10րդ եւ վերջնական փուլը, the fight was even on the judges’ scorecards.
“I’m ready and excited to get back in the ring,’’ said Brooker. “I can’t wait to fight another undefeated fighter on ShoBox. I’m still looking to get to the next level. I was at Ellis’ last fight, and I saw an average fighter compared to the guys I’ve fought. He’s solid, throws nice, short punches but runs out of gas.
“In my last fight I lost because I kept looking for the KO. I have a new trainer now (Gaunch Muhammad), and I’m getting back to the technical part of boxing. I’m jabbing more, and in my previous camps I wasn’t jabbing or boxing enough. I have the heart and condition but I have to get to my opponent with the jab.’’
The Philadelphia native was a top level amateur who has been active since turning professional in 2015.
KENNETH SIMS JR. VS. WELLINGTON ROMERO – 8 Rounds, Super Lightweights
