Hogan Outworks Brunson på CBS Sports Network Night of Boxing


Foton av Jesse Kelley

Australien via Kildare, Irlands WBA #12- och IBF # 11-rankade “Orkan” Dennis Hogan (21-0-1, 7 Kos) kryssade till ett underhållande och arbetskraftigt tioomgångsbeslut över Philadelphias Tyrone “Young Gun” Brunson (22-5-1, 21 Kos) i kväll, i den viktigaste händelsen i “Championship Boxing på CBS Sports Network” på Grand Casino Hinckley i Hinckley, Minnesota.

Slåss framför en uppskattande utsåld publik, Hogan utmattade den försiktiga Brunson i majoriteten av omgångarna för att vinna med poäng på 96-94, 98-92 och 97-93 och i processen, plockade upp World Boxing Association's NABA-US Super Welterweight Championship.

Hogan stängde showen bra och tycktes skada Brunson med en serie klubbar. Men Brunson kunde överleva angreppet.

Brunson, som verkar ha förvandlats till en motstansare sedan hans dagar som kungen av KO 1 tidigare i sin karriär, hade en bra åttonde runda och tycktes skada Hogan med en höger. Han höll det intressant hela tiden genom att fånga Hogan som kom in med högra händer.

Presenterad av Greg Cohen Promotions i samarbete med Adam Wilcocks Fight Card Promotions och producerad av David Schuster's Winner Take All Productions “Championship Boxing på CBS Sports Network” var debut CBS-tv-satsning från PR-teamet.

Flera dunkande knockouts punkterade resten av nattens action.

I nattens co-main event, lätt slugger Ismael Barroso gjorde snabbt arbete av Memphis, Tennessee-veteran Ira Terry, slå ut honom inuti en runda.

Southpaw Barroso, El Tigre, Venezuela, flyttade sin post till 18-0-2, 17 KO genom att platta Terry (nu 26-14, 16 Kos) med en förödande vänster hand. Barrosos rykte verkar växa med varje skrämmande föreställning. Terry försökte flytta till vänster och vara svårfångad, men det tog bara ett skott från Barrosos cementnävar. Domare Mark Nelson började räkna när Terry gick ner, men viftade snabbt av den på 2:49.

I TV-öppnare, Sankte Pär, Minnesota, mellanvikt Prospekt Rob “Bra Gjort” Brant (15-0, 9 Kos)gjorde överraskande enkelt arbete i Miami via Colombias Dionisio Miranda (22-11-2, 19 Kos), släppa honom för hela räkningen kl 2:40 runda två.

Brant visade överlägsen snabbhet när han landade sina svängande skott utanför. En högra hand startade besväret för den normalt hållbara Miranda. Uppföljningsalvan tvingade Miranda ner och han valde, förmodligen klokt, inte att stiga. Publikens favorit Brant förblir obesegrad och har nu en KO-seger över en kvalitetsmotståndare på mittnivå i sitt CV.

I det som visade sig vara en tv-sändning, Amerikansk tungviktprospekt Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller, av Brooklyn, New York, flyttade sin imponerande rekord till 12-0-1, 10 KOs genom att slå ut Nairobi, Kenyas Raymond “King Kong” Ochieng (26-19-3, 21 Kos) vid 1:40av den allra första omgången.

Miller placerade sin tunga, exakta skott inuti de vilda svängningarna i spelet Ochieng och fångade honom med en stark kombination mot repen. Ochieng gick ner och domaren Gary Miezwa viftade av den utan att räkna, förmodligen för tidigt.

Ändå, den karismatiska Miller såg ut som en gedigen möjlighet att ta ut en användbar veteran i Ochieng, som hade gått 10 omgångar med Alexander Petkovic i sin sista strid och överlämnade 36-1 David Rodriguez och TKO 1 förlust i juli förra året.

San Antonio, Texas, super bantamvikt Adam “Smör” Lopez (11-0, 6 Kos) främjade sitt rykte som ett uppåtriktat perspektiv genom att utjämna Saint Paul, Minnesota Philip Adyaka (4-5, 2 Kos) med en monströs vänster krok vid 58 sekunder av omgång två. 24-år gamla Lopez var för stor och för kraftfull för den mindre Adyaka. Lopez imponerade, visar upp sitt vapen i världsklass medan han slår mot huvudet och kroppen, speciellt med vänster krok. Adyaka försökte modigt stiga, men snubblade tillbaka i repen och striden vinkades av.

I en sex-runda tungvikt match-up, fan favorit Joey “Minnesota Ice” Abell (30-8, 29 Kos) av närliggande Coon Rapids, Minnesota, startade sin comeback med att stoppa svävar Travis “Iron Man” Fulton (22-39-1, 21 Kos) av Cedar Falls, Iowa i tre omgångar. Ut ur ringen i mer än ett år, Southpaw Abell skakade slutligen rost och kom igenom med en volley av slag mot repen, vilket bedövade Fulton illa. Den kom kl 34 sekunder med Fulton förvirrad men står fortfarande. Jag börjar om. Jag vill få ett par vinster och förhoppningsvis få en stor kamp här,” sa Abell, post-kamp. Olyckligtvis, Abell gled besvärligt i första omgången och fick enligt uppgift en allvarlig fotskada.

I en fyromgång, all-Minneapolis super tungvikt showdown för att öppna natten, 316-lb skåpbil “Mannen” Bra man, nu 4-5-2, 4 Kos, fick en bra vinst över299-Ib Brett Murphy, nu 1-1, 1 KO via TKO 2. Murphy var nere i omgång ett och två gånger till i omgång två. En snygg vänster uppercut var slutskottet. Tiden för stoppet var 1:38.
