LAS VEGAS (Junio 26, 2017) — Fresh off his sensational stoppage of previously undefeated Jose “Mexican Diablo” Rodríguez, 2016 medallista de bronce olímpico Nico Hernandez is riding the fast track to stardom on an exciting journey that’s just really started. In the June 17º “KO Noche de Boxeo: Fuego rápido” evento principal, which aired live on CBS Sports Network from Hartman Arena in Park City, Kansas, Hernandez improved his record to 2-0 (2 KOs), dropping Rodriguez three times and closing the show in the third round..
The 21-year-old Hernandez, luchando fuera de Wichita, is already proving to be a better professional boxer that he was an amateur, despite all his accomplishments and achievements in the non-paying ranks, firing effective combinations from a wide variety of angles, including punishing body shots and devastating, powerful punches to his opponent’s head.
Because Hernandez fights in the featherweight division, which is void of overwhelming talent and lacks top-notch Americans, along with his amateur pedigree and experience fighting boxers with different styles, Hernandez can likely crack the world ratings this year, possibily getting a world title shot in 2018.
“I did my thing tonight,” Hernandez said after his June 17º lucha. “I’ve fought the best at the Olympics, so I wasn’t worried about what he (Rodríguez) lo hizo. This fight was a little personal because he’d said he was knocking me out. I got tired of him and went into the ring trying to take him out. We can be friends now.
“I just need to stay on path and I will. I’ve been on the top since I started boxing when I was nine. I want to do what other Olympians like (Otro) Sala y (Vasyl) Lomanchenko have done…become world champion!”
The highest-rated flyweight in the world today is 36-year-old Brian Viloria (37-5, 22 KOs), the 4-time, 2-division world champion and 2000 U.S. Olímpico. Considering his advanced age for a boxer, la “Hawaian Punch” will probably be retired by the time Hernandez is ready for a world title shot, leaving Oscar Cantu y Miguel Cartagena as the only American featherweights currently rated among the top 25 en el mundo.
“Nico was great in his last fight and everybody is seeing what we want to do with him,” Hernadez’ promotor John Andersen (KO Noche de Boxeo) conocido. “We need to step up the competition for him in his next fight, which will probably be his last six-round bout. Our plan is one more six and then an eight-rounder for the vacant World Boxing Council (CMB) International Youth featherweight title. But Nico has options because he can easily drop down to junior flyweight or move up to super flyweight. We’ll take things fight-by-fight with him with an eye on the immediate future for a world title fight.”
The featherweight division, ahora mismo, is led by a pair of stars, Kazuto Ioka, de Japón, y filipinos Donnie Nietes. The future of lower weight-classes may very well belong to Nico Hernandez.

LAS VEGAS (Diciembre 17, 2016) – Tonight’s final round of the 2016 “Knockout Night at the D” series ended in typical style as “Poderoso” 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 El centro de Las Vegas Events Center indoor facility.
La “Knockout Night at the D” serie, presentado por the D Las Vegasand Down town Las Vegas Events Center, was promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (JJR) Promociones de boxeo. This evening’s seventh and final “Knockout at the D” event in 2016 emitido en directo por 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 KOs) pressed the action as the clear aggressor, but Cantu stood in the pocket, demasiado, as the technician used his defensive skills to make things difficult for his world rated Filipino opponent.
Por último, it all came down to the 10º ronda, 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, Sin clasificar. 11 por la Federación Internacional de Boxeo (FIB) y n. 15 por la Organización Mundial de Boxeo (OMB), took Cantu’s North American Boxing Federation (NABF) title belt in addition to capturing the vacant WBO Inter-Continental strap.
Cantu, que está puntuar Sin. 4 as a flyweight by the World Boxing Council (CMB), showed tremendous heart, granite chin and the ability to move extremely well, lanzando golpes desde todos los ángulos imaginables. The difference, sin embargo, proved to be Palicte’s slugging ability in this classic confrontation in which the puncher barely prevailed against the boxer.
En la pelea co-estelar, Jamaican junior middleweight Nathaniel “No Problem” Gallimore(16-1-1, 13 KOs) scored a spectacular first-round knockout of previously unbeaten Angelo “Bombardero” Baez (15-1-1, 11 KOs), 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 contar.
Galiimore (pictured above in green), who fights out of Chicago, dedicated the fight to his stablemate, la tarde 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 KOs) kept his undefeated record intact against previously unbeaten Mexican fighter Dilan “El Tremendo” Loza(5-1, 3 KOs) in the television opener. Rodríguez, 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. Árbitro Jay Nady halted the bout after the third round.

“En la mayor parte,” Rodriguez said, “he didn’t do anything different. I thought I controlled the fight with my jab. My boy, León (Santa Cruz, friends from LA), was a world champion and I want to get to his level.”
In a battle of unbeaten welterweight prospects, favorito local Jeremy “J-Flash” Nichols (7-0-1, 2 KOs) and San Diego’s Kevin “KO” Ottley (3-0-1) luchó a un empate de 6 asaltos.

Fast moving Moreno won his eighth fight in nine months, parada “Dinero” Mike Fowler (5-4, 2 KOs) en la cuarta ronda. Moreno improves each fight, showing incredible poise for a 21-year old boxer, and he legitimately rates as a national prospect to watch.
