JimJ.R.Ross і Аль Бернштэйна called the action from ringside on CBS Sports Network in North America and internationally via ESPN.

Стыў Claggett (L) upset Emmanuel Robles
Claggett, fighting out of Calgary, Канада, dropped down one weight class. Coming off a disputed 10-round decision loss to Chris van Heerden this past April, also at the Downtown Las Vegas Event Center, Claggett won a 10-round majority decision (98-92, 98-92, 94-96)сёння ўвечары for the vacant North American Boxing Association (Таксама) welterweight title. His expert body work allowed him to dictate the pace of the boxing match.
This is a long time coming, Claggett admitted. “I took the loss (супраць. ван Heerden) in stride, vowing to go back to the gym and make changes. I went down to 140 (кг.) and it was the right decision. I’m stronger. I I really worked hard.
I landed a couple of shots that hurt him noticeably. Ён цяжка. Robles is a champion in the making. У мяне ёсць шмат павагі да яго. Гэта маё жыццё. Ён (his loss to van Heerden) fueled me. The fire’s back in me. I love fighting in Las Vegas.
NeecoThe RoosterMacias (L) stole the show to became a rising star
The co-feature showcased a pair undefeated junior middleweights and from the opening bell it was a real firefight. Macias forced RolandoRola” Гарсія (9-1, 6 КО), a 3-time Mexican National amateur champion, to fight his fight. Macia’s aggressive style, always coming forward, throwing punches from every conceivable angle, ruled the coop. Garza got caught up in the action and paid for it, although the score after was 39-37, 39-37 for Macias, 39-37 for Garza, entering the fifth and final round. Macia’s constant pressure controlled the action, wearing down Garza, and paid dividends as he dropped Garza in the fifth. Суддзя Jay Nady had seen enough, halting the fight at that point as much due to the damage Garza had suffered in the first four rounds as the knockdown.
A rising star was born in Macia, who captured the vacant World Boxing Association (WBC) United States junior middleweight championship. “It’s conditioning, a lot of work,” Macias explained the reason for his non-stop action before crowing loudly in the ring. “I stuck to the game plan. I knew he’d come to fight with a lot of skill to out-box me and get points. My game plan was throw a lot of upper cuts and punches from every angle. It was all about throwing combinations.
He had a lot pf power, so I used defense to block punches. In the last round, I put punches together. I think the fight was stopped a little early and he could have kept going, but I didn’t see what he saw, and the referee was looking out for the fighters so we can fight another day.
Jeremy Nichols remained undefeated
In the television opener, flashy Las Vegas welterweight JeremyJ-FlashNichols (6-0, 2 КО) kept rolling, winning a 4-round unanimous decision over Стыў Belmontes (2-1, O KOs). Nichols outworked his opponent, consistently beating Belmontes to the punch with his superior quickness.
I think it could have been a little flashier,” Nichols admitted. “But give it up to my opponent, he came to fight. With more than 100 аматарскія баі, he could take a punch but he kept coming. My goal was to take everything from him and make him fight my fight. His hands were a little slower and he took a lot of good body shots and counters.
Marina Ramirez (R) was a crowd pleaser
Idaho junior flyweight Marina “Скалісты” Рамірэс (40-36, 40-36, 40-36) pitched a 4-round shutout, перамогшы RachelThe Black WidowSazoff (0-2) дзесяткамі 40-36 перасекчы мяжу. “I landed a lot of shots,” Ramirez noted. “I respect her, she was tough. The game plan worked and we got the win.
Randy Moreno (L) keeps improving
Twenty-year-old Randy Moreno (4-0, 3 КО) turned in the best performance of his young career, stopping Australian junior lightweight “12” Gaige Ireland (2-1-2, 2 КО) у трэцім раўндзе. Moreno fights with the poise of a much older fighter, effectively counter punching from the opening bell. “Гэта выдатна,” Moreno commented. “I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t forGil Martinez (Галоўны трэнер). He is notorious for his training methods and it’s paid off. I’ve been with him 10 гады. Fighting here at home means the world to me.
Ismail Muwendo (L) застаўся непераможаным
Непераможны лёгкі перспектыва IsmailSharp ShooterMuwendo, fighting out of Minneapolis by way of his native Uganda, палепшылася 18-0 (12 КО), taking a one-sided six-round unanimous decision from Eliseo Cruz (9-2-1, 6 КО). “I think I did well, I was out of the ring a long time,” Muwendo commented. He’s a tough guy who was ready.
Max Ornelas (R) opened the show in grand style
Las Vegas favorite MaxBaby Face AssassinOrnelas (4-0, 2 КО) remained unbeaten by way of a 4-round unanimous decision over Джонатан “Johnny BoyQuiorz (6-5, 1 KO). “I was confident (of winning the decision,” the 18-year-old Ornelas said. “I was out-boxing him. I love fighting here. I have a lot of support from family and friends; I’m motivated when I hear them.

The “O” must go in co-feature showdown at “Knockout Night at the D” between Undefeated junior middleweight prospects Rolando Garza & Neeco Macias

Жывая Сем. 9 on CBS Sports Network from the Downtown Las Vegas Event Center
Лас-Вегасе (Жнівень 30, 2016) – In a classic match-up of contrasting styles, RolandoRolaГарсія і NeecoThe RoosterMacias will both put their undefeated records on the line in the “Knockout Night at the D” 8-round co-featured event, вентыляцыя Пятніца ноч, Верасня 9, на CBS Sports Network, live from the outdoor Цэнтр Лас-Вегас Падзеі цэнтр (DLVEC).
The “Knockout Night at the D” серыя, presented by

and DLVEC, is promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions. Hall Of Fame announcers JimJ.R.Ross і Аль Бернштэйна will call all of the action from ringside, пачынаючы з 11 p.m. І / 11 p.m. І, on CBS Sports Network.

The 10-round main event pits unbeaten junior welterweights Эмануэль “RenegadeRobles (15-1-1, 5 КО) і Стыў “The Dragon” Claggett(23-4-1, 16 КО),promoted in association with Bobby D Presents, for the vacant North American Boxing Association (Таксама) – United States junior welterweight championship.
Garza and Macias (12-0, 6 КО), who will be fighting for the vacant WBCUS junior middleweight championship, are exact opposites in and out of the ring. The winner will advance to the next level of competition in the 154-pound division.
A technically sound boxer, Garza had an extensive amateur background as a member of the Mexican National Team, finishing with a 120-12 запіс, before turning pro September 29, 2012. The quiet, unassuming fighter 24-year-old was impressive in his last fight, also at the DLVEC this past Чэрвеня 10, in which he dominated previously unbeaten Erasmo Garcia (5-0-1) on his way to an 6-round unanimous decision (59-54, 59-54, 58-56) перамога.

The opportunity that Roy Jones Jr Boxing Promotions and CBS Sports Network has presented me has boosted my confidence to another level,” Garza said. “I have never been more confident in my skills, my team and training. I’m going to show Las Vegas and the rest of country what my talent brings into the ring. Once Las Vegas witnesses my talent, барацьбы на нацыянальным тэлебачанні, no one will be able to turn a blind eye. Not only will this fight put my name out there, but better opportunities will present themselves, and that keeps me motivated.

This fight will propel me into the 154-pound rankings. It’s high risk with an even higher reward: the WBC / US title. My opponent is a brawler; a non-stop, aggressive puncher who moves forward, which will make this fight nothing short of explosive fireworks in the ring.
In the other corner, the non-stop Macias relies on conditioning and an aggressive, always coming forward approach to break down his opponent. The 25-year-old Macias, fighting out of Palm Desert, Каліфорнія, unlike Garza, who now lives and trains in Austin (Тэхас), had only 30 amateur bouts having started boxing at the relative advanced age of 21. He did win gold medals at the National Blue & Gold Tournament, as well as Central California Golden Gloves and Desert Showdown. Macias is a showman, playing to the crowd before, during and after fights, crowing like a rooster, always with a broad smile on his face.

Maciaslast fight, also at the DLVE this past Красавіка 16, resulted in an action-packed fight against Limberth Ponce(10-2). Never tasking his foot off the pedal, Macias rolled to a win by 8-round unanimous decision (79-73 X 3), earning him a legion of new fans who were in attendance or watched the fight on CBS Sports Network.

Fighters don’t really care who they fight, they just want to fight,” Macias explained why his risking his undefeated record against an opponent who has never loss. “I had a fight fall through so, instead of waiting for another fight, when the opportunity to fight a 9-0 guy came, my coaches watched film of him and we agreed that I’m ready. This is the first time I’m fighting on the ‘Bside, but we’re using that as motivation. I take one fight at a time but I know I’m fighting on TV and need to look good. I want to show everyone that all the hard work has paid off.
I see this fight as my opponent probably having more skill, he’s technically sound and sets up his shots. But our plan is to take him out of his game plan, wear him down and have some fun doing it. My last fight was my first in Las Vegas and first time fighting on national television. It got a lot of notice. I’ve been through all of that now and will be even better prepared for this fight. It’s awesome fighting in Las Vegas on CBS Sports Network!”

Before a sold-out crowd, Эрнандэс (12-4-1, 4 КО) pounded world-rated middleweight Magomedov (17-1, 10 КО), winning a unanimous 10-round decision (100-89 двойчы, 98-91) for the vacant USNBC middleweight title. Hernandez hurt Magomedov in the third and seventh rounds, finally dropping the tough Russian (WBA #2, WB) #3, WBA #5 and IBF #14) у 10й.
This fight changes everything for me,” Hernandez proclaimed. “He’s very good and deserves all of the accolades he’s received but I now have my head on straight and I’m focused. My jab was very important tonight. He’s very strong but I wanted to fight him inside because I knew he couldn’t take it from me. Я быў вельмі падрыхтаваны. I think I may have broken my ankle in the fourth round but I kept going. I wanted to finish him, get the knockout, but he’s a very tough fighter. He has heart and showed why he has all of those accolades.
Four weeks ago, Hernandez was preparing to fight as a cruiserweight. He lost 40 pounds to make weight for this middleweight fight in what turned out to be one of the biggest upsets of the year.

Vera exploded in the round of this firestorm, battering the game Ruelas around, until referee Jay Nady halted the action in the sixth round. Vera remained undefeated and retained his NABA-USA title.
I knew eventually he’d put his hands down and I’d catch him,” Vera explained. “I thank him for the opportunity to fight. He’s helluva fighter, I give him that, but I know I’m a warrior. I took some shots but gave ’em, занадта. I broke him down and just kept throwing those lefts.

Хэні (pictured below) is a 7-time national amateur champion, who captured a gold medal at the 2015 Моладзевы Чэмпіён Свету, but he was unable to try-out for the 2016 U.S. Olympic Boxing Team because of his age.

Хэні, вядома, hasn’t graduated from high school yet. He’s been home schooled since the seventh grade, studying between his training responsibilities as a prizefighter: morning run, afternoon strength and conditioning, and full boxing workouts during the evening.
What can fans expect to see when they watch Haney in the ring? “Я баксёр-накаўцёрам; strong and fast,” Haney added. “I’m a balanced fighter who can do everything. I’m only 17 and still have a long way to go. Кожны дзень, my head trainer, Флойд Мэйвезер, Sr., works with me to relax more, walk-down my opponent and take my timeit’s not the amateurs anymoreto breakdown my opponent.
