LAS VEGAS (Desember 17, 2016) – Tonight’s final round of the 2016 “Uitklophou 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 Events Center indoor facility.
Die “Uitklophou Night at the D” reeks, aangebied deur die D Las Vegasand Down town Las Vegas Events Center, was promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boks Promotions. This evening’s seventh and final “Uitklop by die 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 Uitklophoue) pressed the action as the clear aggressor, but Cantu stood in the pocket, te, as the technician used his defensive skills to make things difficult for his world rated Filipino opponent.
Uiteindelik, it all came down to the 10ste ronde, 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, gegradeerde Geen. 11 by the International Boxing Federation (IBF) en Geen. 15 deur die World Boxing Organisasie (WBO), took Cantu’s North American Boxing Federation (NABF) title belt in addition to capturing the vacant WBO Inter-Continental strap.
Cantu, wat gegradeerde Geen. 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, egter, proved to be Palicte’s slugging ability in this classic confrontation in which the puncher barely prevailed against the boxer.
In die mede-funksie, Jamaican junior middleweight Nathaniel “No Problem” Gallimore(16-1-1, 13 Uitklophoue) scored a spectacular first-round knockout of previously unbeaten Angelo “Bombardero” Baez (15-1-1, 11 Uitklophoue), 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 count.
Galiimore (pictured above in green), who fights out of Chicago, dedicated the fight to his stablemate, die laat 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 Uitklophoue) kept his undefeated record intact against previously unbeaten Mexican fighter Dilan “El Tremendo” Loza(5-1, 3 Uitklophoue) 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. Skeidsregter Jay Nady halted the bout after the third round.

“Vir die grootste deel,” 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, tuisdorp gunsteling Jeremy “J-flits” Nichols (7-0-1, 2 Uitklophoue) and San Diego’s Kevin “KO” Ottley (3-0-1) fought to a 6-round draw.

RJJ-promoted fighters, junior liggewig Randy “Die Matador” Moreno (8-0, 7 Uitklophoue) en kapokgewig Max “The Baby-Faced Assassin” Ornelas (7-0, 3 Uitklophoue), were both successfully showcased on the undercard.
Fast moving Moreno won his eighth fight in nine months, stop “Geld” Mike Fowler (5-4, 2 Uitklophoue) in die vierde ronde. 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 Uitklophoue) 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.
Ornelas (L) is nou 7-0 and only 18 jaar oud
Ook veg op die undercard, Texas junior featherweight Jessie “Die een” Hernandez verbeter 8-1 (6 Uitklophoue) with a 6-round unanimous decision over Sharone “Smoke” Carter (6-2, 2 Uitklophoue).

“Iceman” John Scully’s 4th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion

Quote: “
The wait in the dressing room before a professional boxing match -that last hour- could be enough to strip a man who never boxed before of whatever pride, desire and heart he THOUGHT he had” –Iceman John Scully, April 2002
“Boxing is a tight-knit fraternity. Everybody knows everybody. But a line in the resin will forever be drawn separating those who step into the square ring and those who DON’T. Many, many people make money on a fight, but when the bell sounds, only two people answer it.” – Randy Smith, Februarie 2003, Journal Inquirer (Manchester, Conn.) Newspaper

LAS VEGAS (Mei 21, 2016) – Determined Phoenix middleweight Andrew “Hurricane” Hernandez shocked heavy favorite Arif “The Pedator” Magomedov in tonight’s main event on the “Uitklophou Night at the D” kaart, which aired live on CBS Sports Network from under the neon lights at the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center (DLVEC) outdoor venue.
Die “Uitklophou Night at the D” reeks, aangebied deur die D Las Vegasand DLVEC, word bevorder deur Roy Jones jr. (RJJ) Boks Promotions. Tonight’s event was promoted in association with Main Events and Shamo Boxing Promotions.
Before a sold-out crowd, Hernandez (12-4-1, 4 Uitklophoue) pounded world-rated middleweight Magomedov (17-1, 10 Uitklophoue), winning a unanimous 10-round decision (100-89 twee keer, 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 en IBF #14) in die 10ste.
“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. Ek was baie voorberei. 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.
(L-R) — Arif Magomedov & Andrew Hernandez
Southpaw super welterweights John “The Phenom” Vera (14-0, 9 Uitklophoue), of Fort Worth, and Phoenix’ Joey “Boxer” Ruelas (10-2-1, 4 Uitklophoue) went toe-to-toe from the opening bell and they never let up in the co-feature. Vera exploded in the round of this firestorm, battering the game Ruelas around, tot skeidsregter 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, te. I broke him down and just kept throwing those lefts.”
(L-R) – John Vera & Joey Ruelas
In the TV opener, boxing prodigy Devin “The Dream” Haney (6-0, 4 Uitklophoue) made history as the 17-year-old – a junior in high school – became the youngest American professional boxer to fight on national television. Die Floyd Mayweather, Sr.-trained Haney, fighting out of Las Vegas in front of his rapidly growing fan-base, showcased his vast skills against previously undefeated Mexican invader Jairo “El Leon” Vargas (Fernandez), unloading 14 unanswered punches for a 4ste round technical knockout victory. Nady stopped the fight without counting when a badly hurt Vargas (4-1, 3 Uitklophoue) hit the deck hard.
“I happy that I put on a good performance for my fans,” Haney commented after the fight. “My team put together the strategy to use my jab and breakdown his body. I picked up my combinations did what I was told to do.”
(L-R) — Devin Haney & Jairo Vargas
In a battle of Texas junior welterweights, Tony Lopez (11-1, 4 Uitklophoue) dropped previously unbeaten Jerren “Hardknocks” Cochran (11-1-1, 4 Uitklophoue) twice with lefts in the opening round and finished him off in the second, knocking him out cold with a punishing right.
“Two mores seconds and I would have finished him off in the first,” Lopez remarked. “My corner told me that, after the lefts, come back with a right. They gave me the game plan and I executed.”
(L-R) Tony Lopez & Jerren Cochran
In die opening bout, Las Vegas favorite Jeremy “J-flits” Nichols (4-0, 2 Uitklophoue) dominated Puerto Rican welterweight Julie “Injun” Santos (2-3, 1 KO) on his way to a win by unanimous 4-round decision.
“I know I could have done a little better, throwing more combinations and jab,” Nichols said. “He came in trying but he couldn’t fight. I sent him back to Puerto Rico with a loss.”
