Ван Heerden (23-1-1, 12 Нокаута), fighting out of Santa Monica, California by way of South Africa, used his 3-inch height advantage against Claggett (23-3-1, 16 Нокаута), the Canadian champion from Calgary, Alberta.
Neither fighter was hurt during the fight, in which there were continual back-and-forth exchanges of stinging combinations. Claggett battled to apply pressure in order to fight on the inside, while Van Heerden fought effectively from the outside.
The two evenly-matched welterweights patiently waited for the official announcement: 95-95 и 97-93 twice for Van Heerden.
“I knew I won this fight, 120-на сто, but I knew it was close,” Van Heerden commented. “We’re both winners тази вечер because of it was so close and we entertained the crowd. Me and Claggett entertained the crowd…..we delivered. I’ve been through so much and the lord helped me get this win. I look forward to a rematch, but I want to move forward.”
Undefeated California junior middleweight Neeco “The Rooster” Macias (12-0, 6 Нокаута) had a lot to crow about in the 8-round co-feature against Limberth “El Gallito” Ponce, Jr.(10-3, 8 Нокаута). Macias thoroughly dominated the action, firing non-stop shots from every conceivable angle. His unrelenting pressure enabled Macias, whose come-forward approach made him an instant fan favorite, to control the fight from start to finish for a unanimous decision.
“I knew he was going to be the toughest fighter I’ve fought,” Macias said. “I give Ponce much respect. We wanted to give fans a good show.”
Baltimore welterweight Malik “Продавач на лед” Hawkins (7-0, 6 Нокаута) даде Ерол “Spyda” Сидни (6-2-2, 2 Нокаута) a beating, fully displaying his arsenal of punches, hurting his gutsy opponent on several occasions. Hawkins’ aggressive style early in the fight broke-down Sidney, who was nearly finished at the end of the fourth and fifth rounds. Hawkins trapped Sidney a neutral corner at the start of the sixth round and a powerful uppercut sent Sidney down to a knee. Sidney beat referee Джей Нади‘s count but the veteran official had seen enough and he halted the bout 1:02 into the sixth.
“We’re back,” Hawkins proclaimed after the bout. I’d give myself an 8 ½ this fight.”

ГПР. 16тата “Knockout Night at the D” event will air Събота нощ, Април 16 (8 p.m. PT / 11 p.m. И), на живо по CBS Sports Network from under the neon lights at the DLVEC outdoor venue.
The broadcast team includes Джим “JR” Рос, Sean Wheelock и бивш световен шампион Kevin “The Flushing Flash” Kelley. Joe Martinez is the ring announcer.
Claggett срещу. Van Heerden is a crossroads fight for both boxers with critical consequences, especially for the winner who will use it as an invaluable springboard for his boxing career.
The 26-year-old Claggett (23-3-1, 16 Нокаута), who is the reigning Canadian Professional Boxing Council and Canadian welterweight champion, is thrilled to be fighting in Las Vegas for the first time. “Това е сбъдната мечта,” той обясни. “I’ve trained in Las Vegas often but now it’s time to show what I can do there in a fight. A win will open many doors for me and could potentially lead to a path that will set up the rest of my boxing life. излишно да се каже, I am focused and prepared for the opportunity.”
VIDEO PROMO LINK:
Claggett, as well as Van Heerden, are known as high-action fighters, throwing punches in bunches, and something eventually has to give. Ван Heerden (23-1-1, 12 Нокаута), fighting out of Santa Monica (КАТО), is a former International Boxing Organization (IBO) и Международната федерация по бокс (IBF) полусредна категория шампион.
“Van Heerden is a rangy, quick and active fighter,” Claggett said. “I have an action style but, for many years, I was strictly a pressure fighter with a good body shot. В днешно време, въпреки че, I have a couple of more tricks up my sleeve. His heart and durability have been shown and is to be respected. This match-up is sure to produce some good exchanges. I expect this to be a high-action fight between two hungry fighters with him coming off a loss (to unbeaten rising star Ерол Спенс Jr. през септември миналата година) and me coming off more than one fight falling through. This is a great match up. He is similar to the style of (Константин)Ponomarev (who Claggett lost an 8-round decision to last year) with range and movement. And that motivates me!”
