SHREVEPORT, La. – January 31, 2020 - After his fourth consecutive victory in a little more than 12 months onСхоБок: Нова генерација, Ruben Villa is ready to graduate from the 19-year prospect series.
The undefeated featherweight Villa put on a boxing clinic in a dominating unanimous decision win over Alexei Collado. The judges scored the fight 99-91 and 98-92 twice in the main event Friday night from George’s Pond at Hirsch Coliseum in Shreveport, La.
The 22-year-old Salinas, Цалиф., native Villa (18-0, 5 КОс), who entered the ring paying tribute to the late Kobe Bryant by wearing his No. 8 Lakers jersey into the ring, called his performance “solid” against a “tough and aggressive fighter.”
“He was challenging throughout the fight,” said Villa. “I feel like I put on a good show. He was a big knockout puncher and he’s no pushover. He brought out the best in me.”
Villa, who was the was also the 2014 и 2016 National Golden Gloves Champion, is currently ranked No. 5 у 126 pounds by the WBO and No. 13 по ВБЦ. He said after the fight he’s ready for the best his division has to offer.
The 31-year-old Cuban Collado (26-3, 23 КОс) који живи у Мајамију, lost for the first time in seven bouts. “It was a good fight,” said Collado, који је освојио 2006 Junior World Title in the flyweight division. “We both brought everything. We put on a good show for the fans. He moves a lot and he’s a smart fighter. I feel like when I threw a lot I hit him but I wasn’t active enough.”
Villa said he stayed disciplined training during the holidays. “Now I’m going to take a few weeks off and then get right back in the gym,", Рекао је он.
У сарадњи-феатуред борбе, undefeated Ukrainian and 2012 Olympic Bronze medalist Taras Shelestyuk (18-0, 10 КОс) recorded a dominating unanimous decision victory against Argentina’s Luis Alberto Veron (18-2-2, 9 КОс). The judges scored the 10-round welterweight fight 97-93 и 98-92 двапут.
Схелестиук, who overcame a bad fifth-round cut on his forehead, had boxed just 10 rounds in the last three years.
“It was a good fight,” Shelestyuk said. “I hit him with some good shots, and controlled the fight. I have been out since March, and I feel that I performed well. I am happy to be back on television.
“The cut didn’t bother me. This is professional boxing, and these things happen. I want to be back in May or June. If I come back in the next several months, I want to fight a big name – guys like Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia.”
У отварачу теле емисије, late replacement Sulaiman Segawa (12-2-1, 3 КОс) looked impressive in hisСхоБок debut seemingly out-boxing Zhora Hamazaryan (9-1-2, 6 КОс) and recording the better stat sheet, but the close lightweight fight was called a split-decision draw. One judge had Segawa winning 78-74, another 77-75 for Hamazaryan and the third judge called it even, 76-76.
СхоБок analyst Steve Farhood had the fight scored 77-75 Сегава, while Barry Tompkins and Raul Marquez both saw it 78-74 in favor of Segawa.
„Победио сам у борби,” said Segawa, који се борио за само четири дана унапред. “I maintained him and his aggressiveness. I came up to his weight and dictated the action. I staggered him a couple of times and he was not touching me.”
Segawa earned the better stats in nearly every category. Hamazaryan was more active (57.5 punches per round to Segawa’s 53.6) but Segawa outlanded him 130-100 уопште, 42-14 jabs and 88-86 power and was more accurate in all phases (30%-22% уопште, 28%-8% Јабс, 31.3%-31.1% снага). Segawa even led 25-22 in body connects
Сегава, 28, moved to Silver Spring, Мд., two years ago and is originally from Kampala, Uganda. He has won six times against previously undefeated opponents with his two losses also to undefeated fighters.
Hamazaryan, who was making his thirdСхоБок изглед, returned to the ring after 16 months as he returned to his native Armenia to get his physical education degree.
“It was a good fight,” the 23-year-old Hamazaryan said. “I started slow because of the switch in opposition and felt rusty. I’m going to go right back to the gym and keep on learning. And I will be better.”
It was the second consecutive split draw for Hamazaryan, who also recorded a split draw against Thomas Mattice in his lastСхоБок appearance in September of 2018.
