אסטון פאליקטה (R) won a 10-round split decision over “ליל”” אוסקר קאנטו |
לאס וגאס (דצמבר 17, 2016) – Tonight’s final round of the 2016 “Knockout Night at the D” series ended in typical style as “אדיר” אסטון פאליקטה won a 10-round split decision over previously undefeated “Lil'” אוסקר קאנטו in a terrific super flyweight match from start to finish inside the מרכז אירועים במרכז העיר לאס וגאס indoor facility.
The “Knockout Night at the D” סדרה, שהוצג על ידי D לאס וגאסand Down town Las Vegas Events Center, was promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) מבצעים לאגרוף. This evening’s seventh and final “Knockout at the D” event in 2016 aired live on רשת CBS ספורט 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 (פאליקט) and consummate boxer (Cantu). There was surprising non-stop action from the opening bell. Power punching Palicte (22-2, 18 קוס) pressed the action as the clear aggressor, but Cantu stood in the pocket, מדי, as the technician used his defensive skills to make things difficult for his world rated Filipino opponent.
סופו של דבר, it all came down to the 10ה סיבוב, which Palicte swept on all three judges’ scorecards for a hard-fought split decision victory by scores of 98-92, 96-94, 94-96. פאליקט, דירוג לא. 11 על ידי פדרציית האיגרוף הבינלאומית (IBF) ולא. 15 על ידי ארגון האיגרוף העולמי (WBO), took Cantu’s North American Boxing Federation (NABF) title belt in addition to capturing the vacant WBO Inter-Continental strap.
Cantu, שמדורג אין. 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, עם זאת, proved to be Palicte’s slugging ability in this classic confrontation in which the puncher barely prevailed against the boxer.
בשיתוף התכונה, Jamaican junior middleweight Nathaniel “No Problem” Gallimore(16-1-1, 13 קוס) scored a spectacular first-round knockout of previously unbeaten Angelo “Bombardero” Baez (15-1-1, 11 קוס), 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, מאוחר 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 קוס) kept his undefeated record intact against previously unbeaten Mexican fighter Dilan “El Tremendo” Loza(5-1, 3 קוס) in the television opener. רודריגז, 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. שופט Jay Nady halted the bout after the third round.

“על פי רוב,” Rodriguez said, “he didn’t do anything different. I thought I controlled the fight with my jab. My boy, אריה (סנטה קרוז, friends from LA), was a world champion and I want to get to his level.”
In a battle of unbeaten welterweight prospects, עיר הולדתו האהובה Jeremy “J-Flash” Nichols (7-0-1, 2 קוס) and San Diego’s קווין “KO” Ottley (3-0-1) fought to a 6-round draw.

RJJ-promoted fighters, קל משקל זוטר תַאַותָנִי “Matador” מורנו (8-0, 7 קוס) וbantamweight Max “The Baby-Faced Assassin” Ornelas (7-0, 3 קוס), were both successfully showcased on the undercard.
Fast moving Moreno won his eighth fight in nine months, עצירה “כסף” Mike Fowler (5-4, 2 קוס) בסיבוב הרביעי. Moreno improves each fight, showing incredible poise for a 21-year old boxer, and he legitimately rates as a national prospect to watch.
מורנו (L) kept rolling
Ornelas dropped Jorge Perez (6-5-1, 3 קוס) 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.
