Aston Palicte (R) won a 10-round split decision over “Lil”” Oscar Cantù
LAS VEGAS (Dicembre 17, 2016) – Tonight’s final round of the 2016 “Knockout Night at the D” series ended in typical style as “Potente” Aston Palicte won a 10-round split decision over previously undefeated Lil'” Oscar Cantù in a terrific super flyweight match from start to finish inside the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center struttura interna.
Il “Knockout Night at the D” serie, presentato da D Las Vegasand Down town Las Vegas Events Center, was promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Promozioni di boxe. This evening’s seventh and finalKnockout at the Devent 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 KO) pressed the action as the clear aggressor, but Cantu stood in the pocket, troppo, as the technician used his defensive skills to make things difficult for his world rated Filipino opponent.
In definitiva, it all came down to the 10th round, which Palicte swept on all three judgesscorecards for a hard-fought split decision victory by scores of 98-92, 96-94, 94-96. Palicte, nominale No. 11 dalla Federazione Internazionale di Boxe (IBF) e No. 15 dal World Boxing Organization (WBO), took Cantu’s North American Boxing Federation (NABF) title belt in addition to capturing the vacant WBO Inter-Continental strap.
Cantu, che è valutato No. 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, tuttavia, proved to be Palicte’s slugging ability in this classic confrontation in which the puncher barely prevailed against the boxer.
Nella co-feature, Jamaican junior middleweight NathanielNo ProblemGallimore(16-1-1, 13 KO) scored a spectacular first-round knockout of previously unbeaten Angelo “BombarderoBaez (15-1-1, 11 KO), 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 contare.
Galiimore (pictured above in green), who fights out of Chicago, dedicated the fight to his stablemate, alla fine degli anni 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 KO) kept his undefeated record intact against previously unbeaten Mexican fighter DilanEl TremendoLoza(5-1, 3 KO) 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. Arbitro Jay Nady halted the bout after the third round.

“Per la maggior parte,” Rodriguez said, “he didn’t do anything different. I thought I controlled the fight with my jab. My boy, Leone (Santa Cruz, friends from LA), was a world champion and I want to get to his level.

RJJ-promoted fighters, juniores leggero Lascivo “Il Matador” Moreno (8-0, 7 KO) e gallo Max “L'assassino dalla faccia da bambino” Ornelas (7-0, 3 KO), were both successfully showcased on the undercard.
