Erik Ruiz celebrates his upset victory
LAS VEGAS (September 30, 2016) — late vervanging Erik “El Trumpo” Ruiz van streek Hanzel Martinez in vanavond “Knockout Night at the D” main event in front of another sold-out crowd at the outdoor Downtown Las Vegas Events Center. De “Knockout Night at the D” serie, presented by the D Las Vegas and Downtown Las Vegas Events Center, wordt gepromoot door Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) Boksen Promotions. Hall Of Fame announcers Jim “J.R.” Ross en Al Bernstein called the action from ringside with Sean Wheelock on CBS Sports Network in North America and internationally via ESPN. Ruiz (16-5-1, 6 KO) replaced Emmanuel Quartey, who was unable to secure a visa, and he was rewarded with a 10-round majority decision victory over fellow Mexican fighter Hanzel Martinez (23-3, 19 KO) voor de vacante World Boxing Association (WBA) International super bantamweight title. “El Trumpo,” fighting out of Oxnard, Californië, put on a clinic, avoiding the lunging Martinez, who was frustrated throughout the fight by Ruiz’ slickness. Martiniz lunged, Ruiz countered and then he slightly moved to the side, avoiding any potential. Defensively, Ruiz was far superior, keeping Martinez off balance through out the majority of rounds. Ruiz (R) controlled most of the action in the main event
“Ik voel me geweldig,” Ruiz exclaimed. “I took this last minute fight but I was ready for it. Hanzel is a tough fighter. He has guts. I didn’t think he’d to the full 10 rondes. This is an opportunity that will open a lot of doors for me. He knew he was coming to fight and I as ready for him.” In a good technical fight with a lot of give-and-take action from start to finish, ongeslagenStephon “Showstopper” Jong (15-0-3, 6 KO) verslagen Tony Lopez, Jr. (11-2, 4 KO) in a battle of gritty southpaws. Vechten uit St.. Louis, Young’s quickness prevailed over Lopes’ toughness, as both fighters put on a show for the vacant North American Boxing Association (Ook) bantamweight title in the co-feature. Young won a 10-round majority decision. (L) Young’s quickness was the difference
“Het was een harde strijd,” Young commented. “My coach said, if you wan it, go get him. And I did. I knew what I was coming to get. People want to see me fight in this division.” In the television opener, NABA USA super welterweight champion John “The Phenom” Vera (15-0, 10 KO) made another strong statement under the neon lights, stopping challenger Milorad “Micko” Zizic (12-2, 7 KO) in de tweede ronde. Making his second title defense, Vera, a southpaw, served notice to all super welterweights, dropping Zizic twice and then staggering him again before referee Kenny Baylesscalled an end to the fight. Vera Vera decked Zizic twice
“I came out here to put on a show,” Vera said after the fight. “I dropped him (eerste) with a left-right. The second knockdown I feinted and hit him with a hard right jab. I then turned right-handed because I knew my right was working. I knew I had him.” Las Vegas junior lightweight Randy Moreno cruised to his fifth win without a loss, unloading an unanswered barrage of punches on Fabian “El Suavecito” Alanez (1-1) until referee Jay Nady halted the fight in the second round. Moreno is a rising young star to watch
Popular Las Vegas welterweight Jeremy “J-Flash” Nichols verbeterd 7-0 with a totally in control 4-round decision over Marquis “De Hawk” Hawthorn (4-5, 1 KO). Nichols kept rollin’
Las Vegas’ 18-éénjarige bantamgewicht Max “The Baby Faced Assassin” Ornelas (5-0, 2 KO) bleef ongeslagen, winning a a 4-round unanimous technical decision overMulapi Enjani (2-3-2, 1 KO). Ornelas hurt Enjani near the end of the fourth round. Enajani hurt his knee and he was unable to continue, resulting in a technical decision 18-year-old Max Ornelas (L) verbeterd 5-0

In The 10-round main event, Hanzel “Rude Boy” Martinez (23-2, 19 KO) neemt
Emmanuel Quartey (20-2, 19 KO) voor de vacante World Boxing Association (WBA) International super bantamweight championship.
Tony Lopez, Jr. (11-1, 4 KOs faces unbeaten Stephon “Showstopper” Jong (14-0-3, 6 KO) for the vacant WBA North American Boxing Association (Ook) bantamweight title in the 10-round co-feature, while undefeated WBA-NABA USA super welterweight champion John “The Phenom” Vera (14-0, 9 KO) makes his first title defense against Milorad “Micko” Zizic (12-1, 6 KO) in een wedstrijd van 8 ronden.

All three of these title fights are evenly matched and can go either way. The winner of the main event should land a spot in the WBA’s top 15 ratings. And we plan to load up the undercard with many of Las Vegas’ most promising prospects.”
Martinez, 24, is een voormalige World Boxing Council (WBC) United States bantamweight champion. A native of Tijuana, Mexico, Martinez is ranked No. 4 by the NABA, and on the verge of breaking out on the national boxing scene. He hasn’t fought since last December because his last fight was cancelled when he was injured in a car accident.
A former super flyweight champion at home in Ghana, Quartey like Martinez is a dangerous puncher who has experience in the ring. He will be making his United State debut Zeven. 30 vs. Martinez.
The 22-year-old Lopez, vechten uit Dallas, is coming off of a sensational second-round stoppage of Jerren Cochran this past May at DLVEC. He is a former WBC Youth Intercontinental bantamweight champion, the belt he captured in 2014 with an 8-round unanimous decision from previously undefeated Isaac Torres (9-0) in Fort Worth. Lopez is rated No. 7 by the NABA.
Jong, 27, is rated No. 2 by the NABA. The southpaw was a decorated amateur boxer out of Saint Louis, compiling an 86-13 record, including a silver-medal performance at the 2011 Nationale Golden Gloves Kampioenschappen. All three of his draws were fought on the road. His last was in his most recent fight, last April at Turning Stone Casino in Verona, New York, in which he and 14-0 Nikolay Potapov battled evenly for 10 rondes.
Vera’s brutal sixth-round knockout of 10-1-1 Joey Ruelas, also at DLVEC, earned the left-handed Vera his NABA-USA super welterweight crown. Fighting out of Fort Worth, Vera will be facing the toughest opponent of his 3 ½ year professional career.
Zizic, a native of Montenegro is a former International Boxing Federation (IBF) Youth and WBC Mediterranean middleweight champion. Ranked No. 14 by the NABA, Zizic now lives and trains in the capital of boxing, Las Vegas.
