The crowd of 2,000, which sold-out one week in advance, was electrified by the main event, in which there was no “feeling out” as Ibeh and May traded bombs from the opening bell. Suddenly, въпреки че, Ibeh landed a powerful left cross on May, who was up against the ropes, and “The Outlaw” went down hard, severely knocked at the 59-seconds mark of the opening round. Ibeh, биещи се от Финикс, weighed 7-pounds less than for his last fight, 16 fewer than he weighed four fights ago as the former professional football player in Canada won his ninth fight in a row. “The Black Lion” is the cousin of the retired former heavyweight Ike Ibeabuchi. В съвместно черта събитието, hometown favorite Marquice Weston (16-4-1, 9 Нокаута) registered a first-round stoppage of heavyweight John Shipman (5-8, 2 Нокаута) by way of a vicious body shot.

Haitian-born lightweight Nesley Trezile (1-1) notched his first pro win in a mild upset with a four-round majority decision over local fighter Agustin Tovar (2-1, 0 Нокаута). Trezile fights out of Los Angeles. There was almost a major upset as Antonio Louis “Tswervo” Hernandez (7-19-4, 4 Нокаута) gave Juan “Just Business” Barajas (11-0-2, 7 Нокаута) everything he could handle in their six-round match. Hernandez landed clean shots on Barajas, who was coming off a 4-year layoff. Barajas closed the fight strongly, but it wasn’t enough as the judges scored the fight a majority draw. Illinois junior welterweight Quinn McKenna (1-0-1, 0 Нокаута) won his first fight as a pro, taking a four-round unanimous decision from Clayton Hibbert (2-3, 2 Нокаута).
