    In the co-main event Tijuana’s Juan Carlos “Mini” Burgos used his longer reach and height to box and move his way to victory over Russia’s Vyacheslav Gusev (16-2) in a 10-round featherweight battle for the vacant WBC Cabofe title.



    Usually Burgos uses his height to pressure opponents into making mistakes. Not against Gusev. Instead he jabbed and moved and circled the Russian fighter who boxes out of the Wild Card Gym and is usually trained by Freddie Roach. But Roach is currently in New York with Filipino world title challenger Rodel Mayoral who fights WBO junior flyweight titleholder Ivan Calderon.



    From the opening minute Gusev ran into trouble when a left jab opened up a cut over his right eyebrow. The blood trickling down his eye troubled him as he continually dabbed at the blood.



    For the first half of the fight Burgos didn’t seem to have a problem using his box and move tactic. Then in the fifth round the smaller Russian fighter - who resembles actor Paul Rudd from the comedy Knocked Up - increased the pressure and attacked the body and head. It proved effective.



    With Gusev ignoring the blood streaming down the ever widening cut and attacking with more intensity, the fight began to get interesting. Some good combinations to the body and head by the Russian fighter scored.



    Burgos signaled to his trainer between rounds that his hands were hurt. Later, after the fight, the Mexican fighter acknowledged that both of his hands were injured around the second and third round.



    “My formula all along was to box and move,” said Burgos (22-0, 15 KOs) who had a four-inch height advantage over Gusev. “I couldn’t hit him square. He moved a lot.”



    Judge Fritz Werner had it 97-93 for Burgos and judge Ray Corona and Marty Denkin saw it 98-92 for Burgos.



    “I’m going to let my hand heal completely before I seek an elimination bout for the world title,” Burgos said.
