    It was a lot more competitive than the scores indicated. And the last round was pretty terrific.

    He was coming on very strong before the cut.

    Hmm. The knockdown won it by 1 maybe 2 at best for Redkack from what I saw. Kid needs some work.

    I think Ivan deserved the win, but he looked like complete ****

    Slow hands, slower feet, bad defense, looked defeated after Luis showed him he wouldn't wilt to his power, just not a high class fighter

    I agree.

    That 99-90 card was disgraceful. It was a close fight.

    I had Redkach winning 95-94.

    rekach was clearly knocked down by punch in the 1st, not so sure Luis knockdown wasn't more of a push.

    Hooker vs. Ramos - A-; great stylistic blend, eight rounds of hard fought and evenly matched action.

    Douglas vs. Davis - B+; only real complaint is how one-sided it was even though it was competitively and entertainingly one-sided.

    Thompson vs. Galarza - straight A; favorite got brutally knocked out early. You can't ask for more.

    Redkach vs. Luis - B-,;marred by some overly active officiating, periods of two-way sloppiness, and scores that were too wide in favor of the showcased prospect, but still a lot of fun.

    Luis' knockdown was legit as ruled, flash knockdown but legit. Redkach's was borderline, you would probably need a slow-motion replay from a different angle than what they showed on the broadcast to determine if his knuckle actually scraped the canvas.

    D Maurice Hooker vs. Abel Ramos, 8 rounds @ welterweight

    ✓ Antoine Douglas vs. Marquis Davis, 8 rounds @ middleweight

    John Thompson vs. ✓ Frank Galarza, 8 rounds @ light middleweight

    ✓ Ivan Redkach vs. Tony Luis, 10 rounds @ lightweight



    I enjoyed tonight's show online but the d@mn stream went blank in the final round of the Main Event and I missed the judges decision - thanx for the updated score.


    I esp liked Galarza's ambush attack in his win for the "Latino Champ" version of the WBC JMW belt. I read where he lives in the East New York section of Brooklyn and that's where I grew up so I'm proud of the hometown lad.


    You could readily see from tonight's show that these dudes fought with intensity and lots of hunger. That's great to see!

    I agree. 99-0 is out of line.
    Very close fight.
    Could of been a draw.
    Nevertheless, Luis did very well considering that the deck was stacked against him --- not only Redkack but to deal with a ref that was helping Redkack all nite long.
    Calling breaks when Luis was in the middle of a flurry. Didnt let them fight.

    Redkach clearly won the fight, even the punch stats showed it. He had his opponent hurt badly. I like the way he made adjustments during the fight........

    Galarza had one Hell of a knockout!!!

    Damn..unavoidable commitments kept me away from this one - I was really hoping to catch the Redkach fight live.

    I'll try to tube it in a bit, but it sounds like Ivan Grozny wasn't tremendously impressive (or perhaps Luis is better than advertised) - TBH it wasn't a huge surprise - Redkach has some fairly impressive KOs but hasn't really appeared such a monster when faced with resistance - the Sanchez fight (which is rather bizarrely listed by Boxrec as a HW clash) ended in a NC from cuts, but Ivan was looking far from dominant in the action there was.
