Good show on DAZN tonight. The 4 rounder that opened the show was a fun fight, the Cobbs fight was good, Acosta/Soto was excellent and the main event was good while it lasted.

A few years ago, Bnation in the UK would have picked this us. Don't see why they still don't. Not like Sky are ever gonna pick up these cards.

UNDERCARD
Luis Feliciano threatened to enter uncharted water, but closed the show shortly before his battle with Mexico's Fernando Carcamo ended late in round seven.
The unbeaten welterweight from Milwaukee—who now resides in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., roughly 90 minutes from the fight venue—patiently picked apart Carcamo (23-10, 18KOs), already shopworn at just 28 years of age but who offered a brave stand for as long as he could absorb the incoming. Feliciano continued to work the body, which set up his dominant right hand which landed with alarming regularity with each passing round.
Feliciano nearly closed the show in round four, snapping back Carcamo's head but backing off in choosing to box in the middle rounds. Having preserved his energy, Feliciano stepped up the attack in round seven. A barrage of power punches was punctuated by a right hand upstairs which forced Carcamo to a knee. Referee Ray Corona began his mandatory eight count, but observed that the fallen Mexican boxer was done for the night, waving off the contest towards the end of round seven, the third time the 26-year old Feliciano (12-0, 8KOs) has been extended that far in his young career.
Blair 'The Flair' Cobbs proved to be as entertaining from bell to bell as he is outside the ring.
The charismatic welterweight prospect from Las Vegas by way of Philadelphia, Penn. remained unbeaten following a 6th round stoppage of Robert Redmond Jr. The bout ended with Redmond Jr's right eye swollen shut and not fighting back, prompting his corner to order a stoppage at 1:52 of round six.
Cobbs scored the bout's lone knockdown, coming midway through round two during a fiery exchange. The 29-year old southpaw stood bravely in the trenches, trading with Redmond Jr. (7-2-2) in landing a right hook to send the Houston (Tex.) native crashing to the canvas. Redmond Jr. beat the count and fearlessly punched his way back into the fight, even seizing the initiative in a spirited round four that featured non-stop exchanges.
It was a race against the clock, however, as Redmond Jr. was forced to contend with a rapidly swelling right eye. The ringside physician warned him at the end of the 5th round that he was on the verge of stopping the fight. As Cobbs (11-0-1, 7KOs) took control, Redmond Jr's corner rescued their charge from additional punishment.
Time will tell if Aaron McKenna can remain as tall an order for incoming welterweight as his 6'1" frame suggests. For now, the 19-year old from Los Angeles by way of Smithborough, Ireland continues his climb as a rising prospect following a 2nd round stoppage of Daniel Perales.
McKenna (8-0, 5KOs) struck early, rocking Perales (10-18-2) in the opening round with a left hook upstairs. An ensuing flurry forced the 27-year old Mexican to lean along the ropes before falling to the canvas, complaining that he was struck behind the head. Referee Ray Corona wasn't having any of it, ruling the sequence an official knockdown. It became a moot point one round later, as McKenna went on the attack, working the body and forcing Perales to cover up without throwing anything in return, prompting a stoppage at 0:42 of round two.
Through three pro bouts, Anthony Garnica's toughest challenge thus far remains convincing official record keepers that he is still in fact unbeaten.
The 19-year old super bantamweight prospect was extended beyond the first round for the first time in his young career but still managed to cruise to a four-round shutout of Gilberto Duran (3-3). Scores were 40-35 across the board for Garnica (3-0, 2KOs), a disciple of head trainer Manny Robles who trains alongside and remains close friends with recently crowned unified heavyweight titlist Andy Ruiz Jr.
Garnica seemed on his way to a third consecutive 1st round knockout, flooring Duran in the opening round but unable to close the show. He instead put in rounds, winning virtually every second of their preliminary contest. The bout comes one month after Garnica traveled to Tijuana, Mex. in May, scoring a 1st round knockout only for the local commission to transpose the official result. Garnica's manager, Roger Ruiz continues to work with boxing database BoxRec.com to have the error corrected.
Opening the telecast, Van Nuys (Calif.) middleweight Emilio Carlos Rodriguez was forced to settle for a four-round draw with boxing convert Clay Collard. One judge ruled in favor of Rodriguez by score of 40-36, not at all telling the story as was the case in matching tallies of 38-38 in the appropriately scored even affair.
Rodriguez (3-1-1, 2KOs) struggled with the aggression of Utah’s Collard (1-1-2, 0KOs), a former mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter who converted to boxing, making up for lost time as Friday’s bout was his third in just five weeks. His come-forward style and borderline questionable tactics frustrated Rodriguez but not to the point of pulling off the upset.

Re: Andrew Cancio vs. Alberto Machado II - June 21, 2019
INDIO, Calif. -- Proving it was no fluke, Andrew Cancio once again got the best of Alberto Machado on Friday night, as he retained his WBA "regular" 130-pound title by halting the former champion -- whom he defeated in February in their initial encounter.
This time, it took only three rounds.
Like their first fight, it was the body attack that punctured the resolve of Machado (21-2, 17 KOs), who attempted to limit the amount of exchanges early on. Having a decided advantage in height and reach, the plan for Machado was to keep Cancio (21-4-2, 15 KOs) at bay on the outside and make this contest into more of a boxing match after getting stopped in four by Cancio in February.
But a more confident Cancio didn't need as long this time around.
"I'm here to stay; it's not a fluke. I did this twice and you got to see the new and improved Andrew Cancio," said the victor.
It was a bit of a surprise when Machado decided to enforce the rematch clause. He vowed that he would be a more focused fighter this time around and that he would even the score. But after a relatively effective first round, during which he did box well from the perimeter of the ring, once again, he was drawn into exchanges in the midrange from the tenacious Cancio.
It was evident that the body blows took the air out of Machado. By the end of the second frame, Machado was wobbly and unsteady on his feet. Despite suffering a cut over his left eye from a clash of heads, nothing would stop Cancio's momentum.
Cancio stepped up the attack in the third and stalked Machado. A perfectly placed left hook to the body had him on the floor, gasping for air and eventually counted out by referee Raul Caiz Jr.
"It feels good. I was going for the head, and the body was there, and I took it. I'm here to stay at 130 -- it's not a fluke -- and I'm ready for the other champions," said Cancio, who has clearly established himself as one of the premier junior lightweights in the world.
But despite being a world champion, Cancio still has a day job to go to.
"Yeah, I'll be back at work on Monday," he said.

Re: Andrew Cancio vs. Alberto Machado II - June 21, 2019
Soto beats Acosta in controversial stoppage
Elwin Soto scored a 12th-round stoppage against Angel Acosta to capture the WBO junior flyweight title. As they entered the final round, Acosta was ahead on all three scorecards, 105-103, 106-102 and 107-101, in what was an entertaining scrap.
The stoppage will be debated, but there's no denying how dramatic this contest was.
"The truth is, I feel nice. It feels great to accomplish this. I worked very hard, and put a lot of effort into this," said Soto, who pulled off the improbable upset.
It was a pitched battle from the very beginning as both Acosta (20-2, 15 KOs) and Soto (15-1, 11 KOs) exchanged heavy punches from the onset, and it was Soto who took an early lead as he sent Acosta to the canvas in the second round with a left hook-right hand combination.
While Acosta was able to weather the storm, he was hurt again in the fourth from an overhand right.
But to his credit, Acosta steadied himself and began to control the fight with a consistent two-fisted attack that was keyed by a multitude of left hooks to the body, uppercuts down the middle and right hands over the top. Soto was shaken on several occasions, and it seemed going into the championship rounds that Acosta would be retaining his belt with his strong finishing kick.
As the bell sounded for the final round, all Acosta had to do was finish on his feet and he would go back to Puerto Rico with his belt. But instead he decided to close in on Soto in aggressive fashion, and Soto landed a big left hook off the ropes that had Acosta reeling and nearly out on his feet. As a few more blows were landed, referee Thomas Taylor called off the fight at 23 seconds of the round.
"I'm a little disappointed," said Acosta. "Sure, he hurt me, but not enough for the stoppage."
The disappointed former champion added,"I told the ref he shouldn't have stopped the fight. I was coming back to get him, but he shouldn't have stopped the fight. Look, it was the last round, there was not much more in the round."
At the end of the night, it was Acosta who outlanded Soto 230 to 162, but it was the challenger from Mexico who landed the punch that really counted.
"To be honest, I thought I was going to lose, and thank God I landed that punch and won the fight," said Soto.
Soto was behind on the scorecards 101-107 | 102-106 | 103-105; before round 12.
