[Ruthless-RKO]

Burley Brooks, a light heavyweight from Dallas, knocked down Fabian Valdez four times before referee Ivan Guillermo stopped their scheduled six-rounder 2:35 into the first round. Brooks (4-0, 4 KOs) dropped Valdez (3-6) with left hands to the body each time that the Mexican veteran went down.

Valdez has lost five of his past six bouts by knockout.

Following Brooks’ knockout, Dallas’ Juan Antonio Lopez scored a mild upset when he defeated Fernando Garcia by unanimous decision in an eight-round featherweight fight.

Lopez (15-7, 6 KOs) was busier and more accurate throughout their bout. He also opened a cut across the bridge of Garcia’s nose with a punch during the fourth round.

Lopez won by scores of 79-73, 79-73 and 77-75.

After winning the first 12 fights of his career, Garcia (12-2, 7 KOs) lost a second straight eight-round decision. In his previous fight, Mexico’s Dennis Contreras (21-10-1, 19 KOs) beat him by majority decision May 25 in Biloxi, Mississippi.

This Gerald Thomas who's fighting Robert Guerrero on the prelims is just terrible. Swings wide, and from a distance like an amateur. If Robert were younger he'd have done knocked this guy out. Even as is he'll win every round, and probably still stop him anyway. Or at least shut him out.

Sucks. Maybe next time they'll match Robert with a guy that can actually fight a little

[KiwiRider]

Molina has hahad so many forks stuck into him to see if he is done he can't go swimming any more because he sinks like a stone.

[kbackup408]

These american refs want a boxer cabbaged before they wave a fight off

[Duran1970]

Welterweight is to big for Molina

[skanksta]

Anyone scoring Barrios fight ?

[KiwiRider]

r1 to Barrios.

[KiwiRider]

2-0 Barrios

[skanksta]

Is that 2-1 ?

Or just seemed good because the Kazakh was better ?
