Jason Sosa knocks out Javier Fortuna

Excellent win for Sosa. He was fortunate to draw with Walters (though I thought it was closer than the commentary depicted), but he won this definitively. This is the second recent upset of a 130 pound titlist, as Jezreel Corralles destroyed long-reigning champ Takashi Uchiyama in April.
Loma vs Sosa?

So it can't even be blamed on being caught cold in the early rounds either. Was Sosa up on the scorecards at the time of the knockout? Or atleast should have been!

Very surprised you bet that, especially at those awful odds and seeing how he gave Walters a very tough fight. Tons of late money came in on Sosa, from -1700 to -650 at closing.

I have to be honest, I bet that after some cocktails and didn't place the name. I had it at -1250 or so. Not a huge bet, but a loser all the same.

Sosa is a very solid Philly fighter. Tough kid. Looking at some big time fights now. As if the last 2 weren't already.

The view isn't great, but watching that ending again it looks to me like a clash of heads may have initially stunned Fortuna.

Daaaaamn. I predicted that Sosa and Cermeno would win and would have bet on it if I hadn't lost a bit on the football recently

TV quality footage is VERY scarce, even on the Chinese video sites, from one of the highlights Sosa was down himself at some point

Was very close going into the 11th. Sosa had been down but it was more a push and Fortuna was sown in the 10th but again was more a push when he was in trouble and trying to hold on. Fortuna also deducted a point in the 10th too for deliberately spitting mouth guard out. What a division at super feather now some great fights to be made.

I Got it at Sosa +1000. I put $1000 on it... I know Jason personally. I knew he had the power to knock him out, but knew it was a tough fight either way.

Great win for Sosa and an excellent finish,it wasnt a great fight if im honest,i thought Fortuna was in front but not really looking great,just doing that bit more especially at the end of the rounds,i never seen Jason's draw with Walters but apparantly he was lucky not to lose that one but he left no doubt last night,hopefully he can go in with Corrales
I thought Cermeno was excellent too,great win,i never thought much of Qiu,i thought he was well behind on ther cards,the ref maybe stepped in a bit early but no doubt Nehomar must have been in front

Sosa did very well to come from behind.
The stoppage was the correct decision as his legs completely went and the ref had to help him back to his corner.
Fortuna was him usual wild self but effective. I had him ahead after 9 by a few rounds.
He then got put down and a point deducted for spitting the mouthpiece.
The money fight for Sosa now would be a Walters rematch with the belt on the line.

Wasn't close on the scorecards: 88-81 after the 9th, which makes it 95-91 after the 10th.
