Sonya Lamonakis versus Tanzee Daniel Female Heavyweight Bout
- Two minute rounds, competitive clean bout, some holding, neither fighter hurt or marked
- Lamonakis ranked third in the world by BoxRec, coming off a decision loss to Martha Salazar
- Rematch of their September 2012 bout at MGM Grand at Foxwoods Resort, a majority six round decision won by Lanonakis
- Close bout, with Daniel jabbing well in center ring. Lamonakis was more effective however in cutting off the ring for the majority of each round, and outworking the heavier 240 pound Daniel after pinning her to the ropes. Daniel admitted after the bout she would have been better off coming in lighter at 220 to 225 pounds, and had taken the bout on only eight days notice, and could not move well against the lighter Lamonakis once the ring had been cut off. Neither fighter hit with power, resulting in a 'pattycake and pillow' war of jabs on the inside.
