- In the main event of a seven bout card promoted by DiBella Entertainment, southpaw Chris Galeano won the vacant New York State Middleweight title with a ten round unanimous decision over Shawn Cameron in a battle of rising prospects. Taller and with superior reach, Galeano won the bout instead with straight power shots to the head and body in the first six rounds and rapid footwork. Cameron plotted forward in a straight line, stopping to plant his feet with nearly every punch. However, Galeano and trainer Marcos Suarez stuck to the game plan, keeping Galeano moving in and out and side to side in rapid motion, denying Cameron the chance to find the target. Cameron and trainer Don Saxby had no 'Plan B', and the ring was never cut off so Cameron could take the bout to the inside. Galeano continued to go around the ring in Aviator Arena in rapid circles. Further, Cameron appeared to be breathing heavily by the end of the fifth round. Galeano's punches seemed to lose their power from that point, allowing Cameron to win two or three rounds from that point, including the tenth round as Cameron's arms tired and he began to run. Galeano's legs were good, however, and although Cameron took punishment and was unmoved, he was too exhausted to pursue Galeano in the later rounds. Fighters in the Shawn Cameron camp and Cameron's corner noted after the bout Cameron appeared to have overtrained for the bout by several weeks. Neither fighter was hurt, clean bout refereed by Ricky Gonzalez. Scoring appeared neutral and fair. Cameron perhaps won two or three rounds down the stretch between six and ten, but Galeano clearly won the bout.
