"Frankie 'Panchito' Warren ended the 28 bout winning streak of James 'Buddy' McGirt on Sunday with a unanimous decision in a 10 round junior welterweight match between previously undefeated and highly ranked fighters. Warren, of Corpus Christi, kept McGirt pinned against the ropes for much of the fight with a non-stop attack. The Brentwood, NY, fighter was able to score with occasional shots to Warren's head, but not with any regularity. Warren finished the fight with two cuts above his left eye and a swollen right eye, while McGirt had a swollen right eye. There were no knockdowns." -Associated Press
