"James Green overcame a 6-inch height disadvantage to upset Wilford Scypion in a 10 round unanimous decision Sunday. Scypion established control early. In his biggest round, the 4th, he pummeled Green, whose mouth was already streaming blood, with three straight rights to the head. But the momentum turned after the 5th, when Scypion pushed his 5' 5" opponent into his corner after the bell rang and battered him until referee Vincent Rainone threw himself between the two fighters. Scypion pushed Rainone and shouted obscenities before returning to his corner. Green appeared renewed after the 5th and landed a right that opened a cut on Scypion's lip. In the 8th, Scypion's right eye began to swell badly and he spent the rest of the fight backing away from Green." -Associated Press

  • Referee Vincent Rainone penalized Scypion the round after Scypion landed a combination on Green after the bell ending the 7th round.
