Glendale Fight Night VI proves to be knockout[2] By Andrew J. Campa, Glendale News-Press December 6, 2014 | 11:42 p.m. GLENDALE — Perhaps it’s fair to say that Saturday’s evening “Glendale Fight Night VI” was a knockout. The nine-card event, put together by Top Rank, in association with Bash Boxing, Art of Boxing Promotions and the Glendale Civic Auditorium, featured featherweight Brian “The Hawaiian Punch” Viloria and lightweight Jose Felix Jr. and included knockouts in six of nine bouts. Viloria (35-4, 21 KOs) was showcased in the night’s “special event” and improved to 3-0 this year with a knockout of Mexican fighter Armando Vasquez at 1:37 of the fourth round. “I hit him with a good liver shot and it wasn’t until then that I thought he would go down,” Viloria said. “You can never assume anything in a fight.” Viloria delivered a staggering blow to Vasquez, who up until that point, appeared to be holding his own. Vasquez (20-14-2, five KOs) had cut Viloria above his right eye with a head butt in the second round before landing two damaging roundhouses in the third round. Yet, Viloria sent Vasquez to one knee with a perfectly-placed body shot that debilitated and defeated Vasquez. “I want a chance to get back my belts and fights like these help,” said Viloria, a Freddie Roach-trained fighter who previously surrendered his WBA and WBO titles to Juan Francisco Estrada in April of 2013. Perhaps the only non-competitive fight was the main event, as Felix Jr. lit up and knocked out fellow lightweight countryman Luis Solis 41 seconds into the third round. The fight seemed a foregone conclusion 1:10 into the second round when Felix Jr. (28-1-1, 22 KOs) hammered Solis (15-6-4, nine KOs) to the canvas with a jab that appeared to leave Solis dazed. Solis survived the round, but was easy pickings in the third and fell to a knee after a three-punch combination that ended with a cross to the jaw. “I’ve been training hard to have these types of fights,” Felix Jr. said after the bout in Spanish. “I knew after the first round that I would win.” The evening’s first televised bout saw rising featherweight Saul Rodriguez (15-0-1, 11 KOs) knock out Juan Solis (20-9) of Argentina at 56 seconds into the sixth round. Rodriguez developed a welt under his left eye midway through the third round, but responded by landing a pair of vicious fourth-round uppercuts against Solis, who survived the onslaught. Finally in the sixth, Solis backed Rodriguez into the corner and actually landed a thumb into the right eye of the Riverside- based fighter. Perhaps sensing a potential knockout, Solis, who had “Sugar” Shane Mosley in his corner, moved perilously toward Rodriguez. “I went back and he saw that I flinched a little bit, rubbed my eye and he came at me throwing hard punches,” Rodriguez said. That’s when Rodriguez connected on a left hook followed by a right jab that stunned Solis before a final left hook sent the Argentinian sprawling to the canvas. London Games’ silver medalist Esquiva Falcao improved to 6-0 overall with four knockouts when his middleweight fight with Lanny Dardar was stopped at 1:31 in the fifth round. Falcao staggered Dardar (2-2-2) in the second round and knocked the Louisiana native’s mouthpiece out twice in the fourth round before the referee halted the action in the following round. In the night’s opening bout between debuting welterweights, San Diego’s Cem Kilic defeated Santa Paula’s Jose Mejias by unanimous decision with identical scores of 40-36. Kilic was in control throughout, but both fighters showed signs of early fatigue. In similar fashion, Los Angeles’ Arnold Barbosa was in control from the opening bell and picked up a 40-36 identical score unanimous decision victory over Las Vegas’ Samuel Garcia (0-2) in a welterweight bout. With the win, Barbosa improved to 4-0. In other action, two fights ended exactly at 2:05 in the fourth round as Tulare’s Danny Valdivia (6-0, five KOs) knocked out Texan Tolutomi Agunbiade (2-2) in their super welterweight fight, while super featherweight Daniel Franco (9-0, five KOs) downed Cesar Martinez (4-4) at the same mark. Maybe the best fight was between super lightweights Danny Ruiz (2-3) and Gloferson Ortizo (2-0-1), which was won by Ortizo by identical scores of 39-37 in a unanimous decision.
Jose Felix, Brian Viloria score stoppages on ‘Solo Boxeo’ card Francisco Salazar; RingTV December 7, 2014[3] GLENDALE, California – Another fight, another win for Jose Felix. At this pace, he could be fighting for another world title again. Jose Felix stopped game opponent Luis Solis in the third round of a scheduled eight-round bout at the Civic Auditorium. The bout headlined a “Solo Boxeo Tecate” broadcast that was promoted by Top Rank, in association with Bash Boxing and Art of Boxing Promotions. Felix was unbeaten in his first 27 bouts before losing a 12 round unanimous decision to Bryan Vasquez in Las Vegas, Nev. on April 12. Felix bounced back from the loss to Vasquez by stopping Alejandro Rodriguez in the sixth round on Aug. 9. Solis entered the bout against Felix having lost three bouts in a row. Solis was game from the opening bell, aggressively taking the fight to Felix. He was rewarded by landing lefts and rights to the head of Felix. Undaunted, Felix swung momentum in his favor at the beginning of the second round, dropping Solis with a left hook to the head. Solis was game after getting up, but Felix began to impose his will more with each passing moment. Felix ended matters in the third round, dropping Solis again with a left hook to the head. Referee Dr. Lou Moret immediately waved the fight over at 41 seconds. Felix, from Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico, improves to 28-1-1, 23 KOs.

Viloria stops Vasquez Flyweight contender Brian Viloria stayed busy while awaiting a possible world title fight, stopping Armando Vasquez in the fourth round of a 10-round special attraction bout. Viloria attempted to work from the outside, while the shorter Vasquez pressed the action in an attempt to get on the inside of Viloria’s guard. Sometime during the second round, an accidental clash of heads opened a cut over the left eye of Viloria. The cut was a non-factor as little blood came out. Vasquez had his moments in the bout, landing right hands to the head of Viloria. As the third round progressed, Viloria began to time him, landing punches to the head and body. In the fourth round, Viloria landed a well-placed left hook to the body of Vasquez, dropping him to a knee. Vasquez tried to get up, but remained on his knee as referee Jack Reiss counted him out at 1:37. Viloria, from Waipahu, Hawaii, improves to 35-4, 21 KOs. Vasquez, from Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico, drops to 20-14-2 1 NC, 5 KOs. Rodriguez knocks out Solis Saul Rodriguez scored an impressive sixth round knockout over Juan Solis in a scheduled eight-round lightweight bout. It was a step up in competition for Rodriguez as Solis came to fight.

Both fighters had their moments in the third round, but Rodriguez hurt Solis in the fourth round with a counter left hook to the head. Rodriguez tried to follow up with a barrage of punches, but Solis was able to avoid getting hit again. After a competitive fifth round, Rodriguez hurt Solis with a double left hook to the head, eventually dropping him with a right to the head.
