REPORT

By Chris 'Polish Hitman' Morris/RockyMountainBoxing.com Last update: 5/16/2015[2]
Bouncing back from his December loss to Victor Ortiz, junior welterweight contender Manuel Perez (23-11-1, 5KOs) 
used a relentless body attack to force  former champion DeMarcus Corley (42-23-1, 25KOs) to wave the white flag
after the sixth. Perez dominated the fight to that point and it seemed just a matter of time before Perez would
stop him outright. The loss snapped a two fight win streak for the 40-year-old Corley.
Donald Cobb stopped Deane Williams in the first round.
Brittany Cruz was impressive in stopping Sheena Chaney in the second.
Mario Quezada debuted with a win over Antonio Solarzano.

Duran Hill and Sting Like A Bee Entertainment brought Colorado fight fans a solid 10 round main event which saw Manuel
‘Manos’ Perez use a relentless body attack to wear DeMarcus ‘Chop-Chop’ Corley down and make him quit on his stool
between the sixth and seventh rounds. Much to the delight of the hometown fans who took the action in from the parking
lot of PT’s Showclub in Denver, Colorado.
Perez started quick and never let up. He landed a heavy right hand that stunned Corley in the first, gaining some
respect and winning the round. In the second Perez began concentrating his attack to the 40 year old body of Corley
with good results. Referee Stephen Blea warned Perez for low blows on a few occasions with some landing on the belt
line and some below. Perez rocked Corley back on his heels late in the round to solidify a 2-0 lead on the scorecards.
The third saw more of the same with Perez continuing his body attack and straight right hands. Corley fought in spots
and landed some nice uppercuts but not enough to win the round.
Corley seemed to loosen up in the fourth as he let his hands go in combination and had his best round of the fight.
Perez kept at the body but Corley outworked and outlanded him to win his first round. The fourth was close but Perez
started to find a home for his right hand and even cut Corley under the right eye. Corley looks to be fading in the
fifth as he is throwing one punch at a time and looking for a fight changer. Perez keeps his workman like effort up
and is starting to take control of the fight.
Perez lands big shots to both the body and head in the sixth, some straying low. While trapped on the ropes Corley
decides to look to the referee to complain. Perez pays it no mind and keeps ripping shots to the body. Corley looks
drained by the end of the round as he finds his way back to the corner to listen to advice from Jeff Mayweather.
As the seventh round is about to start Corley calls off the fight saying “Came up short tonight at the six round it
was hard for me to breathe. I made the decision to stop the fight it was just too hard for me to breathe outside.”
Perez gets the win moving his ledger to 23-11-1, 5KOs while Corley drops his 42-23-1, 25KOs.Corley had said he wanted
to fight Mickey Bey after he disposed of Perez. When asking Perez about Bey, after disposing of Corley, he said
emphatically “Anyone at 135. This is my weight and I’m staying here. I’ll fight anyone.”
In undercard action light heavyweight ‘Dynamite’ Donald Cobb stopped Deane Williams in the first. Cobb improves to 6-0,
5KOs and Williams slips to 0-2-1.
Brittany Cruz put Sheena Chaney away in the second with precision punching in a featherweight fight. Cruz moves to
9-6-2, 1KO and Chaney stands at 1-5-1, 1KO.
Pro debutant Mario Quezada debuted with a four round unanimous decision over Antonio Solarzano, now 1-5, in featherweight
action.
There was also an exhibition bout between Alma Garcia and Patty Juarez who is Mariana Juarez’ sister.
The fight card was seen live on the web by stream on BAM TV (http://ustre.am/14GlT) with ringside analysts Chantel Cordova
(NABF female super flyweight Champion), Chris Morris (Rocky Mountain Boxing) and Stephen Johnson (Rocky Mountain Boxing &
Examiner), calling the action.

Duran Hill and Sting Like a Bee are looking to build on this show. It was nice to see Manuel Perez get a significant fight
in his hometown and at his natural weight. Duran Hill and Steve Mestas worked hard together to make this fight happen for
the fans and fighters and should be commended for their cooperation.
