2004 Olympian welterweight Andre Berto (12-0, 10 KOs) dropped Sammy
Sparkman (18-14-1, 8 KOs) in round two and after a further barrage
of punches the bout was stopped at 2:50 of round two.
Unbeaten super middleweight Anthony Hanshaw (19-0, 13 KOs) was back
in action after a nearly two year layoff, taking a one-sided six
round decision over James North (8-11-2, 3 KOs). Hanshaw was credited
with a knockdown after buckling North's knees in the third. From
that point on, North was in survival mode, losing a shutout 60-53
decision on all cards.
Unbeaten junior middleweight Sechew Powell (20-0, 12 KOs) scored
a tenth round TKO over Willie Lee (14-5, 10 KOs). Lee held his own
in the early rounds, but Powell came on strong down the stretch,
finally dropping Lee in the tenth. A wobbly Lee barely beat the
count and the bouth was waved off at 2:23 of round ten.
Lightweight contender Isaac Hlatshwayo (25-0, 9 KOs) easily defeated
Jeremy Yelton (17-6, 9 KOs) over eight rounds in a junior welterweight
bout. Hlatshwayo outboxed Yelton and landed his jabs almost at will,
sweeping to a 80-72, 79-73, 80-72 win.
Heavyweight Terry Smith (27-1-1, 18 KOs) punished journeyman Dennis
McKinney (25-40-2, 12 KOs), finally trapping McKinney in a corner
forcing the referee to administer an eight count at 1:25 of round
eight. McKinney's corner then asked that the beating be stopped.
Unbeaten junior middleweight Jose Angel Rodriguez (7-0, 1 KO) dropped
Jesse Orta (6-7-1, 4 KOs) in round five on the way to a 60-53 win
on all cards.
