Review: 2011-08-20, important victory for Fernando “Cochulito” Montiel but the fight was not very spectacular: two stars. Fernando Montiel defeated Alvaro Perez by KO in the third round; this match was the second fight for Montiel in the super bantamweight division after the defeat against Nonito Donaire (one of the best ko of 2011).

Review: 2011-08-19, Tomas Rojas was defending for the third time his WBC super flyweight title and was the favourite since he was ranked as the #2 in the world (boxrec super flyweight division) while his opponent, Suriyan Sor Rungvisai, was ranked as the #16 and was at his first attempt to win a world title in the super flyweight division. The fight Rojas vs Suriyan was not very exciting even if the fighter from Thailand managed to win “Gusano” Rojas. Watch the video!
Review: 2005-04-30, very exciting fight between Vicente Mosquera (20-1-1) and Yodsanan Sor Nanthachai (44-2-1). The boxer from Thailand, also known as Yodsanan 3K Battery had won the WBA World super featherweight title in 2002 (against Lakva Sim) and at his fourth defense he had to face the Panamanian boxer Mosquera, at his first fight in United States. Both boxers started strong and Yodsanan knocked down Mosquera in the first round, but in the third (one of the best rounds of the year) both fighters went down! In the second part of the match the pace slow down but in the last two rounds the battle started again. Vicente Mosquera defeated Yodsanan Sor Nanthachai by unanimous decision winning the WBA belt, then lost in 2006 against Edwin Valero (one of the best boxing fights of 2006). Watch the video!
Review: 2010-05-15, Michael Katsidis (26-2-0) had lost his interim WBO lightweight title against Joel Casamayor in 2008 (one of the best fights of the year) but regained it in 2009 (versus Vicente Escobedo); after six months his new opponent was the undefeated Kevin Mitchell (31-0-0) that wanted to win a world title in front of his fans, at the Upton Park in London. The aggressive Michael Katsidis was the underdog but he managed to defeat Kevin Mitchell in just three rounds: one of the best fights of 2010. Watch the video!
Review: 2011-08-13, very exciting fight between Abner Mares (21-0-1) and “King Kong” Joseph Agbeko (28-2-0), final of the Showtime bantamweight tournament. In the first round Agbeko went down and the referee counted him but the replay shows that it was a slip, then the fight went on with a high pace but the referee Russell Mora continued to commit several mistakes. In fact Mares threw a number of low blows throughout the fight but Mora did not take a point to the Mexican, moreover in the eleventh round the referee counted Joseph Agbeko a second time, but it was a low blow! The fight was close but the majority decision of the judges would have not been without Mora’s mistakes. The fight Agbeko vs Mares was valid for the IBF and WBC Silver bantamweight titles.

Review: 2011-08-13, we do not understand why David Tua woke up and started to fight just in the last rounds. In fact Tua knocked down Monte Barrett in the twelfth round but Barrett survived and won deservedly the fight by unanimous decision. As the first match (ended in a draw) this second fight between David Tua and Monte Barrett was valid for the WBO Asia Pacific and WBO Oriental heavyweight titles. Watch the video!
Review: 2011-08-19, good fight between David Diaz and Henry Lundy. In the fourth round (the most beautiful of the match) Diaz knocks down Lundy but he recovers and in the sixth Henry “Hank” Lundy knocks Diaz out with a nice straight left retaining his NABF lighweight title. Watch the video!
