Mata decisions Rosas in Mexico
Super featherweight Jorge ‘Kan’ Mata (19-2-2, 13 KOs) unamiously decisioned countryman Rafael ‘Panadero’ Rosas (19-7-2, 11 KOs) in a ten-rounder on Friday night in Lienzo Charro de Oceania in Mexico City.
Mata was in control the entire fight, coming forward and landing many jabs and hooks. Round five saw the ring doctor called in to check on a cut over the right eyebrow of Rosas but deemed him fit to continue. The pace slowed a bit in the following rounds. So much so that in round seven the referee told both fighters to throw punches. In round eight, the cut of Rosas was worsening but the ring doctor again deemed him fit to continue. The pace continued with Mata in control to the final bell. No official scoring were announced.

Heavyweight contender Martin Bakole (21-1, 16 KOs) massacred highly touted Jared Anderson (17-1, 15 KOs), stopping him in the fifth round of a three-knockdown performance. Anderson was badly hurt from an uppercut in round one by Bakole. The 24-year-old Anderson was literally out on his feet and defensively to three follow-up power punches from Bakole that put him down. Anderson only made it out of the first round due to the knockdown coming in the final seconds. Bakole showed no respect for Anderson’s punches in rounds two, three, and four, walking through his shots to land heavy shots to the head. The punches from Bakole continually snapped Anderson’s head back. Anderson was bleeding from the mouth at the end of the fourth and looked in bad shape, walking back to his corner after taking a beating from Bakole.

Bakole then dropped Anderson with a left to the head. When Anderson got to his feet, he was gone and defenseless to protect himself when the action resumed. Bakole then finished off Anderson with several sledgehammer blows that put him down for the second time in the round. The referee then waved it off. The time of the stoppage was at 2:07 of round five.
