Paredes would lose again tonight as he was knocked down in the final round before losing by unanimous decision.

In the co-main event, Australian-born Will Tomlinson (23-1-1, 13 KOs) scored an eighth-round TKO victory over Miguel Zamudio.
Despite having a reach and height disadvantage, Tomlinson, 28, landed quick right hands and left hooks on Zamudio, who could not do much to stop Tomlinson’s speed from getting the best of him.
Zamudio (31-6-1, 18 KOs) was thoroughly outclassed before finally being stopped by a flurry by Thomlinson.
In the first televised bout, Elias Espadas (6-1, 3 KOs) won a close majority decision win over Carlos Lopez (5-1-1, 3 KOs).
The six-round fight was closer than the cards suggest, with the judges scoring the fight 60-54 and 58-56, while one judge scored the fight a draw.
