Results:
Erickson Lubin vs. Jose De Jesus Macias
In the main event the very exciting southpaw prospect Erickson Lubin (14-0, 10 KOs) stepped into the ring against Jose De Jesus Macias (18-5-2 draws, 9 KOs).
Both fighters clearly had their established fan bases with dueling chants of “Mexico” and “Hammer” echoing periodically throughout the bout.
Macias was caught with a cuffing right that staggered him in Round 4 and his glove touched the canvas, which was correctly scored as a knockdown.
Apparently unhappy with this turn of events Marcias responded with a spirited volley of his own that ignited the hopes of his vocal Mexican supporters.
The fighters continued a sustained campaign against each other throughout the remainder of the fight in a fan friendly, well fought skirmish.
Lubin received the nod from the judges via unanimous decision with scores of 99-90, 100-89 and 100-89.
Alex De Jesus vs. Joseph Elegele
Puerto Rican Welterweight Alex DeJesus (21-2, 13 KOs) faced off with Florida native Joseph Elegele (15-2, 11 KOs) in a bout scheduled for eight rounds.
Elegele landed jolting shots through the first six minutes and appeared to win the first two stanzas as a result.
The two southpaws exchanged blows in Round 3 with Elegele again seeming to have the upper hand. This proved to be true when he dropped DeJesus at the end of the third round after buzzing him moments earlier.
Elegele dropped him again in Round 6 and this time the damage was too much. The stoppage came at 1:56 of the round.
