Female junior lightweight Amanda Serrano demolished Marilyn Hernandez to earn a first-round technical knockout. Serrano (34-1-1, 26 KO’s) came out aggressively and immediately stunned her opponent. A body shot dropped Hernandez (26-11, 17 KO’s) but she was hurt again quickly after the fight resumed. Serrano continued to charge forward and wound up dropping Hernandez on the end of hard combinations two more times, the latter of which prompted referee Johnny Callas to call of the fight with Hernandez in a heap on the floor in a ring corner. The whole fight lasted 158 seconds.
Lenroy Thomas defeated Ed Fountain via eight-round unanimous decision in a heavyweight fight. Thomas (22-4, 11 KO’s) earned scores of 77-74 and 76-75 (twice) to earn the win. Both men gave a game effort but it was Thomas who found more success boxing from the outside. Fountain is now 12-3 with 5 KO’s.
In the first fight of the night, bantamweight prospect Dylan Price blew through Trevor Ballinger, stopping him in 121 seconds of the first round. With the TKO win, Price upped his unbeaten ledger to 4-0, 4 KO’s. Ballinger still hasn’t notched a professional win and is now 0-3.
