Rios Batters Teron in Three!!!

Brandon Rios made a statement in the Lightweight division as he pummeled one-time prospect Jorge Teron in round three of a scheduled ten round fight in McAlllen, Texas.

Rios landed heavy power shots over all three rounds as he constantly had Teron backpedaling away from a vicious assualt of hooks to the face. Teron started to bleed from nose in round two as Rios was relentless in his attack. Rios started round three by landing a hard right that backed Teron into the ropes that was follwed by a huge left that sent the mouthpiece of Teron flying out of his mouth. After a brief break to put the mouthpiece in, Rios landed a barrage of punches that made referee Lupe Garcia step in and stop the bout at 1:13 of round three.

Rios, 135 lbs of Oxnard, CA is now 24-0-1 with seventeen knockouts. Teron, 6′0″ 134 1/2 lbs of Bronx, NY took many shots and didn’t go down but is now 23-2-1.

Tomas Villa scored a tenth round disqualification over Juan Ruiz in the final scheduled round of their Featherweight fight.

It was an entertaining battle with both guys giving supreme effort as well as both having moments in the fight. In round ten, Ruiz and Villa were in a clinch and when referee Rafael Ramos tried to break them, Ruiz threw two punches towards Villa and thats when Ramos called a halt to the action at the :18 mark.

Villa is now 21-6-4. Ruiz is 23-6

Jerry Belmontes was cut on the top of his forehead from a first round butt from Morris Chile but Belmontes stuck it out and won a workmanlike unanimous decision in a six round Featherweight bout.
