Roy Jones, Jr. wins in "Hook City"


In a clash of former world champions known for their left hooks, Roy “Captain Hook” Jones, Jr. (54-5, 40 KOs) schooled Jeff “Left Hook” Lacy (25-3, 17 KOs) on Saturday night at the MS Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mississippi. An extremely sharp Jones methodically battered Lacy, becoming more dominant as the bout progressed. Over the last few rounds Jones landed at will. Lacy’s corner stopped the fight after round ten. The bout was delayed approximately 30 minutes when the Jones and Lacy camps had a disagreement about the gloves.

Donaire defeated Concepcion


In a clash for the vacant WBA interim super flyweight title, former IBF flyweight champion Nonito Donaire (22-1, 14 KOs) won a twelve round unanimous decision over ex-interim king Rafael Concepcion (13-4-1, 8 KOs) on Saturday night at the Hard Rock Hotel/Casino in Las Vegas. Concepcion was unable to win the title as he weighed-in four-and-a-half pounds heavy (actually at super bantamweight poundage). The difference in power was evident as Concepcion stalked Donaire. Donaire, however, landed many bombs of his own and showed a little more as he won 117-111, 115-113, 116-112.

Steven Luevano: Actor | Quenito Henson: Assumer

Was it an accident or intentional?
Was there an acting on the part of Steven Luevano?
The answers to the above questions may be uncertain but there is one thing I'm sure of, commentator Quinito Henson is again assuming. The great assumer!

Bernabe Concepcion was disqualified for punching Steven Luevano after the bell at the end of the 7th round of their fight and the referee had come up to a decision of disqualification for the Filipino boxer. However, I think Luevano stayed on the floor for too long; it's either he was acting or Concepcion's punch is just to powerful for devastation.

Well, it has been done and the Filipino fighter lost.

There's just one thing, Mr. Henson should stop assuming. When he talks it's like he knows everything.

Bernabe Concepcion disqualified...

WBO world featherweight champion Steven Luevano (37-1-1, 15 KOs) retained his title by disqualification when WBO #1 contender Bernabe Concepcion (29-2-1, 17 KOs) hit him sfter the bell to end round seven. Concepcion surprisingly applied little pressure allowing Luevano to control the pace and do what he does best: counterpunch. The bout ended when Concepcion floored Luevano with a big right hand clearly after the bell. Luevano was down for several minutes.
