In the first three rounds it was nearby, with Catterall with an lead. In the fourth round, Eubank had its best round, making it a close fight.
In the sixth round, both went to the canvas for the second time. With half a minute left, a clash of heads caused a nasty cut on the right eyebrow of Catterall. Eubank had a small cut on his forehead.
Referee Williams finally came in when Eubank Catterall hit the back of the head. Catterall went to the corner, where his cornerman tried to put a towel on the cut when referee Williams made him continue. Shortly later, Catterall threw eubanks to the canvas. Eventually, eubanks, felt that he won the fight, jumped on the ropes in the corner.
Between rounds, the ringart checked the cut on Catterall. After a second after the beginning of the seventh, referee Bob Williams brought a standby.
The scores were 69-65, 69-66 and 69-66.
In the main support, former 2016 Olympic and IBF and IBO Super Featherweight World Champion Joe Cordina (18-, 9 KOs) defeated Jaret Gonzalez (17-2, 13 COs) with a unanimous decision of 10 round to win the vacant WBO Global Lightweight Title Bolt.
In the first round, Cordina returned from his first loss in his last fight and fourteen months of inactivity. He controlled the first round, but Gonzalez holds his own. In the last minute of the second round, Cordina Gonzalez shook a right to the chin.
In the third and fourth rounds, Cordina continued to win all four rounds and land the tough Gonzalez. In the last minute of fifth place, Gonzalez landed a flurry of bumps, which was his best offense to date. At the end of the round, Cordina pulls it out.
In the final seconds of the seventh round, some right of Cordina hurt to the center of Gonzalez. One of the commentators continued to say Quiroz, although he was suggested as Gonzalez and on the screen, Gonzalez.
In the eighth and ninth place, Cordina continued to win, but Gonzalez, in his first ten round, was a good opponent for Cordina.
The scores were 100-90, 99-91 and 98-92. Marcus McDonald was the referee.
The lightweight Aqib Fiaz (14-1, 2 costs) beat Alex Murphy (13-2) with a unanimous 10-round decision in an action-packed battle.
In the first round, it was all action. In the second round, Fiaz continued to push Murphy, which counteracted him well. In the third round, Murphy ended up a right, which caused a cut under the left eye of Fiaz in the last minute.
In the fourth round, it went back and forth, with Fiaz hurting Murphy with a body shot at the last minute, just to make Murphy count with his own body shot. In the sixth round, Murphy’s right -hand copy and a stitch worked all the time. In the last minute, Fiaz ends up well in combinations and a left hook.
In the seventh round, in the last minute, Murphy came to the offense, did not move around the ring and scored well against Fiaz. In the ninth round, Fiaz seems to continue to work the body, as Murphy’s reach benefits him, because he seems to be ahead, but a draw will not be surprised.
In the tenth and last round, both continued it as in the first round. Fiaz who works the body and Murphy contrast will make it difficult to ask the judges.
After that, both talked to each other and waited for the decision. Fiaz takes it to my surprise.
The scores were 97-93, 96-94 and 96-95. Steve Gray was the referee.
