19-year-old, undefeated super flyweight prospect Figo Ramirez took a step up into the 118-pound weight class and a major step up in talent. In just his second professional fight Ramirez took on a veteran of 22 professional fights in Francisco Bonilla of Chihuahua, Mexico. Starting out in a high guard Ramirez fired a sharp, thudding, shotgun-like jabs that backed his experienced opponent up, and a short right hand staggered Bonilla with just seconds remaining in the opening stanza. There's certainly a resemblance in style to Vergil Ortiz, who is fighting in the main event. That striking similarity was on display when he again staggered his opponent again. This time with a Vergil Ortiz-esque left hook just over a minute into the second round. Chants of Figo, Figo, Figo poured in as Ramirez demoed his much more experienced opponent. Controlling range like a veteran, jabbing and circling. Ramirez continued precision punching scoring with one-two's and moving out of the way. Showing skills and experience beyond his years in all three distances. The Dallas native continued to mix up head and body shots to perfection as he dominated the second and third rounds and rolled to the UD victory by scores of 39-36 on all three cards.
Carlos Nava of Pasadena, Texas scored an impressive fourth-round knockout after dropping his man in the second round he finished the job in the fourth with a barrage of power shots 36 into the fourth round. Moving Nava's record to 9-0 (6) A second body shot put his opponent Rodolfo Gernenadez on the mat in the second. Nava did not ease up and the finish came abruptly in the fourth " I hit him with a right hand and I can see that he was woozy" Nava added. He then unleashed a barrage of power shots that caused the referee to step in and call a halt to the bout at the 36-second mark of the fourth round in what was a scheduled six-rounder.
