Surging little man David Cardenas of San Antonio continues to come up big! "El Giro", as he is known, dominated and outclassed Jaime Guevara of Laredo, who fell to 2-3-1 (0). Cardenas dazzled the packed-out crowd with electric footwork and thudding body attack. Cardenas was relentless and stayed before the Laredo native throughout the scheduled six-round affair unleashing lightning-fast combos and slowing Guevara down with thudding body shots. One in particular, landed for Cardenas and froze Guevara, and El Giro turned it up and jumped on his wounded opponent. That was enough, and the corner of Guevara stepped in and stopped the fight, saving the brave combatant from more damage. Cardenas who was accompanied by San Antonio Spurs swingman Keldon Johnson as usual improved his record to 8-0 (6) and took another step forward to what projects to be a world title shot in the near future.
In the main event of the evening, Uvalde, native, Paul Hernandez lit the crowd on fire in his pro debut. Scoring a first-round knockout in San Antonio back in May. However, Hernandez, who had a huge cheering section, got outworked and outlanded by Brandon Gutierrez, a southpaw from San Antonio who picked up the majority decision to move his record to 3-2 (1).
Javier "El Indo" Fernandez, the fan favorite from San Antonio, moved his record to 16-0 (7), as he beat up a naturally much bigger man in Juan de la Cruz Rodriguez of El Salvador. The fight was contested at 135 a full weight class or two, larger than what Fernandez naturally competes at. The San Antonio-based fighter dilated more footwork and movement then we are used to. He foot at the back foot as the bigger Rodriguez tried to use his weight to his advantage. Fernendez was able to fight the larger man off, and attacked the body, and scored with slicing and accurate combinations, earning him a majority decision by scores of 60-54, 59-55, and a ridiculous 57-57 card.
Two undefeated south Texans put their "0" on the lines and let it all go as Fabian "Unknown Warrior" Diaz of Edinburg and is one of the brightest prospects in the Lone Star State, took on Isaac Bermea of Eagle Pass and as the boxing gods would have it, both warriors left with their 0's intact as the two combatants settled for a disputed draw. By scores of 39-37 Diaz and 38-38, Diaz moved to 6-0-1 and Bermea 4-01. Diaz seemed to outwork and outland his opponent. The quickier twitchier athlete. Diaz landed consistently with the overhand right and scored with sharp, precise counters. However, he was too straight in and out and often got caught with thudding right hands from Berma at long range. One, in particular, scored that seemed to bother Diaz in the fourth and final round and that perhaps earned the man from Eagle pass the Majority draw.
Also on the card Gutierrez secured a second-round knockdown to bounce back from his first career loss to Laredo native Jiame Jasso back in April and picked up the win by scores of 40-35 x3 to move his record 11-1 (1).
Richard Medina kept his win streak alive, moved his record to 5-0-1 (1), and his comeback continues to cook as Medina picked up a unanimous decision victory by scores of 40-36 and 39-37x2 and picked up his third straight win since taking a 40-month layoff following 2019.Surging little man David Cardenas of San Antonio continues to come up big!
