Lipinets one step closer to title shot with win on ESPN

Super lightweight contender Sergey Lipinets (10-0, 8 KOs) scored a seventh round TKO over Walter Castillo (26-4-1, 19 KOs) on Friday night at the Horseshoe Tunica Hotel & Casino in Tunica, Mississippi in what appeared to a homage of the beloved Friday Night Fights series on ESPN. Lipinets suffered a cut over his eye in the fourth round, but still managed to stop Castillo in the seventh

2012 Olympic Silver medalist Tugstsogt Nyambayar (6-0, 6 KOs) needed a little over one minute to stop Rafael “Dynamite” Vazquez (16-3, 13 KOs) in the first round of a featherweight fight. Vasquez was dropped three times

In the television swing bout, bantamweight prospect David Perez (7-0, 3 KOs) dropped Adan Ortiz (9-2, 8 KOs) in first round, but a game Ortiz would make it to the cards as the judges scored the bout wide for Perez 60-53, 59-54 and 58-55.
