Ryan Martin, Brian Ceballo win atop Hollywood Fight Nights

Tom Loeffler’s 360 Promotions made its debut on Tuesday night at The Avalon in Hollywood, CA, as highly touted junior welterweight Ryan Martin (21-0 12KOs) picked up a fourth-round stoppage win over professional opponent, Luis Florez (23-9 19KOs). The bout saw Martin not respecting Florez’s power which lead to a knockdown in the third and a stoppage in the fourth.

Previously, Martin fought at lightweight, but as mentioned on the telecasts had trouble making the weight mixed with a split decision win in his last outing saw him leave that weight class completely.

The co-main event saw highly touted amateur standout Brian Ceballo (1-0 1KO) make short work of Luis Lopez Longoria (1-1 1KO) as the decorated amateur appeared to break Longoria’s nose with a punch forcing Longoria to ask the referee to stop the bout. Ceballo showed great poise as well as great instincts ongoing for the kill when he sensed his opponent was hurt

Sergeii Bohachuk (7-0, 7 KOs), who trains with Abel Sanchez got a third-round stoppage of  Lucious Johnson (4-3, 3 KOs). The first round was one to remember as Bohachuk rocked Johnson who in exchange dropped Bohachuk, who got up before the standing eight count to essentially drop Johnson. Bohachuk would go on to dominate the rest of the bout. My observation, Bohachuk gets hit far too much.

Anthony “Pretty Boy” Chavez looked fairly pedestrian in a fight against Carlos Apodaca. Chavez appeared rocked in the first round, but Apodaca appeared to have nothing after the third round. Both somewhat underwhelmed.

Bantamweight Jose Casillas (1-0, 1 KO) with a third-round knockout over May Garduno. It is important to note that Casillas was losing the fight on my card until he landed the knockout punch.

Luis Rosales (7-0-1, 6KOs) won a unanimous decision over Guadalupe Arroyo (3-11).

The opening bout saw Mike Melikian (2-2-1) get a split decision over Alfredo Hernandez (3-2, 2 KO). I didn’t see this fight, but a lot of people are giving Melikian a lot of heat. I commentated one of Melikian’s fight and think people should leave him alone, he didn’t judge the bout.
