Result:
Peter Kane (#53) UD10 Santos Laciar (#12)
Liverpudlian Kane travelled to Buenos Aires and dumped the twelve seed out of the competition.
Kane was on top throughout and made his intentions known by wobbling the Argentinian with a right hook in the first round. He suffered a setback in the fourth stanza when a right cross from Laciar opened a nasty cut on Kane's forhead, it bothered him for the rest of the fight.
In the ninth round Laciar enjoyed his best moment of the fight, Kane was visibly in trouble after shipping a right cross from the home fighter.
Kane though saved the best til last, with two minutes remaining in the fight he decked Laciar after landing a crushing combination. Laciar survived to the bell but the damage was done.
The last round had made all the difference on the cards and proved enough to give Kane a unanimous but close points decision.
In the next round Kane will travel to France to meet Louis Skena.
Next fight .... Saman Sorjaturong V Johnny Hill
