Undercard
MW: Walter Cartier 15-1-2 (6) Draw 8 Anh Bilh 10-9-3 (2)
Cartier was winning a close fight until Bilh scored a knockdown in the 8th to manage a draw. Cartier drops to #15.
LW: Hoacine Khalfi 8-1-2 (1) UD 8 John L Davis 17-2-2 (3)
Khalfi outslugged Davis in a mild upset as the algerian improves to #20 while Davis drops to #21.
MW: Alfredo Durán 13-8-1 (7) UD 8 Carl Olson 21-1 (13)
Massive, massive upset as Olson was just looking to keep busy and keep his #2 position in the middleweights as Durans great defense was too much for Olson who even suffered a knockdown in the 5th. Duran takes a big jump to #22 while Olson drops dramatically from #2 to #23.

LW: Wesley "Chocolate Blur" Mouzon 21-1-1 (7) vs Matthew DeJong 14-12-3 (3), 10 rounds
Wesley Mouzon is currently the main man at lightweight and ranked #1 by the ring and looks to keep busy against australian DeJong who is coming off the greatest win of his career so far, as he outpointed Jonathan Green (16-8-2, with 6 KOs) and as such should have loads of confidence, but even so, he is not expected to cause too much trouble for the great counter-puncher Mouzon. Wesley is coming off being knocked down, and winning, twice in a row, against Wallace Smith (9-2-1, 0 KOs) and Danny Webb (15-6-2, 6 KOs) and as such his chin could pose a problem for him in the long run. Mouzons sole loss came by way of a split decision against Joe Brown (21-1, 13 KOs, ranked #11) and the draw against Emile De Cristo (10-8-4, 1 KO) in Mouzons pro debut.
Round 1: Mouzon is moving around, flicking punches at DeJong and landing the occasional quick shot. 10-9 Wesley Mouzon
Round 2: Mouzon smothers all of DeJongs attempts to attack with a clinch, but for the most part he is just moving around DeJong who attempts to cut off the ring. A hard round too call as neither really got anything off. 20-19 Wesley Mouzon
Round 3: DeJong manages to cut the ring off and land a big right, the best punch of the fight. DeJong jumps at him, which was a bad decision as Mouzons great counter-punching comes alive and a left hook to the body and then a three punch combo lands. Mouzon works the body as he sees an opportunity to tire DeJong. Mouzon is hurting DeJong with these body shots, and the occasional punch to the head. DeJong staggers back to a corner as Mouzon keeps landing. A hook to the body followed by a big right hand up top sends DeJong to the floor. DeJong can't get up.
Wesley Mouzon KO 3 Matthew DeJong
Mouzon showed that he punishes you if you get over-confident, and improves to 22-1-1 with 8 knockouts. "Chocolate Blur" is still #1 in the lightweight division.
