Acapulco, MX- Giovanni Segura, 108, Bell Gardens, CA TKO 3 Walter Tello, 108, Puerto Armuelles, Panama. (WBA 108 lb. title) Segura (23-1-1, 19 KOs) and Tello (14-4, 6 KOs) went at each other with reckless abandon at first bell with Segura’s power stopping the gutsy challenger at 1:56 of round three.
Urbano Antillon, 136.5, Maywood, CA TKO 3 Luis Arceo, 136.5, San Ysidro, CA. Antillon (27-1, 20 KOs) takes care of business stopping trail-horse Arceo (22-10-2, 15 KOs) at 2:25 of the 3rd round due to a cut to Arceo, which was ruled to be caused by a punch.

PACMAN SPARMATE TOPS ESPN 2 CARD
Cleveland, OH- Shawn Porter, 152 lbs, Akron, OH UD 10 Russell Jordan, 152, Rochester, NY. Porter (13-0, 10 KOs) fighting in front of his fans had all he could handle with the taller (by 7 inches!) but outmatched Jordan (15-7, 10 KOs). After ten competitive rounds scorecards read 97-92 twice and an outrageous 100-89. A point deduction for losing his mouthpiece in round nine made what should’ve been a close decision even worse.
Lanard Lane, 144, Philadelphia, PA UD 8 Martin Tucker, 144, Toledo, OH. Lane (11-0, 7 KOs) used his power and activity to clearly beat a durable Tucker (7-5, 3 KOs) by scores of 77-75, 78-74, and 80-71.
