Fight recap coming up ...
Brady Jr. outpointed Negrete for decision win
Haven Brady Jr., was tested in his fourth pro fight and ate plenty of clean right hands from over Roberto Negrete, but somehow, all judges scored the fight a shutout for him (40-36).
The 19-year-old featherweight from Georgia sought to outbox Negrete (3-1, 1 KO) from the outside while the Corpus Christi, Texas, native applied nonstop pressure. While Brady (4-0, 3 KOs) was effective with his jab, Negrete, 22, seemed to land the cleaner, harder shots.
Cobb scores KO of the year candidate against Campbell
Antoine Cobb made his pro debut in sensational fashion with a brutal first-round knockout of Jerrion Campbell.
Cobb, 25, of Chicago, Illinois, unleashed an overhand right that sent his foe to the canvas sprawled out with his head resting on the bottom rope. Time of the stoppage was 58 seconds.
Campbell (2-2, 0 KOs) was stopped for the first time as a professional. The 29-year-old native of Germany has lost two in a row.
Mederos wins, doesn't shine
Harley Mederos defeated Deljerro Revello via unanimous decision over four rounds to kick off the Herring-Stevenson undercard.
All three judges scored the fight a shutout, 40-35. The lightweight prospect scored a first-round knockdown but otherwise failed to impress in his second pro fight. Mederos, 21, from Brooklyn, New York, recklessly head-hunted during the bout but surely gained valuable experience.
Mederos (2-0, 1 KO) scored a first-round TKO in his pro debut in August. This fight was expected to be quick work, as well, but Mederos seemed to make little adjustments when it was clear he wasn't going to score the KO.
Revello (0-2), a 25-year-old from Colorado, was knocked out in his pro debut in July.
