By Albert Castillo

The best fight of the night saw Miguel Berchelt (32-1,
28 KO’s) in a war with Takashi Miura (31-4-2, 24 KO’s)
with the WBC World super featherweight title on the
line.
A short left hook from Berchelt put Miura down in the
first. But Miura bounced back to land some shots of his
own. However, the night belonged to Berchelt. His
movement, balance, and ring generalship accompanied with
stiff jabs, solid right hands, and sharp left hooks
proved to be too much for the Japanese warrior.

Berchelt Puts On Boxing Display
Against Tough Miura |
|
Miguel Berchelt (32-1, 28
KO's) retained the WBC Super Featherweight Title with a
12-round unanimous decision over Takashi Miura (31-4-2,
24 KO's). Berchelt won nearly every round by being
smart, keeping his distance and landing often without
getting hit. Berchelt would score a flash knockdown in
the first with a perfect left hook. Mirua, on the other
hand, was looking for a knockout the entire night. Miura
would land a few big punches, but most of his haymakers
missed wildly. Berchelt commanded the entire fight, but
the heart and determination displayed by Miura will not
be forgotten. Final scores were 116-111, 119-108 and
120-109.

Sullivan Barrera (20-1, 14

Jr. (23-2, 19 KO's). Barrera would suffer a knockdown
near the end of the first round by a big left hook to
the head, a round he appeared in control. Barrera was
hurt, but very game and pressed the action immediately
after, and throughout all remaining rounds. The results
had Barrera winning every single round. Smith was just
not in the fight at all, trying to find another big
punch to land that never came. Even referee Jack Reiss
spoke to Smith between rounds to make sure he was ok
because he was not fighting like himself. Final scores
were 96-93 and 97-92 twice.
