Knockout At Chumash Casino
Saturday night at the Chumash Casino Resort and broadcast
globally on UFC FIGHT PASS, WBC #2 Ranked Super Welterweight
Serhii ‘El Flaco’ Bohachuk, (23-1, 23 KOs), continued his
knockout streak through the division with a stunning, one
punch, first round knockout (2:32) of World Title
Challenger, Patrick Allotey, (42-5, 32 KO), of Accra, Ghana.
Presented by Tom Loeffler’s 360 Promotions, Bohachuk vs.
Allotey headlined another installment of the acclaimed
Hollywood Fight Nights series.
Said Loeffler, “Serhii continued to prove why he’s the most
exciting fighter in the super welterweight division. He’s
ready for a world title fight now.”
“The entire card was full of action-packed fights, the crowd
here at Chumash Casino was tremendous and we look forward to
returning in the future.”
In the evening’s co-feature, Southern California favorite
Omar Trinidad, (13-0-1, 10 KOs), continued to shine with a
sixth-round stoppage of Roberto Meza, (15-4-1, 8 KOs).
Dropping Meza in the third and fifth round, Trinidad earned
the victory with a dominant performance as the fight was
stopped at the 1:16 mark of the sixth round.
In a battle of undefeated light heavyweights, Umar Dzambekov,
(6-0, 5 KOs), of Austria, defeated Kwame Ritter, (10-1, 8
KOs), over eight rounds. Scores were 79-73, 79-73 and 78-74.
The hard-hitting southpaw took control of the fight after an
even first two rounds using an aggressive body attack to
score throughout the second half of the fight.
Junior welterweight Cain Sandoval, (10-0, 10 KOs), fighting
for the second time under the 360 Promotions’ banner,
stopped the valiant Jose Marruffo, (14-12-2, 2 KOs), in the
sixth round (2:28). Sandoval dropped Marruffo at the end of
the second round and earned the stoppage victory from a
barrage of unanswered punches in the sixth stanza of their
scheduled eight-rounder.
Bantamweight veteran Narek Abgaryan, (16-1, 6 KOs), made his
long-awaited return to action with a sixth round (0:41)
knockout of Manuel Manzo, (9-8-3, 4 KOs) in a fight
scheduled for eight rounds. Abgaryan used excellent counter
punching throughout and forced the referee’s stoppage from a
multiple punch combination which badly hurt Manza.

21-year-old Daniel ‘Chucky’ Barrera, (3-0-1, 2 KOs), knocked
out Eduardo Alvarez, (0-3-1) in the first round (1:42) of a
