Results From Sugar Land "Fights Under The Lights"
Last night, Bobby Harrison’s BiYu Promotions presented
“Fights Under the Lights” live from Constellation Field in
Sugar Land, Texas.
Hall of Famers Roy Jones Jr. and Al Bernstein provided
expert commentary and analysis alongside Hector Camacho Jr.
and undefeated female professional boxer Jewry Rodriguez,
bringing viewers all the action from ringside. Adding to the
excitement of the night, a $5,000 Knockout of the Night
bonus was awarded to Mauricio Quintanilla for his standout
stoppage victory.
In the 10-round main event. Izaiah Dent (11-0, 9 KOs)
remained undefeated with a split decision victory over
Chavon Stillwell (10-1, 8 KOs), capturing the WBA/NABA light
heavyweight title and handing Stillwell the first defeat of
his professional career. Both fighters had their moments
throughout the competitive bout, but Dent was the busier
fighter and did enough to earn the victory. The judges
scored the fight 98-92 and 96-94 for Dent, while the third
judge had it 96-95 for Stillwell.
“I knew I had to stay active and keep the pressure on him,”
Dent said. “He came to fight and made me work for every
round, but I believed I did enough to get the win. Becoming
a champion and giving him his first loss makes this victory
even more special. I’m only getting started.”
In the eight round co-main event, Jayden Britton (10-0, 6
KOs) remained undefeated with a unanimous decision victory
over Bruno Pola Ruiz (11-5-2, 9 KOs) in a scheduled
eight-round super middleweight bout. Britton consistently
landed the cleaner shots throughout the fight, earning
scorecards of 80-72, 78-74, and 77-75, all in his favor.
With the victory, Britton captured the WBA/NABA super
middleweight title.
“I felt like I controlled the fight from start to finish,”
Britton said. “He was a tough opponent, but I stayed
composed, landed the cleaner shots, and stuck to the game
plan. Winning this title means a lot, but this is only the
beginning. I’m ready for whatever comes next.”
“Launching CombatVisionTV with Fights Under the Lights is a
special moment for us,” said Bobby Harrison of BiYu
Promotions. “Our vision is to create a platform that gives
fighters greater exposure while bringing boxing fans
exciting, competitive fights from around the world. To

even more meaningful. This is just the beginning for
CombatVisionTV and BiYu Promotions.”
