Boxing results, November 4 - 9: Hekkie Budler & Nicholas Walters aside, world title defenses prove difficult

Welcome to another results column. Catch up on what you might have missed the previous week here. That week was more interesting than this one, apart from a referee getting punched in the face, so I don't have too much to discuss. But feel free to ask questions, as always. I'll probably get back to you later as I'll soon be driving to Bethlehem, PA for the fight card headlined by Ronald Cruz vs Hector Munoz. I'm not sure how fans not in attendance will be able to see it, but I'll try to capture a few highlights on my own otherwise...

-------------------

2013-11-04 Basket Hall, Krasnodar, Russia

Boytsovskiy Klub

Oleg Maskaev UD10 Danny Williams (98-92?, 98-92?, 98-92?)

Heavyweights last relevant the previous decade "threw down." Both looked extremely washed up, but the former world champion Maskaev had a little more to offer.

Fedor Papazov UD10 Sergio Javier Escobar (99-93?, 99-90?, 99-90?)

Papazov picked up the vacant WBC Baltic lightweight title. Escobar survived a left hook knockdown in round 5 that would have had the average man out cold.

David Avanesyan TKO2 Carlos Leonardo Herrera

Avanesyan picked up the vacant WBC Baltic welterweight title. Herrera got brutally knocked out by a series of heavy shots and was carried out of the ring on a soft stretcher.

Aik Shakhnazaryan UD10 Behzod Nabiev

Ruslan Faifer TKO2 Valentyn Trostyanchuk

Maxim Vlasov TKO6 Artem Redko

-------------------

2013-11-07 Martin's Valley Mansion, Cockeysville (Hunt Valley?), Maryland, USA

Pandafeed.TV

Tori Nelson UD10 Kali Reis (98-92, 98-92, 96-94)

Nelson was at her best when she boxed circles around Reis but there were plenty of spots where the 2 ladies stood and traded bombs. Reis appeared to be the bigger and sharper puncher but didn't let her hands go enough. The fight was competitive and entertaining to the very end. Nelson retained her WIBA welterweight title.

Gerome Quigley TKO3 Damien Butler

Jarrell Miller TKO2 Willie Chisolm

Jeremy Trussell TKO1 On'rey Towns

Brian Meadows KO1 Elmer Vera

-------------------

2013-11-08 Estadio Pedro Estremador, San Carlos de Bariloche, Rio Negro, Argentina

DirecTV

Cesar David Inalef UD10 Martin Antonio Coggi (98.5-92.5, 97.5-93, 97-95.5)

Interim WBC Latino light welterweight title

Sebastian Andres Lujan TKO2 Carlos Saul Chumbita

Interim Argentina (FAB) welterweight title

Sergio Ariel Estrela UD6 Ricardo Walter Arano

-------------------

2013-11-08 Holiday Inn, Pointe-Claire, Quebec, Canada

Way Productions

Saul Mendoza MD8 Baha Laham (76-76, 77-75, 77-75)

Mendoza snapped Laham's unbeaten streak.

Francis Lafreniere TKO3 Eric Roy

Erik Bazinyan TKO4 Ahmad Selemani

Samer Barakat TKO2 Mike Gales

-------------------

2013-11-08 Palestra Giovanni XXIII, Villanova di Guidonia, Lazio, Italy

Cicalone Productions

Manuel Lancia UD10 Gianluca Ceglia (97-94, 97-93, 96-94)

Italy lightweight title

Valerio Ranaldi TKO2 Manuel Grimieri De Ioanni

Andrea Pesce DQ6 Giuseppe Rauseo

Rauseo was finally disqualified after landing a few intentional headbutts and hitting on the break. Earlier he even clocked the referee.

-------------------

2013-11-08 City Academy Sports Centre, Bristol, Avon, United Kingdom

Eurosport

Lee Haskins UD12 Jason Booth (118-111, 117-112, 118-111)

Haskins found a way to struggle, as usual, and it was very entertaining, as usual, but ultimately he retained his BBBofC British bantamweight title. While not quite a ROTY candidate, round 6 stood out to me.

Hughie Fury TKO4 David Gegeshidze

Scott Westgarth KO2 Krystian Nadolski

-------------------

2013-11-09 Convention Center Surman Villa de las Flores, Coacalco, México, Mexico

Televisa

Jessica Chavez D10? Arely Mucino (96-94?, 94-96?, 95-95?)

I haven't actually seen any of this card yet, as I was unable to record it and no one else uploaded it, but it was too important to just ignore. I will get my hands on this eventually... In any event Chavez narrowly retained her WBC Silver female light flyweight title.

Miguel Roman TKO11? Juan Carlos Salgado

Roman pulled off the upset and picked up the vacant WBC International Silver lightweight title.

-------------------

2013-11-09 Elk, Poland

Polsat

Maciej Sulecki UD10 Lukasz Wawrzyczek (98-92?, 98-93?, 99-91?)

Vacant Rupublic of Poland middleweight title

Michal Syrowatka UD6 Franck Petitjean

Michal Cieslak UD4 Mathieu Monnier

Norbert Dabrowski TKO2 Mindia Nozadze

Hakob Karapetyan UD4 Dzianis Makar

Rafal Kaczor UD4 Artsiom Pavinich

-------------------

2013-11-09 Emperors Palace, Kempton Park, Gauteng, South Africa

Super Sport (South Africa) / BeIn (USA) / TyC (Argentina)

Hekkie Budler TKO4 Hugo Hernan Verchelli

IBO / interim WBA minimumweight titles

Thomas Oosthuizen MD12 Ezequiel Osvaldo Maderna (116-112, 114-114, 117-111)

This was another unimpressive performance by Oosthuizen but he retained his IBO super middleweight title fairly. However, this might have been Oosthuizen's last fight as a super middleweight. Golden Gloves CEO Rodney Berman said, "It's quite clear now that Tommy has outgrown the super middleweight division. He just runs out of steam. He's going to be a much stronger light heavyweight. He'll be back in this ring on the 15th of February in a very hard [??? ??? ???] fight, hopefully WBA, one of the titles."

Adam de Moor TKO1 Nkosinathi Tshinavhe

Thabiso Moorosi D6 Thabang Ramagole (59-56, 57-57, 57-57)

-------------------

2013-11-09 Sport Palace, Kiev, Ukraine

Vacant IBO International light heavyweight title

Oleksandr Usyk TKO5 Felipe Romero

Successful pro debut for 2012 heavyweight Olympic Gold Medalist Usyk

Super featherweights

Yoshi Fujii D4 Christian Silva

Jose Carlos Ramirez TKO1 Erick Hernandez Perez

Danny Valdivia TKO2 Matt Dumais

-------------------

2013-11-09 Aviator Sports Complex, Brooklyn, New York, USA

GFL.TV

Gabriel Bracero UD10 Dmitriy Salita (97-92, 99-90, 100-89)

Bracero dominated and dropped Salita en route to a unanimous decision and possibly set himself up for a meeting with Zab Judah or Paulie Malignaggi. The battle for Brooklyn continues...

Heather Hardy TKO2 Ana Laura Gomez

UBF International super bantamweight title

Charlie Ota MD8 Mike Ruiz

Joe Smith Jr SD6 Lamont Williams

Patrick Day D6 Urmat Ryskeldiev

Shemuel Pagan UD4 Jesus Javier Cintron

Chris Galeano UD4 Jamil Gadsden

Junior Younan TKO1 Kenneth Taylor Schmitz

Louis Cruz TKO2 Bryan Acaba

-------------------

2013-11-09 American Bank Center, Corpus Christi, Texas, USA

HBO & TopRank.TV (USA) / BoxNation (UK)

Mikey Garcia KO8 Rocky Martinez

Scott Christ recapped this main event, for the WBO super featherweight title, here.

Nonito Donaire TKO9 Vic Darchinyan

And he recapped the co-main event here.

Demetrius Andrade SD12 Vanes Martirosyan

And he also recapped the intro to the HBO tripleheader, for the vacant WBO light middleweight title, here.

Nicholas Walters TKO4 Alberto Garza

Walters looked impressive against the unimpressive Garza and retained his regular WBA featherweight title. Bob Arum would like to match him with Nonito Donaire next. Given Donaire's performance against Darchinyan further along on this card, I think the unbeaten Walters has a legitimate chance of breaking through in 2014. However, until then, his resume does not merit a top 10 featherweight ranking in the opinion of this writer. Scott Christ's opinion is another story.

Erick De Leon UD4 Jesus Aguinaga

Oscar Valdez TKO5 Jesus Lule

Oscar Cantu UD6 Roberto Ceron

Alex Saucedo TKO3 Steven Hall

Vic Pasillas TKO2 Salvador Perez

If a bout is not mentioned which took place on one of the above cards it’s most likely because I haven’t got around to watching it yet.  In the event that I do watch such a bout at a later time it’s still unlikely I will update this results column.  My columns will be posted once a week, devoted to cards that most casual American boxing fans haven’t seen or heard of.  For available footage of the previously reported bouts follow @sweetboxing on twitter.  You may also email the author of this piece at rgbivins@gmail.com.
