Boxing results, November 24 - 30: stacked week has a little of everything, from everywhere

Four more results columns to go before retirement...check out the previous one here.

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

Manny Pacquiao UD12 Brandon Rios (120-108, 119-109, 118-110)

I actually covered this card last week, because it was Saturday night as far as Americans were concerned, but as it took place in China it was actually a Sunday morning to afternoon event. So here it is again...in less detail.

Evgeny Gradovich TKO9 Billy Dib

Andy Ruiz Jr TKO4 Tor Hamer

Zou Shiming UD6 Juan Tozcano (60-54, 60-54, 60-52)

Felix Verdejo UD6 Petchsamuthr Duanaaymukdahan (60-53, 60-53, 60-53)

Rex Tso TKO1 Susu Sithjadaeng

Kuok Kun Ng UD4 You-Jie Zeng (40-36, 40-36, 40-36)

Fox Sports

Antonio Tarver TKO4 Mike Sheppard

Interim NABA heavyweight title

Randy Caballero TKO7 Jessy Cruz

Thomas Williams Jr UD10 Yusaf Mack

Luis Ortiz KO1 Alex Gonzales

A highlight of this whopping 1 rounder was shown during the Tarver-Sheppard fight. It's not a coincidence that Ortiz is the #1 ranked heavyweight according to the WBA and the title that Tarver just picked up is WBA affiliated. With the WBA regular world title now vacant you might see Tarver-Ortiz down the line for the belt.

2013-11-27 Allphones Arena, Olympic Park, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia

ESPN3.com (USA) / MainEvent PPV (Australia)

Anthony Mundine RTD6 Shane Mosley

Scott Christ recapped the "action" here. Mundine acquired the vacant WBA International light middleweight title.

Luke Turner UD4 Blake Ferguson (39-37, 39-37, 39-37)

Renold Quinlan UD8 Joseph Kwadjo (79-74, 77-75, 78-74)

This was easily the best fight on the entire card. Quinlan was put through the ringer but emerged 6-0 against the now 21-7, former intercontinental super middleweight champion Kwadjo.

David Aloua TKO3 Mosese Sorovi

Sam Ah See UD4 Daniel Roy Maxwell (40-36, 40-36, 40-36)

Jorge Sebastian Heiland KO12 Billi Facundo Godoy

In this thrilling rematch for the WBC International middleweight title, Heiland got his revenge. In the opening rounds Godoy timed Heiland with right hands and eventually dropped him at the end of round 3 (although with a left). Heiland was stunned again at the end of round 4 but stayed on his feet. Honestly it's hard to say if Heiland definitively won any of the first 6 rounds. But things began to look a lot better for Heiland after the first 5. All of a sudden it's Godoy on the canvas in round 7 (courtesy of a short right hand).

Then Godoy bounced right back and made the 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th stanzas debatable. Round 9 was particularly brutal.  I don't know what the official scorecards were going into the final round but Godoy was potentially well ahead despite the even nature of the fight. Heiland, seemingly aware of such a possibility, went for broke in round 12 and scored a knockdown off a left hook out of the southpaw stance. Godoy beat the count but the referee ruled him unfit to continue. Godoy protested the questionable yet fair stoppage. It was a dramatic ending to a great fight.

A trilogy could (hopefully) be in the works.

Mauro Maximiliano Godoy UD6 Miguel Leonardo Caceres

Diego Alberto Chaves UD6 Anibal Daniel Pieroni

2013-11-30 Halle Monconseil, Tours, Indre-et-Loire, France

Rafa Martin - KO Verdun

Myriam Lamare PTS8 Loli Munoz

Apparently Lamare changed her mind about retiring. She's 38 now but she's only lost to 2 of the greatest fighters in female boxing history. She can still make another successful world title run, but she should stay away from Cecilia Braekhus, unless of course the retirement check is worth it. I'd suggest she pick up the IBF female welterweight title beforehand. Braekhus has the other "main ones" that you know about, although the list of recognized world titles is actually much longer in female boxing. The "big 4" arrived to the dance late. Remind me to rank the most relevant sanctioning bodies in women's boxing someday...

2013-11-30 Auditorio del Estado, Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico

Azteca 7

Zolani Tete KO10 Juan Carlos Sanchez Jr (2:43)

Tete pulled off the upset in this foul-filled IBF super flyweight title eliminator. Sanchez waited too long before attempting to beat the final 10-count. Had he been a second quicker, who knows, maybe he survives the round and Tete would be disqualified in the next.

Jorge Paez Jr TKO7 Ivan Hernandez

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

2013-11-30 Deportivo Agustín Ramos Millan, Toluca, México, Mexico

Televisa (Mexico) / Fox Deportes (USA)

Zulina Munoz DQ8 Marisa Johanna Portillo

Portillo was disqualified for excessive holding. Munoz retained her WBC female super flyweight title.

Janeth Perez SD10 Galina Koleva Ivanova (98-82, 92-98, 98-93)

Perez was lucky to pick up the vacant IBF female bantamweight title because quite frankly she was out boxed. Judges Fabricio Lopez and Richard Ocasio should be ashamed of themselves for only giving Ivanova 2 rounds.

Esau Herrera UD8 Bruno Sandoval

Armando Santos TKO2 Juan Jimenez

This highlight reel KO caused the Spanish commentary to momentarily turn into English.

2013-11-30 Arena Panama Al Brown, Colon City, Panama

TV Max

Celestino Caballero TKO2 Jimmy Aburto

I haven't seen Caballero look this good in several years. Then again I haven't seen Caballero fight an opponent this hopeless in even longer. In any event my man C-Baller is back in the world title picture after picking up the vacant WBC Latino featherweight title in this bout.

Javier Prieto UD12 Vicente Mosquera (115-112, 116-111, 115-112)

I'm not sure why this was a massive upset, but, apparently people thought about Mosquera in his world championship days...all the way back in 2006. On this night the younger Prieto outhustled him and lifted the vacant WBC Silver lightweight title.

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

2013-11-30 Araneta Coliseum, Barangay Cubao, Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines

ABS-CBN (Philippines) / BeIn (USA)

Donnie Nietes KO3 Sammy Gutierrez

Nietes dominated and retained his WBO light flyweight title. Supposedly a rematch with Moises Fuentes is next. Their original fight ended in a disputed draw.

Merlito Sabillo D12 Carlos Buitrago (113-115, 115-113, 114-114)

In a battle of BLH top 10 ranked strawweights, rated right next to each other, no one emerged victorious. The fight was difficult to score but the draw was completely fair. Buitrago played the role of the counter puncher while Sabillo was the harder punching aggressor. Ultimately Sabillo defended his WBO minimumweight title.

Milan Melindo UD12 Jose Alfredo Rodriguez (118-110, 118-109, 119-109)

Vacant WBO International flyweight title

Jason Pagara UD10 Vladimir Baez (98-91, 98-90, 99-90)

WBO International light welterweight title

AJ Banal UD10 Manuel Gonzalez Garcia (98-92, 98-92, 100-90)

These scorecards were probably wider than they should have been...

Russian light heavyweight champion Lepikhin improved to 15-0 with the help of a well-placed left hook to the body.

Movsur Yusupov UD12 Vladimir Idranyi (118-110, 120-108? [announced 120-110], 117-112)

Light heavyweight prospect Yusupov progressed to 6-0. Apparently to celebrate his UBO Youth world championship, confetti rained down and Queen's rendition of "We Are The Champions" was played. That was totally appropriate. Yusupov has done it all. Time to retire and go out on top.

Nikki Adler UD10 Zane Brige (97-93, 97-93, 98-92)

Adler improved to 11-0, defended her World Boxing Federation female super middleweight title, and added the vacant WBC female super middleweight title to her collection. The WBF title she defended was also vacant before her previous bout, also against Brige. And if you think that's bad, this is actually the 3rd time that they have fought.

Anyways, maybe Adler will be cannon fodder for Christina Hammer someday. Hammer moves freely between 160 and 168 because the talent pool is extremely thin. Claressa Shields, still a little girl as far as I'm concerned, would destroy most of these grown women so very badly. Can't say I blame her for staying amateur and picking up another Olympic Gold medal in 2016. Hammer-Shields is literally the only female fight I'm looking forward to from 160 on up in all of the foreseeable future... The days of Wolfe, Ali, and Ragosina are long gone. And guess what? None of them ****ing fought each other.

But I digress...

Apti Ustarkhanov UD10 Josef Obeslo (100-90, 100-90, 100-90)

Ustarkhanov won some kind of intercontinental light heavyweight championship. His record is now a staggering 4-1-1.

Viskhan Murzabekov TKO9 Uladzislau Mahdanau

Unbeaten welterweight prospect Murzabekov improved to 7-0 and got to take home a shiny belt and a trophy. I think the inscriptions are in Russian so I really have no idea what they read.

Ilyas Kelimatov KO1 Anton Petukhov

Dmitry Kudryashov KO1 Zack Mwekassa

Unbeaten cruiserweight prospect Kudryashov picked up his 12th straight KO in as many wins. The man is very heavy handed and his left hook is no joke.

Jeff Lacy TKO3 Martin Verdin

The former IBF super middleweight champion is back! "Left Hook" Lacy is back! The knockout sensation is back!

No, not really. With a record of 20-16-2 at the age of 37 with the vast majority of his bouts taking place in Louisiana, what was Verdin supposed to do besides get knocked out? And he wasn't even really knocked out. His corner just threw in the towel. The referee wasn't close to stopping it either. Fans booed.

Such is boxing.

Travis Kauffman TKO1 Jason Barnett

World Boxing Union Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship!!!! This card was filled with mismatches aside from 2 bouts but it was all entertaining. Not much to say but worth a watch.

Frank Santos De Alba TKO4 Osnel Charles

Evincii Dixon SD6 Rafael Montalvo

Emil Rodriguez D4 Travis Thompson

This was a good draw and a good fight. Rounds 3 and 4 were fantastic as far as pure entertainment goes. Both guys were hurt. A rematch has been signed.

GFL.TV

Johan Perez MD12 Paul Spadafora (115-113, 114-114, 117-111)

I scored the bout 115-113 for Perez but I was OK with all of the scorecards. Perez picked up the interim WBA light welterweight title and Spaddy was denied 49 wins without a loss, much like Larry Holmes and Dariusz Michalczewski before him. 49-0 is a sacred mark, ya dig?

At least ever since Brian Nielsen violated it... Story to come on this later...

Wilkins Santiago D6 Eric Draper (58-56, 56-58, 57-57)

Morgan Fitch D6 Darnell Boone (55-58, 57-56, 56-56)

Fitch was down at the end of round 3 and the start of round 4. But then Boone took his foot off the gas and let Fitch back into the fight.

Dustin Craig Echard MD4 Thomas Hanshaw (38-38, 39-37, 39-37)

The new quit total is 191. Now I'm wondering if we really will reach 200...

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.
