The co-main event featured former world champions Javier “El Abejón” Fortuna (35-2-1, 24 KOs) from the Dominican Republic knocking out Argentina’s Jesús Andrés Cuellar (29-4, 22 KOs) at the 2:01 mark of the second round in their super featherweight showdown. Fortuna knocked down Cuellar in both the first and second stanzas. Shortly following the second knockdown, the referee had seen enough, calling a stop to the action. “I expected a tough fight,” said Fortuna. “I wanted to be very active in this fight and win it for the Republic! “This being a WBC eliminator bout, we expect a shot at (Devin) Haney next,” concluded Fortuna.
