In the inaugural installment of MVP’s Most Valuable Prospects, Ashton ‘H2O’ Sylve demonstrated why he is one of the most electrifying young fighters by defeating Adam Kipenga by unanimous decision (80-72 x3).
Sylve controlled the fight from start to finish, in his first ever fight to go the distance, delivering a barrage of blows to the Tanzanian Southpaw for the full eight rounds.
The co-main event featured Kevin Brown vs. Julian “Quiet Storm” Smith for the WBA Super Lightweight Continental Americas Title. Kevin Brown won the title by unanimous decision (96-94, 96-94, 98-92).
Smith fought hard through all ten rounds in an action packed bout. In a heavyweight battle Lorenzo Medina defeated Angel Napoles by unanimous decision (58-56, 58-56, 58-56), while Bryce Henry took down Jamar Pemberton in the broadcast opener by unanimous decision in a tightly contested match (38-37, 38-37, 38-37).
