Undefeated WBC Continental Americas Featherweight champion and number two rated WBC Featherweight contender  Omar Trinidad scored a workmanlike ten round unanimous decision over veteran Mike Plania on Friday night at the Commerce Casino and Hotel in Commerce, CA.

Official scores were: 100-90 (On two scorecards) and 99-91 in favor of Trinidad. Omar Trinidad advances to 18-0-1, with 13 Knockouts. Mike Plania falls to 31-5, with 18 Knockouts.
