  Undefeated Lightweight prospect Luis Torres pounded out a hard-fought ten round unanimous decision over veteran Diego Andrade to win the inaugural World Cup Boxing Series (WCBS) Lightweight tournament on Thursday night at the Palenque de la Expo in Sonora, MX. There were some heated exchanges early in the bout with Andrade trying to force the fight on the inside and make the fight difficult on the taller and younger Torres. Among the veteran tactics that Andrade implemented throughout the fight, he would raise his hands and roust the crowd whenever Torres would land a clean punch.   While such tactics are obviously designed to goad an opponent into rushing forward recklessly to theoretically allow the fighter using such ploys to try and take advantage, Torres did not take the bait and spent much of the fight gradually out working the more experienced Andrade. Although Andrade remained in the fight and seemed to win the appreciation of the crowd in attendance, he was not able...

  The sport of Boxing is no stranger to tournament style competition. While many likely associate the idea of Boxing being contested under tournament style formats with the amateur ranks with several tournaments taking place yearly and of course, Olympic competition occurring every four years, the professional side of the sport has seen its share of tournament concepts as well. While many of these tournaments have served a purpose of unifying world championships in a given weight division, often accompanied by significant elements of hype by the respective promoters and television networks involved, there have also been reality television style competitions such as The Contender and The Next Great Champ series that did serve as a way to introduce several fighters to a more casual audience and in the case of Sergio Mora, the winner of The Contender's first season, an eventual world champion, who since retirement has gone on to become one of the sport's respected expert commentat...

  Super-Middleweight Manuel Gallegos scored a fifth round stoppage of veteran Gabriel Lopez on Thursday night at the Auditorio Benito Juarez  in Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico. Gallegos used his taller height to keep Lopez at distance where Lopez had trouble getting on the inside and being able to close the distance consistently. In round four, Gallegos dropped Lopez with a left hook to the body that sent Lopez down on his knees in a neutral corner.
