The 3rd round saw Algieri dig vicious body shots into Jargal, hurting him badly with a perfectly placed left hook to the liver but Jargal hung on until the end of the round. Jargal bounced back well in the 4th round and started to land crisp shots to the head and body of Algieri. From then on it was a war of attrition as both boxers landed hard shots and traded freely much to the crowds delight. Algieri opend a cut over Jargal’s left eye in the 7th round with a perfectly placed left hook. The sold out crowd stood in appreciation as the bell for the final round sounded and both fighters didn’t disappoint as they fought hard right to the end much to the crowds delight.

Bogar and Seldin got right into it trading hard blows in the 1st round with Bogar momentarily stunning Seldin midway through the round and nearly closing his left eye. Seldin came out in the 2nd round like a house on fire as he and Bogar went toe to toe driving the large pro Seldin crowd into a frenzy. Seldin landed numerous body shots on Bogar which were hurting the Newark fighter greatly. Seldin was relentless as the 3rd round opened dropping Bogar with a terrific left hook to the body and then finishing him off with an unrelenting assault at end of the 3rd round.
