Last night on the "Diamonds In The Rough" bill put on by Peter Manfredo in association with Let's Get It On Promotions at the Freeport IBEW Hall in Dorchester, MA, a raft of prospects were all successful in this Boston area show.
Super middleweight Edwin Rodriguez, 6-0 (5), of Worcester, MA kept his unbeaten record intact by stopping Anthony Cannon, 4-9 (1), of Atlanta at 1:07 of the fourth round.
Whitman, MA middleweight Mark DeLuca, 5-0 (3), was taken the distance by seasoned campaigner Anthony Osbourne, 7-27-1 (2), but "The Italian Bazooka" won a decision at the end of six rounds.
Visiting featherweight Robert DaLuz, 11-11-2 (9), of Jacksonville, FL made his Massachusetts vacation a happy one by posting a six round decision over local Lynn, MA fighter Castulo Gonzalez, 9-6 (3).
It was a bad night for Ohio fighters as heavyweight Tyler Hinkey, 3-0-1 (2), of Reno, NV put in a four round decision over Akron man Mike Miller, 3-11-2 (3), while featherweight Jose Sanchez, 3-0 (1), of Providence, RI was also a winner after four rounds, decisioning Harvey Phillips, 0-5 (0), of Cleveland.
It was a good pro debut for light welter Jesus Caro, 1-0 (1), of Providence, RI, as he stopped opponent Levaniel King, 0-2 (0), of Reidsville, NC
