Last night at the Citizens Bank Arena in Ontario, California, WBC Cabofe Heavyweight Champion, Manuel "El Toro" Quezada, 25-4 (13), continued his winning ways by defeating Teke Oruh, 14-2-1, via unanimous decision, making it 14 consecutive victories.
Quezada pressed the action from the opening round, forcing Oruh to fight going backward. Oruh tried to establish his jab, but could not find his rhythm as Quezada found a spot for his occasional left hook.
In the latter half of the bout, Quezada went to the body while maintaining his lead. The scorecards read, 98-92 across the board all in favor for Quezada.
"This victory gets me one step closer to fighting an opponent in the top 20," said Quezada. "I felt I fought a smart fight. I want to keep stepping up in competition. It's time to get back in the gym and continue working hard."
This bout was promoted by Goossen Tutor Promotions in association with the Tachi Palace Casino.
