The Velasquez Twins, Carlos Ivan and Juan Carlos, continued their winning ways as they both recorded victories this past weekend on the Casamayor vs Katsidis card at the Morongo Casino in Cabazon, CA on Saturday.
Carlos Ivan improved to 7-0 (6) with a battle tested six round unanimous decision win over Manuel Sarabia, a veteran of 48 fights. Carlos used his speed and accuracy in rout to victory as the judges score cards read 60-54 twice and 59-55.
Having knocked out his previous six opponents, Carlos Ivan went the distance for the first time showing he has the ability to go rounds if need be. “I’m happy with my performance,” he said. “I believe I dominated the entire fight from the opening bell. Sarabia is a tough fighter, and I did what I had to do to come out victorious.”
Juan Carlos cruised to a unanimous decision over Thomas Bernal improving to 7-0 (4). Juan chose to keep the fight inside as he landed powerful body blows while applying pressure. The score cards read 40-36 across the board. “With every win I’m getting more comfortable in the ring,” said Juan Carlos. “I’m learning a lot in each fight. I can’t wait to get back in the gym and work hard for the next fight.”
