Canela Boxeo results: Luis Torres wins

Luis Torres W10 Cesar Gutierrez... Luis “Koreano” Torres (17-0, 10 KOs) outboxed and outclassed previously unbeaten Cesar “Torito” Gutierrez (14-1-2, 5 KOs) in an all-Mexican lightweight bout held in Ciudad Obregon, Sonora. The 20 year-old Torres displayed all his skills in a relatively one-sided fight against Gutierrez, in which Torres won nine of ten rounds in the non-title fight. Torres was fighting in his hometown. Torres scored one knockdown during the fight.

Colombian knockout artist Kevin Piedrahita (7-1, 7 KOs) stopped previously undefeated Marco Moreno Cota (8-1, 6 KOs) in the fifth round by way of a technical knockout in the co-feature. Cota, age 20, was a standout Mexican amateur boxer.  “I told everyone that Cota versus Piedrahita would be the ‘Fight of the Night’ and it was everything we could have asked for and more,” promoter Guy Taylor noted. “Thank you to both me for daring to be great and giving a performance that fans will be talking about for a while.”
 
Late replacement Ernesto Garcia (5-2, 5 KOs) upset his previously undefeated Honduran opponent, Gerardo Sanchez (6-1, 3 KOs), with a shocking opening-round stoppage in a light flyweight attraction.
 
Cota’s younger brother, 17 year-old featherweight Alejandro Cota (3-1, 1 KOs), also suffered his first loss as a professional, dropping a four-round unanimous decision to Alex Fuentas Borbon (3-0). Cota was also a standout amateur boxer.
 
In the opener, Pedro Penunuri (3-0, 1 KO) took a four-round unanimous decision from Jose Alfredo Martinez (2-1, 0 KOs).
