Late result: L. Pero defeats J. Thompson

Lenier Peró W10 Jordan Thompson ... Cuban heavyweight Lenier Peró grinded out a unanimous decision over Britain’s Jordan Thompson at the Caribe Royale in Orlando, Florida over the weekend. Peró had to dig deep against an opponent who refused to give him an easy night. But as the rounds ticked by, the Cuban’s poise and class separated him, earning a scorecard win by tallies of 96–93 (twice) and 97–93. It was a spirited main event, with both big men having their moments and trading momentum through stretches of the fight. Peró’s sharper execution and ability to bank rounds proved decisive. Peró stays unbeaten at 13–0 with 8 knockouts, while Thompson slips to 15–2 with 12 wins by stoppage.
