Sosa stops Rhodes in seven

Jason Sosa TKO7 Haskell Lydell Rhodes... Jason Sosa, a Camden, New Jersey native, stopped Haskell Lydell Rhodes (27-4-1, 13 KOs)in seven rounds to win his third in a row in front of 1,723 fans at the Liacouras Center. Sosa, a former WBA regular title holder, scored three knockdowns in all, with Rhodes’ corner indicating their fighter had enough. Sosa (23-3-4, 16 KOs) lost back-to-back bouts to Vasiliy Lomachenko and Yuriorkis Gamboa in 2017, but with the dominating win over Rhodes, he thrust himself back into the world title conversation. “It was pretty satisfying. I think we did everything we were supposed to do tonight,” Sosa said. “There’s room for improvement, but we’re a top contender now once again. We never left. I need a title. I want to call out Miguel Berchelt and get that WBC belt. “Don’t forget about me. I’m here. I ain’t going nowhere. I’m a warrior, baby. I come to fight. I put on good fights. The fans see me and appreciate me. I come out every night and do it for them.” source: top rank
