Perez bests Mauras, Ayala returns, Williams wins & more


Khiary Gray-Pitts scored a 1st rd KO
20 rounds to Victory for Joseph Chip Perez
Ringside Report from Mohegan Sun Arena
By Alex Pierpaoli
Photos By Sean Laydon



On Saturday night Joseph "Chip" Perez of Hartford, CT, hammered out a unanimous decision win over Agustine Mauras of Lawrence, MA, in their third fight and the first with a definitive victor. Having boxed two six round draws in 2014, first in July and then again in September, Perez and Mauras were matched a third time in hopes of finally determining a winner over the 8 round distance. Pitting young prospects against each other is something that occurs too infrequently in professional prizefighting; too often prospects engage in predictable mismatches in which little is learned and all that is showcased is one fighter's dominance. But hopefully, the lesson learned from the Perez-Mauras trilogy is that when matched against each other, young prospects deliver intriguing style clashes, entertaining fights and learning opportunities that can improve both fighters along the way to greater accomplishments. And on Saturday night, although a winner was clearer to determine in the main event this time, it became obvious Perez and Mauras would make for an entertaining bout each time they fought. And if this model used by promoter CESBoxing has proved anything it is that a rematch in the co-featured bout of the night, Abiague-Crespo, which ended in a split-decision, would likely be just as entertaining the second time around as it was the first.

Joseph Chip Perez, 132 1/2lbs, of Hartford, CT would probably match-up well with Agustine Mauras, 133lbs, of Lawrence, MA, if they fought 3 more times. Their styles just seem to mesh well,

Twitter recap from ringside at Mohegan Sun

Joseph "Chip" Perez
Chip Perez beats Agustine Mauras in 3rd encounter
More regional action from Uncasville, CT
Twitter Recap

Here is a chronological recounting of our live-tweets 

from ringside, made slightly more grammatical and a 

little bit less hashtaggie.

You can follow us on Twitter here

First bout from @MoheganSun is up now, Heavies, 4 rounds, Zhang Zhilei of Zhoukou, China (out of Las Vegas) vs. a late sub #Boxing
that was quick, Ref. Danny Schiavone waves off the fight with Zhilei landing heavily and his opponent in a full retreat. TKO at 1:10 of Rd 1


Next up are Junior Welters, 4 rounds, Kin Moy of Cambridge, MA vs. Wang Zhimin of Ningo, China who is making his pro debut #boxing
No feeling out round for these 2, straight into landing heavy leather, Zhimin got the better of rd 1 but Moy scored with nice mean uppercut.
Moy is throwing shots with bad intentions but Zhimin is smiling at him, able to stay just out of range #boxing
After 4 rds this looked like all Zhimin's fight. Gutsy effort from Kin Moy who never stopped trying despite eating heavy rights throughout.
Bout number 2 goes to the cards, the scores are 40-36, 39-37 & 39-36 all in favor of Wang Zhimin who wins his professional debut #Boxing
