Booker TKO 1.

Interestingly, the veteran fought his previous fight quite recently — December 22 – lost in an 8-round fight.

Hidalgo, Texas, USA. In the main fight of the show, the local ex-champion Austin Trout (36-5-1, 18 KOs) passed the Mexican in the first middleweight (up to 69.9 kg)
Jose Sanchez (20-3-1, 12 KOs).

The fight went all the way. The judges unanimously gave all the rounds to Trout, who immediately after the verdict for some reason challenged the WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo, whom he lost on points in 2016.

Trout UD 8.

Interestingly, Trout recently announced his transition to fisticuffs – signed a contract With Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC).

Also, the ex-interim champion in several versions of the featherweight (up to 57.2 kg) from Colombia, Oscar Escandon (27-6, 18 KO) performed as part of the show – he dropped, but did not prematurely
Angel Tames (7-4, 6 KOs) from Mexico.

The score of the judges: twice 59-54 and 60-53.

Escandon UD 6.

In August last year he lost by horrendous knockoutsince then he has not entered the ring.
