Capital One Arena, Washington, USA. In the limit of the first middle weight (up to 69.9 kg), the American prospect Vito Melnicki Jr. (14-1, 9 KOs) beat the native of Mexico
Omar Rosales (9-2-1, 5 KOs).
The battle frankly did not work out, as it turned out to be one-sided. Melnicki beat, dropped the opponent in the 3rd round. At the start of the next three minutes, Rosales’ corner withdrew his fighter from the fight.

Melnicki TKO 4.
In the super light weight limit (up to 63.5 kg) to an American Brendan Lee
(27-0, 23 KOs) still hesitant to raise the level of the opposition – he beat the 37-year-old journeyman
Diego Gonzalo Luque (21-11-2, 10 KOs) from Argentina, who has not won since 2017, and last year almost hit the fighter on points with a record of 9 wins with 43 losses.
An absolutely pointless fight was stopped by the referee in the 4th three-minute period after Lee began to invest in punches.
.@brandun_lee‘s non-stop corner attack leads to Luque’s throwing in the towel, stopping the fight. #LeeLuque

Whether TKO 4.
In the welterweight limit (up to 66.7 kg) American Kishon Williams (11-1-1, 2 KOs) did not notice the resistance of the Argentine gatekeeper Gustavo Vittori (27-12-1, 12 KOs) in an almost one-sided fight.
Judges score: 80-72, 80-72 and 79-73.
Keeshawn Williams controlled the fight from the opening bell by using his jab, and putting together combinations like this to easily defeat Gustavo David Vittori by UD. #WilliamsVittori

Williams UD 8.
38-year-old ex-world champion and conqueror of two weight divisions Lamont Peterson (35-6-1, 17 KOs) returned to boxing for some reason (he hasn’t competed since 2019 after losing to Kazakhstani Sergey Lipinets) and in the super lightweight limit (up to 63.5 kg) sensationally flew in a technical knockout to a 40-year-old
Michael Ogundo (17-16, 14 KOs) from Kenya.
Peterson was knocked down in the 4th round, after which a decision was made in his corner to surrender early.
Ogundo TKO 4.
