Cristobal Arreola Wins Fight – but not happy with his performance... saying that he should have knocked out his opponent Friday Ahunanya, but just couldn't pull the trigger. He compared his performance to Haye, and joked that his toes were messed up. Arreola may get to fight Wladimir Klitschko before it's all said and done.
Paul Williams gets controversial win. His opponent Erislandy Lara landed more, and better, shots but the judges gave the fight to Williams. Williams got pretty beat up, and Lara had a large knot on the left side of his face. Turns out that he suffered a small facial fracture. Williams hopes to have 1 or 2 more bouts before his retirement, one of which he hopes to have a rematch against Martinez.
Brandon Rios had a quick fight on Saturday – he finished off opponent Antillon just before the end of the 3rd round of an action-packed fight. Rios knocked down Antillon twice in the 3rd round, and referee David Mendoza stopped the fight just 11 seconds before the end of the 3rd. Rios's next fight may be against Mexican champ Marco Antonio Barrera... and there is already talk of a Rios vs. Pacquiao fight, but that will be farther into the future.
