Nearly four years since the last one, Martin Honorio finally rediscovered the win column. The veteran boxer from Mexico snapped a three-fight losing streak with a unanimous decision over Miguel Huerta in their 10-round super lightweight contest  Friday evening at Belasco Theatre in Los Angeles.

Scores were 99-91, 98-92 and 97-93 in the Estrella TV-televised main event (also simulcast live on RingTVLive.com). 

Honorio managed to jump out to a big lead, fending off a late rally and any thought of a dramatic turnaround from the 37-year old southpaw. It was a brave showing by both boxers, each fighting like veterans who desperately needed a win to prevent a continued free fall.

In the end, it was Honorio who managed to put in the better work as the 35-year old advances to 33-9-1 (16KOs). 

Huerta has now come up short in five of his past six starts, falling to 28-14-1 (14KOs). The fight was his first in 50 weeks, with his comeback as a whole not going very well after returning to the ring in 2013 following a five-year break. 

UNDERCARD (ESTRELLA TV)

In the televised co-featureJoet Gonzalez had minimail difficulty in dispatching Marcos 'No Money' Rios in the third round of their matchup of unbeaten super bantamweights.

Three knockdows paved the way for the biggest victory of Gonzalez' young career to date. The 22-year old dropped Rios in the opening round and then scored two more knockdowns in the decisive round three. 

As was the case in the televised opener, body shots were the key to success, with Rios (13-0-1) twice visiting to the canvas in round three after taking a beating downstairs. The second knockdown of the round - and third overall - was enough to prompt the stpppage at 2:50 of the round. 

Gonzalez advances to 12-0 (6KOs), having now stopped five of his last six opponents.

East L.A.-based teenager Jonathan Navarro opened the Estrella TV portion of the telecast with a 4th round knockout of Shaun Lee Henson (2-3, 2KOs).

Navarro (3-0, 2KOs) - who trains out of Robert Garcia Boxing Academy in Oxnard, Calif. - offered a disciplined attack, showing the full arsenal in slowly breaking down Henson. Body punching was not only effective, but the weapon of choice in producing the stoppage. Henson was forced to a knee on two separate occasions in round four, the latter producing the stoppage. 

UNDERCARD (VIA STREAM)

Still a month away from his 19th birthday, San Antonio's Hector Tanajara (3-0, 2KOs) made quick work of Ricardo Alvarado. Two knockdows paved the way for a 1st round knockout.

Damon "No Smilin'" Allen was forced to play up to his nickname in a tough six-round scrap with Oscar Santana, surviving a questionable knockdown to remain unbeaten.

Scores were 58-56 (twice) and 57-55 in favor of Allen, an undefeated lightweight from Philadelphia who dedicated the fight to his ailing grandmother. The 23-year old gave a credible account of himself, but was hurt on two separate occasions as Santana was relentless in his pressure. 

Things grew interesting when Allen was rocked early in round six. A right hand caught him upstairs, at which point the rising prospect attempted to clinch. Santana appeared to shove him to the canvas, but the referee ruled it a knockdown.

It proved inconsequential, as Allen (7-0, 3KOs) had a big enough lead to overcome the call. 

Alan Campa rebounded from a knockout loss earlier this year with a thorough six-round win over Paul Valenzuela in the evening's opening bout. 

The evenly matched middleweight fight on paper quickly became a career-best win for the rangy banger from Mexico. The table was set in the opening round, with Campa laying a body punching foundation in literally beating the fight out of his opponent. 

Valenzuela was floored late in round one and his night never improved much. He enjoyed brief moments of success in round three, a frame where Campa seemed to take off in order to regroup. 

The second half of the fight was competitive, but never in a sense where the action and rounds went back and forth. Campa appeared to have secured a well-earned lopsided win, but the judges made him sweat it out a bit with scores of 58-55 (twice) and 57-56. 

With the win, Campa advances 14-2 (9KOs). Valenzuela falls to 9-2 (6KOs), snapping a six-fight win streak.
