Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas - Welterweight prospect Emanuel Medina (14-0, 9 KOs) punched his way to an eight round unanimous decision over Saul Corral (27-11, 18 KOs), who came forward and got hit all fight long. The scores were 79-73, 80-72, 80-72. 

Junior lightweight prospect Xavier Martinez (11-0, 7 KOs) crushed Jairo Vargas (6-4, 5 KOs) in two rounds. Vargas went down the first round and then again in the second, which prompted the referee to wave off the contest.

In an eight round featherweight contest, Sharone Carter (9-2, 2 KOs) pulled off an upset with a unanimous decision win over previously undefeated Ahmed Mahmood (7-1-1, 3 KOs).

The scores were 77-75, 78-74 and 79-73.

Mahmood, who is promoted by Mayweather Promotions, had more than his fair share of issues with the slick boxing style of Carter, who often tied up Mahmood to prevent him from getting off with offense in numerous instances, and also used movement and good defense.
