On Friday night at the Caribe Royale in Orlando, Florida, boxing fans witnessed a series of matchups headlined by the WBA Continental Americas Super Lightweight champion Kevin Hayler Brown defending his title against the tough John “El Terrible” Bauza.

In the main event, Kevin Hayler Brown remained undefeated with a hard-fought victory over John Bauza in a ten-round contest. Brown scored a knockdown in the first round with a well-placed right hand to the body, giving him an early edge. Bauza, however, showed resilience throughout the fight, bouncing back and making the bout competitive with strong finishes in several rounds. Despite Bauza’s effort, Brown’s consistent body attack and strong finish secured him a unanimous decision with scores of 99-93, 98-91, and 97-92.

In an undercard bout, super lightweight Hendri “La Bazuca” Cedeno continued his rise by stopping southpaw Enrico Gogokhia after five rounds. Cedeno dominated the early rounds with his hand speed and boxing skills. Gogokhia managed to land some solid shots in the third round, but Cedeno regained control in the later rounds. The fight was halted between rounds five and six due to a shoulder injury suffered by Gogokhia, giving Cedeno the victory by stoppage.

Middleweight southpaw Yoelvis “La Joya” Gomez put on a dominant performance, stopping Diego “Mexicano” Ferreira after four rounds. Gomez controlled the fight from the start, landing powerful hooks that stunned Ferreira in the first round and continued to apply pressure throughout the bout. In the fourth round, Gomez bloodied Ferreira’s nose and hurt him several times before Ferreira’s corner decided to stop the fight, awarding Gomez the TKO victory.

Bantamweight Carlos “Prettyboy” Lebron faced Luis Quiles in a closely contested four-round bout that ended in a majority draw. Lebron started strong, outworking Quiles in the first two rounds, but Quiles mounted a comeback in the third. The fourth round was competitive, with Lebron having a slight edge. The judges’ scores reflected the close nature of the fight, with one judge scoring it 39-37 for Lebron and two judges scoring it 38-38, resulting in a draw.
