VERONA, NEW YORK (December 19, 2015) - The 2015 boxing year culminated with a tremendous show at Turning Stone Resort Casino as WBA Interim Heavyweight Champion Luis "The Real King Kong" Ortiz (24-0, 21 KOs) closed the show by maintaining his title with a knockout-of-the-year candidate over Bryant "By - By" Jennings (19-2, 10 KOs) in the seventh round of their scheduled bout live on HBO Boxing After Dark.

In the co-main of the HBO Latino broadcast, rising middleweight "King" Gabriel Rosado (22-9, 13 KOs) shook off some tough early rounds to earn a hard-fought unanimous victory against former IBF Welterweight World Champion Joshua "Grand Master" Clottey (39-6, 22 KOs).

"It has been more than a year since I have been in the ring so I did feel a little I the rust but I feel like this fight really helped me shake it off," Rosado said. Clottey is a tough opponent, former world champion, definitely a challenge for me in my first fight back. I delivered an entertaining fight tonight and I was happy with my performance. I am ready for my next big challenge, I would like a shot at Canelo [Alvarez] next."

"Gabriel gave everyone a great performance today," said Fernando Vargas, Rosado's trainer. This was our first training camp together and I think we are going to keep growing and make great fights together."

"This was an off night for me," Clottey said. "I do think that the fans enjoyed the fight --we are both fighters that do not like to back down. However, I don't feel comfortable at this weight class, I want to go back down to 154 and continue to fight at junior middleweight."
