Brandon Bennett, Ricardo Williams Jr. Win Clashes
HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. -- In the main event of R&R Promotions’ Friday Night Fights: “Put Down the Guns, Pick Up the Gloves” Brandon “Untouchable” Bennett defeated tough veteran Tyrone Harris via unanimous decision. The 13-bout card featured nine Cincinnati fighters who earned victories in front of a hometown crowd, just across the Ohio River in Kentucky, at the Bank of Kentucky Center on the campus of Northern Kentucky University. It was a calm affair early with Bennett moving and jabbing Harris with his right. In the fifth round, after Harris complained of a late hit by Bennett, matters began to heat up. Bennett worked three-punch combinations to Harris’ body and head finishing with left uppercuts. Harris never had much of a reply to Bennett’s more effective work, reflected in the judges’ scores of 80-72 three times. With the win, Bennett, 26, is now 18-1 (7 KOs). Harris, 33, of Lansing, Mich., is 24-10 (16 KOs).
