On the undercard of Samuel Peter-Jameel McCline at New York's Madison Square Garden, Andrew Golota (40-6-1, 33 KOs) got the biggest win of his career in the last few years with a gutsy stoppage of Kevin McBride (34-6-1, 29 KOs) in the sixth round.
After being badly rocked in the very first round, Golota came from behind in the sixth to land a monster left that put McBride in trouble, then followed up with a combination of shots to get the stoppage.
Late replacement Kali "Checkmate" Meehan (33-3, 27 KOs) stopped DaVarryl "Touch Of Sleep" Williamson (24-5, 20 KOs), also in the sixth round. Meehan floored Williamson with a perfect right hand near the end of the sixth. Williamson was never able to fully recover and found himself unable to come out for round number seven.
