Marco Antonio Rubio Batters Jaison Palomeque Over Two

By Mark Vester

At the City Discotheque in Cancun, Quintana Roo, Mexico, middleweight contender Marco Antonio Rubio (46-5, 40KOs) battered Jaison Palomeque (12-4, 7KOs) in two rounds for a knockout win.

Rubio nearly put Palomeque away at the end of the first round. He dropped him hard but couldn't finish him off with the clock running out to sound the bell. Rubio was in full control of the second, dropping Palomeque for the second time and then finishing him off about 15-seconds later with a two punch combo to put him down for the third time and the ref waved off the fight.
