Guido Vianello gradually closed the left eye of Arslanbek Makhmudov and closed the show in the eighth round when the ringside doctor had seen Makhmudov (19-2, 18 KOs) take enough punishment. Vianello (13-2-1, 11 KOs) suddenly looks like a fringe heavyweight contender.

Cuban super middleweight Osleys Iglesias (12-0, 11 KOs) swarmed Sena Agbeko (28-4, 22 KOs), putting him on the deck for the first time in his career and ending his night early with a second-round stoppage.

Twenty-year-old lightweight super-prospect Abdullah Mason dispatched Mike Ohan Jr. (19-3, 9 KOs) inside two rounds, dropping Ohan twice and prompting his corner to end the fight.

Junior lightweight Leila Beaudoin (12-1, 1 KO) earned a unanimous decision over 10 rounds against Bolivia’s Lizbeth Crespo (15-8, 4 KOs), by scores of 100-90, 99-91 and 98-92 – and to the delight of a crowd that was firmly behind the Quebec native.

Another local of sorts, 19-year-old light heavyweight prospect and Quebec City-born Wilkens Mathieu (10-0, 6 KOs) blanked Facundo NIcolas Galovar (15-12-2, 9 KOs) on all three officials' scorecards in a six-rounder.

Middleweight Jahi Tucker (12-1-1, 5 KOs) showed promise in winning a wide eight-round decision over Santiago Fernandez (8-2-1, 4 KOs).

Quebec native and junior lightweight Thomas Chabot (11-0, 8 KOs) was pushed but dominated the scoring over eight rounds against Matias Guenemil (10-4-1, 5 KOs) to earn a unanimous decision win.

Two-time Belarusian Olympian Dzmitry Asanau (8-0, 3 KOs) won every frame of an eight-round matchup with Alexis Camejo (8-4-2, 1 KO), continuing his campaign as an undefeated lightweight prospect.
