By Jake Donovan - Undefeated 140 lb. prospect Mercito “No Mercy” Gesta made the most of his upgrade to main event status on Friday night’s Telefutura broadcast, scoring a one-punch seventh round stoppage of Genaro Trazancos at the Casino del Sol in Tucson, Arizona.
The bout was fought at a moderate pace most of the way through before Gesta turned up the heat in the seventh. Trazancos tried to play the role of aggressor while Gesta boxed, but was there to be hit all night and wound up getting caught in a big way.
A right hook began the rally, followed by a left to push him towards center ring. Gesta scored with another straight left hand seconds later, landing flush enough to put Trazancos down and leave him buzzed enough to struggle to his feet as he was being counted out.
The official time was 0:53 of the seventh round.
