Ivan Najera turned back a stiff challenge from Alexander Lopez to take a well-deserved six-round decision in the televised opener.
Scores were 58-56 (twice) and 59-55 in a high-octane lightweight battle. Najera won the majority of the exchanges but was made to work every second of the fight. Lopez dug deep throughout the fight and came out swinging in the final round, but was unable to put a dent in the San Antonio native.
Najera improves to 11-0 (8KO), while Lopez dips to 6-5 (1KO).
Super bantamweight prospect Tramaine Williams remains perfect in the pro ranks, topping Isaac Zarate over six rounds in a battle of unbeaten youngsters. The 20-year old New Haven (Conn.) boxer pitched a shutout, winning 60-54 on all three scorecards as he improves to 8-0 (2KO). Zarate falls to 5-1 (0KO).
