Once upon a time, Antonio Lozada Jr. was a gifted knockout artist on his way towards title contention. The 24-year old still has time to live up to that promise, but for now continues his rebuilding campaign. The latest effort came Saturday evening, as he scored a 5th round stoppage of Cristian Solano in Rosarito, Mexico.
The bout - which aired live on Cadena Tres in Mexico - was competitive in an odd way; Lozada Jr. was clearly the better of the two and winning the rounds, but both seemed to pick it up a notch towards the end of each round, particularly at the 10-second mark, fighting as if it were the last ten seconds of the fight.
Solano's plan to go toe-to-toe were well-intentioned, but the journeyman eventually found himself in over his head. Lozada Jr. dialed it up on the power-punching front in round five, forcing the referee to stop the fight. [Click Here To Read More]
