Ray Beltran was a lot better Saturday night than he was the last time he fought in Omaha.
It helped, of course, that he wasn't fighting Terence Crawford. But Beltran beat Mason Menard by seventh-round knockout to score an impressive victory the 35-year-old lightweight contender desperately needed.
Phoenix's Beltran (32-7-1, 20 KOs, 1 NC) dropped Menard (32-2, 24 KOs), of Rayne, Louisiana, with a counter left hook early in the seventh round. Menard managed to get to his feet, but referee Mark Nelson stopped the fight at 51 seconds of the seventh round.
