by Cliff Rold - They share Brian Viloria in common. Both suffered a stoppage loss at his hands. Both fight this Saturday night for the chance to avenge that loss, once removed. In a bit of good fortune for boxing fans, what originally looked like it would be a small pay-per-view show in the US is now a main event on UniMas’s “Solo Boxeo” (Saturday, 11 PM EST/PST). It won’t compete for our dollars, but it will compete for attention. At roughly the same time, a well-promoted showdown at the Madison Square Garden Theatre will take place between WBA Middleweight titlist Gennady Golovkin and puncher Curtis Stevens. It promises fireworks and, with HBO (Saturday, 10 PM EST/PST) set to air a preliminary bout, the two fights could go head to head.

Former two-division world champion Giovani Segura resurrected his career with a fourth-round knockout of previously unbeaten Jonathan 'Bomba' Gonzalez on the road Saturday evening in Carolina, Puerto Rico. Disaster soon struck for the 22-year old Puerto Rican, whose chin would get a workout in round two. Segura was relentless in his pursuit of the local prospect, flooring him twice in the round but unable to put him away. The moment Gonzalez conceded real estate in the fourth, the fight was over. Segura put the local prospect down for the third time in the fight, this time for good as Gonzalez never made it back to his feet. The official time was 2:25 of round four. The win puts Segura's record at 30-3-1 (26KO), Gonzalez loses for the first time in his young career. His record now falls to 13-1 (11KO).
