Jose Roman Dropped Three Times, Holds on To Win

•May 16, 2014

Jose Roman's nickname is "El Gato," which means cat in Spanish. Based on what happened to him early in his fight on Friday night, he might have needed one or two his "lives" to make a comeback and come out victorious. Roman survived three first round knockdowns to win a 10 round come-from-behind victory over Luis Solis at the Doubletree Hotel Events Center in Ontario, CA. With the win, Roman wins a regional title belt. Solis swung momentum in the opening round in his favor by dropping Roman with a right uppercut to the head. After getting up, Roman was knocked down again moments later from a barrage of punches.
