types. Here is a chronological recounting of our live-tweets from ringside,
made slightly more grammatical and a little bit less hashtaggie.
You
can follow us on Twitter here

(1) of Mexico
fights Meiirim Nursultanov 160lbs, 1-0 of Kazakhstan

Nursultanov put Olvera down once
with a vicious barrage of blows to the body & head. Olvera finished the
round but this won't last much longer
Ref. Danny Schiavone waves off
the beating Nursultanov was dishing out after Olvera staggered away from a
heavy jolt to the head, TKO
official time 1:15 of round 2, winner by TKO and now 2-0 (1)
is Meiirim Nursultanov. Javier Olvera falls to 1-1 (1)

the country not the state, fights Bryan Goldsby 147.5 4-2 of Macon ,
Georgia
Big first round for southpaw
Enriko Gogokhia who punished Goldsby with heavy straight punches, trapping him
along the ropes repeatedly
Not sure what's keeping Goldsby
on his feet. Gogokhia hammered him with powerful straight lefts in rd 2
#RisingStarsBoxingSeries
That's it. The corner decides to
call it & referee Danny Schiavone halts the fight before the bell to begin
the 3rd
Bout 3, Madiyar Ashkeyev 154lbs, of Kazakhstan Shawn Cameron 153lbs, of Brooklyn ,
NY
big head butt and Ashkeyev is
bleeding badly, middle of the forehead
Ashkeyev looked to have won that
round over southpaw Shawn Cameron but they are going to have to do work in that
corner to stop bleeding
 |
| Madiyar Ashkeyev looks to land on Shawn Cameron |
The cut looks to be right along
the eyebrow over the right eye of Ashkeyev
Ashkeyev is very elusive, moving
all around Cameron, firing at him from all sides
Cameron trying to hold Ashkeyev
off with a flicking southpaw jab but it's all Ashkeyev so far, despite the
grisly cut #RisingStarsBoxingSeries
Ashkeyev really showing a lot of
skills here. He's overwhelming Cameron, keeping him on the defensive
Three rounds to none for Madiyar
Ashkeyev so far. Cameron's showing his durability. Ashkeyev in charge
Ashkeyev using hard combinations
& spectacular angles, able to hop sideways behind right hand blasts to the
head of Cameron
Ashkeyev is not sparing the guts
of Cameron either. Landing repeated left hooks to Cameron's side.
Their heads collided again. It's
gonna keep happening... a southpaw versus a come-forward aggressive guy
Shawn Cameron sits down heavily
on his stool at the end of round five. He's taken a lot of clean hard blows to
the head
Ashkeyev's face is awash in
crimson again but it's having no effect on him. He continues dominating his
durable foe
CT's ringside physician Michael
Schwartz is on his way into Cameron's corner to check on him after another
bruising round in the 6th
They're going to let it
continue... Round 7 now
That's it. Referee Danny
Schiavone has seen enough in round seven with Ashkeyev blasting at Cameron
along the ropes
official time was 1:06 of round 7, Ashkeyev improves to 8-0 (4)
while the durable Shawn Cameron falls to 10-3 (5)
we've got an intermission here,
if you didn't notice. Still three bouts to go..
Bout 4 @TheMenaceCC 9-0 (5)
245lbs of New London , CT Detroit ,
MI

| Cassius Chaney fires a jab at Juan Goode |
Juan Goode has come right out
aggressively, Chaney sticking a jab in his face
Goode kept Chaney busy throughout
the first, pressing the fight, but he wound up taking lots of straight shots
& 1-2s from Chaney,
Chaney controlling things,
staying behind his jab and poking Goode from the outside.
It looks like Cassius Chaney's
shoes has torn. The sole of the shoe has come off. It's being taped up by the
corner.
@TheMenaceCC connects with two
monstrous rights in the final minute of the third round that delight this CT
crowd
If the first two rounds were the
feeling-out rounds it was in that third that @TheMenaceCC started slamming
Goode with power shots
Goode is suffering from a
significant height and reach deficit here but he's making up for it in
persistence and pressure
Chaney looks to be tiring a bit.
Goode taking Chaney's best shots pretty well. Sixth and final round coming up.
Juan Goode had his best moments
in the 6th and final round but it's doubtful he won more than 1 or 2 rounds on
these cards.
At the end of six the scores are
59-55 x 3 all in favor of @TheMenaceCC who runs his record to 10-0 (5)
Bout 5 Vaughn Alexander 162lbs 7-0 (5)
of Saint Louis , MO Delicias ,
Mexico
Alexander looks to be in
ridiculously good shape. But looks don't win fights.
Alexander countering with heavy
pot-shots. Calixto urging him to hit him after getting slammed with several
hard body shots
this fight is probably going to
end on a body shot because Alexander is relentless with the left hook to the
body of Calixto
 |
| Vaughn Alexander in black eyeballs Andres Calixto |
Calixto had his best moments in
that second round but Alexander hurt him with an uppercut in the final 30
seconds
they exchange along the ropes.
Calixto getting his licks in, including a nice left hook to Alexander's body as
payback
Vaughn Alexander throws no jabs
at all. Every punch is a mean power blast.
Alexander's punches are speedy
and accurate but they don't seem to be hurting Calixto. But they're winning him
these rounds.
Calixto getting a little
frustrated about being hit so much. He pooped Alexander on the break at one
point in the 7th.
this is undiscovered country for
Vaughn Alexander. He's gone 6. Never 8 or ten rounds. we're in the 9th and he's
ahead.
10th coming up... Calixto has had
a few moments but I can't imagine the judges giving him even 2 rounds tops.
Alexander pot-shotting to win
Referee just took a point from
Calixto. Not sure what it was for. Maybe for too much talking? It annoyed the
ref I guess.
waiting on the scorecards...
The judges see it 100-89, 99-90 x
2 all in favor of Vaughn Alexander who is now 3-0 since his release from prison
in twenty-fifteen
Bout 6 here we go... @sullivanbarrera
18-1 (13) 178lbs of Guantanamo , Cuba Toledo , OH
Parker, a rangy southpaw is
posing a bit of a stylistic problem for Barrera.
@sullivanbarrera starting to land
with some power in the 3rd. He may have stunned Parker in final minute of the
round.

| Sullivan Barrera hurts Paul Parker with a right |
Referee Harvey Dock telling the
ringside officials Parker has five minutes to recover. There are 3 minutes or
so left.
Parker is going 2 take the full 5
minutes. This crowd is getting antsy. It's after midnight
& the Christians in the crowd have eggs to hide
Parker took a deep breath as he
went back to his stool. It was a hard head butt that changed the course of the
Ashkeyev-Cameron bout earlier
@sullivanbarrera caught him with
a big right, he attacks with both hands and Parker goes down.
Another head butt. This time it's Barrera who
has gotten the worst of it. He may be cut.
A right to the chin from Barrera
sends Parker reeling back into the ropes and down. The ref lets it continue but
Barrera is all over him
