Fight Results

Here are results from last night's boxing (World Championship Boxing on HBO) and MMA (Exlite XC on Showtime) fights:

Boxing:

"Sugar" Shane Mosely d. Luis Callazo via Unanimous Judges Decision. Scorecards read 118-109, 118-109, and 119-108. Mosely is now the "interim" WBC Welterweight Champion.

Vivian Harris d. Juan Lazcano via Unanimous Judgs Decision. Scorecards read 114-113, 115-112, and 115-112 for the WBC 140 lb. title.

MMA:

Charles "Krazy Horse" Bennett d. KJ Noons via KO (big right hand) at 3:43 of the the 1st round.

Gina Carano d. Julie Kedzie via Unanimous Judges Decision in the 1st ever women's MMA match televised in North America. Scorecards read 29-28, 29-28, and 30-27. Full of great action, this could have easily been considered fight of the night.

Joey Villasenor d. David Loiseau via Unanimous Judges Decision. All three scorecards read 30-27.

Antonio Silva d. Wesley "Cabbage" Correira via TKO (referee's stoppage due to strikes) at 3:49 in the 1st Round.

Renzo Gracie d. Frank Shamrock via DQ at 2:00 of Round 2. Gracie dominated the 1st Round taking Frank down at least twice and holding good position on top. Frank looked content to throw a few knees from his back, and try to get "stalling" called for so the fight could be stood back up (which happened once in the 1st round). Frank caught Renzo with a few punches, but nothing that ever made Renzo look as if he was in trouble. Round 2 looked like more of the same, as Renzo once again took Shamrock down. Near the fence, Frank used his feet to pull himself perpendicular to the fence, and to once again bring knees from the bottom. Frank had been warned earlier in the fight for knees to the head, and once again kneed Gracie to the head and back of neck. Time was called for Renzo to recover as he was stunned from one of the illegal blows. Renzo could not continue and was taken to a hospital for medical attention. Due to the fact that Shamrock had been warned once, and once again violated Elite XC rules, he was disqualified.
