Jesse 'Bam' Rodriguez Delivers TKO Blow—Emerges Unified Champion Over Cafu |
Rodriguez's relentless assault secures WBC and WBO titles in Frisco showdown |
Jesse "Bam" Rodriguez showcased his dominance in the super-flyweight division with a decisive victory over Phumelela Cafu on Saturday night in Frisco, Texas.
The undefeated WBC champion overwhelmed Cafu, landing precise combinations and dictating the fight's tempo.
In the 10th round, Rodriguez unleashed a series of powerful punches that left Cafu reeling, prompting his corner to throw in the towel at 2:07, resulting in a technical knockout.
With this win, Rodriguez unified the WBC and WBO titles, further solidifying his status in the 115-pound division.
He described the bout as his toughest to date, praising Cafu's resilience and determination.
Despite the loss, Cafu earned respect for his tenacity and heart in the ring.
The event also featured impressive performances from rising stars Austin "Ammo" Williams and Omari Jones, both securing knockout victories.
Looking ahead, Rodriguez is poised for a unification bout against WBA titleholder Fernando Daniel Martinez later this year, bringing him closer to becoming the undisputed super-flyweight champion.
At just 25, Rodriguez continues to prove himself as one of boxing's top pound-for-pound fighters, with a promising future ahead. |
