London 2012 Olympic bronze medalist Taras Shelestyuk (19-0, 11 KOs) scored a tenth-round TKO victory over Venezuelan Ernesto Espana, 40, (31-3-1, 26 KOs) on Saturday night in Cancun, Mexico. It was a slow-moving fight but with 15 seconds left in the final round Shelestyuk was able to get the referee stoppage to the apparent displeasure of his opponent.
In this evening's main event, undefeated David "El General" Cuellar (20-0, 13 KOs) knocked out former world champion Moises Fuentes (25-7-1, 14 KOs) in the sixth round. The fate of the competitive bout was decided by an accurate left hook from the 19-year-old Cuellar that sent Fuentes to the floor for several minutes. The time was 2:11.
