Oscar Duarte vs Kenneth Sims JR-Wyniki and report after the fight
At the top of the Golden Boy promotion card in Chicago, Oscar Duarte made a close majority decision against Kenneth Sims JR to get closer to the World Championship title on Saturday.
Duarte (30-2-1, 23 KO) was recently in February, winning the victory in the seventh round with Miguel Madueeno, while Sims Jr (22-3-1, 8 KO) was on the same card as his opponent during the last exit, in which he was the winner of the broad points against Kendo Castaned.
Sims worked with his stab in the first round and went with his rival to eye -catching shots, but the Mexican better than the exchange in the second round, and “La Migrana” joined with the left hook at the end of the third, which shocked his home favorite.
The Sims gathered well, trading the skin from Duarta in fifth place and seemed better than a quarrel.
They were ahead and back and both opened, and seven in the round saw that Duarte had hurt the 31-year-old again, this time with the right to the body.
Duarte’s arrows had a greater influence, and the left hook in the ninth restless simsom, but “Bossman” remained again in rock, allowing his hands to end 10 ..
The couple again threw weighty blows in the penultimate squad, and Sims shaded the quarrel, and the fight looking for catching in the final frame, Duarte raised pressure and worked well when the absorption competition ended.
Duarte had two results 116-112 and 115-113 in his favor, and the third judge fired a fight against the draw 114-114 to make sure he won.
Duarte approached the meeting with the WBA master, Gary’s Antuanne Russell, and the fight was the eliminator of his title.

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.
McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
