Photos: Subriel Matias defeats Jeremias Ponce, James defeats Palmetta

Subriel Matias from Power-Punching showed why he became one of the most favorable knockout artists of boxing when he stopped the unbeaten Jeremias Ponce after five rounds to win a free 140-pound world championship on Saturday evening live with Armory in Minneapolis, leading the premiere boxing masters.

Matias Puerto Rico (19-1, 19 KO) captured the title in an electric fire fight, in which two highest levels of 140 pounds threw 800 total blows in five rounds according to Compubox. For Matias, the victory ended with a long journey, which for almost a year pulled him from his family when he trained in Mexico for his first occasion for the title.

“I’m in the ninth cloud now,” said Matias. “I don’t think I woke up from this sleep. Maybe I can tell you how it is tomorrow, but now it is a dream come true. I wanted to work from the first round because I knew that he would not have the same power as me as the fight. “

Ponce (30-1, 20 KO) came out extremely aggressive and looked at the swarm Matias early when he threw 96 blows in the first round, landing Matias 28-11. Matias corrected in the second round, closing the distance and suffocating ponce to wrap some of his attacks, while finding places for his own low power beats.

“I thought it was an even fight, but one blow could change everything and it happened,” said Ponce. “Subriel is a tough, powerful warrior and I knew what he was capable of.”

After landing the powerful left hand, which hurt the ponce slow in the fourth round, Matias returned and sharply in the fifth round, landing 47% of his power in three minutes. At the disappearing moments of the round, Matias landed with decisive blows, a series of head and body shots, which seriously harmed Matias and put him on the mat.

Ponce was able to reach his stool, but his corner saw enough and suggested that the fight was stopped and the official result appeared as TKO at the end of the fifth round.

“I am fine now,” Ponce said. “My team knows me and made a decision they had to make. It hurts, but the most crucial thing is that I am robust. “

“I wasn’t really surprised,” Matias said. “When I saw how his corner reacted. I saw it [Ponce] He was hurt. I thought I was patient in the first four rounds, so I left with a different approach and way of thinking on the fifth. “

After the fight, along with his IBF belt, Matias set his union with the world champion of the 140-Funt WBC Regis Prograis.

“Regis Prograis, I’m going for you,” Matias said. “I am now world champion. I promise that I will go to hurt you. Prograis likes to talk, but I have the same mentality. Let’s see who prevails. I want him to see that there are more crazy people in this sport. “

In the co -venian event Minneapolis-Native and Welter, Jamal “Shango” James (28-2, 12 KO) returned from a 16-month release to delight the sold-out family crowd and achieved a unanimous victory (18-2, 13 kos).

“I am sure that everyone can see that the release has been influenced by me,” said James. “I had a lot of rust. My legs were not edged, my blows were not edged, but I’m glad that I could get there. I liked it because it pushes me mentally and made me fall for the opportunity. “

“I thought it was an even fight,” Palmetta said. “I was an aggressor with a former world champion, a higher opponent with a longer reach than me.”

In his first action, since the loss of the WBA welterweight title to Radzhab Betaev in October 2021, James won his fifth victory in his career at The Amiable Contains of the Armory. Using his significant growth and advantage, James was able to control most of the actions and question the fight on his terms.

“I tried to adapt,” said James. “I definitely felt that I won the fight, but I believe that I could do much better. I know I’m much sharper. I know that my strength is much stronger. I just had a lot of free time, and my body still returns to shape. I will definitely come back. “

“I also like to counteract, but I raised the pressure in the second half of the fight,” Palmetta said. “Maybe it seemed that Jamal James was better in the first half because he was conservative and counteracting.”

Palmetta was successful, counteracting James, but he was unable to gather enough combinations or hurt James during the action. Edge James was reflected on the results pages because Palmetta 193–111 landed, including Power 153 to 102.

James was also able to apply a edged body attack to stop Palmett at a distance, landing 68 during the fight, compared to only 20 with Palmetta. In the ninth round, the edged upper right miner caused Palmetta to trip and allowed him to replace the fans of James’s hometown.

The crowd got up again, when James and Palmetta whipped power in the last moments of round 10. James maintained his excellent record in the armory at a wide range of 99-91 and 98-92.

“I know that I can become a champion again because I was a champion before,” said James. “I have to focus. Stop at the gym and back and study this fight – actually my last two fights – and accelerate it. Thank you all in Minneapolis for coming and showing me love. “

In the television opener, the super lightweight player Elvis Rodriguez (14-1,12 KO) beat a leisurely start to get a hard-fighting decision about the hardly striking Joseph Adorno (17-2-2, 14 Kos) for 10 rounds.

“Rust rust was definitely a factor,” said Rodriguez. “Perhaps the fight was in a sense more mental than physical, but it is crucial that I beat it.”

After a few rounds that feel, Adorno was the first to be successful, showing a diverse attack with body and head hooks. Before closing the bell, he interrupted a powerful fourth round with several counterattack hooks.

In the fifth round, the action began to heat up, and Rodriguez began to find a house for its crime, while constantly stating the fire with Adorno. Rodriguez eventually took control of the fight in the seventh round, landing perfectly with the right hook that hurt Adorno very much. Rodriguez quickly continued and forced Adorno to the canvas to get the knocking down, although Adorno was able to stay in battle and cross the round.

“I thought I had it when I landed on the right hook, but he got up,” said Rodriguez. “He is a warrior and a good warrior … The seventh round was huge, then I really started to win this fight. I have to assign Adorno for being clever and knowing how to keep a distance earlier. “

Rodriguez traveled this rush for the rest of the fight, landing Adorny 52 to 33 in rounds from seven to 10. Extended by Freddie Roach, the pretender redirected his victory in the final frame, landing the left that judge Jon Schorle ruled, despite the knocking, despite the knocking, despite the seriousness . Adorno, who felt he was stumbled during the exchange.

After 10 rounds, Rodriguez won the cards of the judges, because one result 94-94 was repealed with a value of 95-93 and 97-91. After the fight, Adorno expressed the belief that his early success was enough to get a better result, while Rodriguez set on the up-to-date 140-pound Master Matias.

“I thought the judges were blind,” said Adorno. “I can’t win with these judges. I don’t know how you see the fight 97-91. I thought I won every round, except for those that dropped me. He never worked at all. I had a stab on his face and hit his body. He couldn’t do anything. There is no way to win seven rounds. I thought 94-94 was fine because of the two knocks. “

“As I said yesterday during weighing, bring the winner of the main event,” said Rodriguez. “And for my people in the Dominican Republic, just know that next time I will come back even bolder and even better.”

Before the television program, Showtime Boxing Countdown translated live broadcast on the Showtime Sports YouTube Channel and Showtime Boxing website on Facebook and was topped with a combined welterwear duel, in which Minneapolis-Native Owens (14-3, 12 KOS) is a unanimous decision about Kudratillo Abdukakhororv ( 18-2, 10 KO) 10 rounds. The results of the judges were 99-91, 98-92 and 97-93.

Undefeated KO Artist Moves Closer to Canelo Fight After Latest Stoppage: Its Going to Happen

"Undefeated KO Artist Moves Closer to Canelo Fight After Latest Stoppage: 'It’s Going to Happen'"

Canelo Alvarez could be ordered to enter an immediate title defence if he emerges victorious against Christian Mbilli on October 31.

The Mexican has not fought since September 2025, when he was relieved of his undisputed super-middleweight crown after losing a unanimous decision to Terence Crawford.

On that same card, Mbilli retained his WBC ‘interim’ strap following a 10-round draw against Lester Martinezmaintaining his position as one of the top contenders at 168lbs.

The Frenchman was then upgraded to full world champion in December, with Crawford having relinquished his four major titles and announced his retirement as a three-division undisputed king.

Canelo will therefore have the opportunity to reclaim one of his old belts in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with Mbilli making a first defence of his WBC title.

The winner of their showdown may then be ordered to face Martinez, as the unbeaten mandatory challenger comes off two successful defences of his WBC ‘interim’ strap.

Most recently, the 30-year-old scored a 10th-round stoppage of Luka Plantic last weekend, which followed his unanimous decision victory over Immanuwel Aleem in March.

Speaking at the post-fight presser following his win against Plantic, Martinez said through a translator that he expects to eventually face both Canelo and Mbilli.

“No, look, at the end of the day, I’ve said it before: the second fight [with Mbilli] will happen, possibly next year or the year after. But either one of those fights makes sense for us.

“We know the eyes of the world are going to be on [Mbilli-Canelo]and because we’re going to be there, we’re going to take advantage of all of that. But both fights are going to happen.”

Having already created the “blueprint” to defeat Canelo, Crawford trainer Brian ‘BoMac’ McIntyre said afterwards that he is supremely confident in guiding Martinez to victory against either Alvarez or Mbilli.

Ryan Garcia Reacts as Terence Crawford Supports Conor Benn Against Him

"Ryan Garcia Reacts as Terence Crawford Supports Conor Benn Against Him"

Ryan Garcia has labelled Terence Crawford a “hater” after being told that the all-time great is favouring Conor Benn to pull off a sizable upset.

The 28-year-old will make a first defence of his WBC title against Benn on September 12, headlining an event at Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena.

To his credit, it was arguably a career-best performance that saw Garcia dethrone Mario Barriosdominating their February encounter with a unanimous decision victory.

At the very least, it was a vastly improved display than the one he produced against Rolando Romero, who convincingly outpointed ‘King Ry’ in May 2025.

This result followed his year-long doping ban, however, which can perhaps partly explain why Garcia underperformed so spectacularly against his low-volume opponent.

As for his upcoming clash with Benn, most would argue that the American is superior from both a skill and experience perspective, while ‘The Destroyer’ possibly boasts an edge when it comes to heart and durability.

These qualities were evident during his first encounter with Chris Eubank Jr, which he lost by unanimous decision in 2025 before winning their rematch later that year.

It is perhaps based on those two performances, then, that Crawford has decided to back heavy underdog Bennwho has not fought at 147lbs since 2022 and notoriously tested positive for banned substance clomifene that same year.

Speaking with FightHypethough, Garcia could not accept that ‘Bud’ is being fully genuine with his prediction.

“[Crawford] is really a hater – he needs to get out of retirement already. I think I can beat Crawford – I don’t give a f**k about no Conor Benn.”

Crawford called time on his illustrious career in December, just a few months removed from dethroning Canelo Alvarez and becoming a three-division undisputed champion.
