Andreas ‘Katz’ Katzourakis (16-0, 11 KOs) stopped Roberto ‘El Terror de Cayey’ Cruz (11-1, 7 KOs) at 2:37 of the seventh round for the vacant WBA Continental Americas Super Welterweight title on Friday night at Red Owl Boxing Arena, Houston, TX. Breyon Gorham defeated Luis Feliciano in the co-main event by a 10-round unanimous decision.

In the second round’s first minute, Cruz had his way out, landing Katzourakis, who came back well the rest of the round. Cruz had an edge in an action round in the third and fourth rounds. In the fifth round’s final seconds, Katzourakis had Cruz hurt with a flurry of punches.

In the sixth round’s final seconds, Katzourakis drove Cruz into the ropes, which looked like a knockdown, but Referee John Schorle waved it off like it was a slip. In the seventh round’s final minute, Katzourakis drove Cruz to the canvas as Cruz’s corner threw in the towel, ending the fight.

In the co-main event, super lightweight Breyon ‘Grindtime’ Gorham, 19-0 (15), out-pointed Luis Feliciano, 17-3(8) by a 10-round unanimous decision, scoring a knockdown.

In the first round, previously unbeaten and coming off a pair of losses, Feliciano was outlanded. From the second through the seventh rounds, Feliciano made a fight of it, though Gorham got the best of it for the most part.

In the eighth round, Gorham countered Feliciano with a right on the chin, dropping him for an 8-count from Referee James Green.
