Former WBC Super Welterweight champion Sergio Mora resurrected his career with ten round unanimous decision over former world title challenger Grzegorz Proksa in a Middleweight bout at the Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida.
Surprisingly it was Mora who landed the harder punches as well as dictating the pace against Proksa who looked befuddled at times. Mora was very effective with the lead right and fought more aggressively than he has showed in previous fights. Maybe that was the effect of dropping two close decisions to number-one ranked Brian Vera. Whatever the case may be, Mora looked good as he caused swelling under the right eye of Proksa, who looked like he never was comfortable in the bout.
Mora of Los Angeles, CA won by scores of 98-92, 96-94 and 96-94 and is now 24-2-2. Proksa of Poland is now 29-3.
Patrick Tiexiera remained perfect with a ten round unanimous decision over spoiler Marcus Willis in a Jr. Middleweight bout.
Tiexeira landed the harder blows and was more active. He rocked Willis several times and had him wobbled in round three. Willis landed some good shots but it was few and far between against the hard charging Tiexeira, who fought most of the fight with a cut over his left eye.
Tiexiera, 154 lbs of Sao Paulo, Brazil won by scores of 98-92, 97-93 and 96-94 and is now 20-0. Willis, 154.2 lbs of Fort Myers, FL is now 13-3-2.
