Last Friday Thompson Boxing Promotions featured two main events that included Martinez (17-1-1, 4 KOs) versus Marks (8-4, 8 KOs) and a female bout between undefeated junior flyweight boxers Sindy Amador and Amaris Quintana.
 
In the main event of the even East L.A.’s Aron Martinez faced Colorado’s tough Joshua “Superman”. The competitive fight went to the seventh round when Martinez landed a right uppercut, left hook combination that sent Marks to the canvas.

In the co-main event junior flyweights Sindy Amador (8-0) of Riverside was judged the winner over San Diego’s Amaris Quintana (6-1-2) in a six round back and forth battle that went the distance. All three judges favored the inside flurries 59-55 twice and 58-56 for Amador.

Opening for the featured fights was Colombia’s Jhonatan “Momo” Romero (21-0, 12 KOs) who battled the rugged Adolfo Landeros (20-24-2, 10 KOs). The fight went the entire eight rounds and showcased Romero’s speed and reflexes as he pummeled Landeros throughout. In round three Romero nearly forced a stoppage, but Landeros was able to evade the killing blow. One judge scored it 80-72 and two others 80-71 for Romero.

Scheduled to fight on the June 23 edition of Telefutura’s “Solo Boxeo” Rico “Suavecito” Ramos posed against his opponent Jhonathan “Momo” Romero and promoter Ken Thompson.

San Fernando’s Rigoberto “Asesino” Flores (4-1, 2 KOs) upset undefeated Pedro Arcos (12-1-1, 9 KOs) with a withering attack that overwhelmed the junior welterweight fighter from Tijuana. After a good first round Arcos couldn’t sustain his energy level and that was right up Flores’s alley. He fought non-stop and landed uppercuts and left hooks that turned around the fight in his favor. All three judges scored it for Flores, 58-56, 60-54 and 59-55.

Their first fight ended in a draw, this fight was won emphatically by Sergio Nuñez (6-0-1, 4 KOs). Santa Ana’s Ramon Flores (3-15-2) and Sylmar’s Nuñez fought 18 months ago at Chumash Casino. This time Nuñez sent Flores through the ropes with a crushing right cross, and when he beat the count, another flurry of blows ended the fight by technical knockout at 2:40 of the first round. Nuñez remains undefeated.

Riverside’s Juan Reyes (5-1-1) battered Pablo Cupul (2-5-2) for three rounds non-stop until referee Lou Moret stopped the fight. Cupul protested the stoppage but was taking a lot of blows though he was never close to going down. The one-sided bantamweight fight was stopped at 2:46 of round three.

San Pedro’s Isaac Zarate (3-0) pounded through Gus Rojas’ (0-2) defense for all four rounds of a bantamweight fight. The southpaw was the quicker fighter and all three judges scored it 40-36 in his favor.

Enjoy the fistic action next month on Friday, June 22 when Thompson Boxing Promotions returns to Doubletree Hotel in Ontario!
