El Paso, TX (July 18, 2015)– People watching Premier boxing Champions on CBS got something a little different than what they expected this Saturday. The PBC card consisted of Chris Arreola (36-4-1, 31 ko’s) verses Frederic Kassi (18-3-1, 10 ko’s) and then in the main event Carl Frampton (21-0, 14 ko’s) took on Alejandro Gonzalez Jr. (25-2-2, 15 ko’s).
In the co-main event Arreola was expected to blow away his relatively unknown opponent, Kassi, but the fight said otherwise. Throughout the fight Kassi would switch from orthodox to southpaw which would frustrate Arreola making him hesitate before throwing a punch. A majority of the fight Kassi was out boxing Arreola. Arreola’s undoing in the rounds was his inability to let his hands go and throw some punches. What really saved Arreola were rounds where he would show bursts of energy and punch Kassi so hard that you could feel it from the crowd. Due to Arreola’s inability to take care of business the fight ended in a draw, setting him back for a title shot. “Obviously I’m not ready for a fight with Wilder” said Arreola. “I want to earn that shot and I didn’t today.”
In the main event, once again, Frampton was expected to dispose of his opponent early. Instead Gonzalez knocked down Frampton twice in the first round. The first knockdown looked like Frampton was caught off balance, but the second knockdown was a sure result from a hard right hand. After the first round it was thought that things were going to start to look down for Carl Frampton when in reality Frampton basically dominated every round from there on after. While Gonzalez was the stronger puncher, which would hurt Frampton here and there, Frampton was the faster fighter and beat Gonzalez to the punch every time. The fight ended in a unanimous in favor of Frampton. “I got up and showed courage.” said Frampton. “I came back and won most of the rounds and gave excitement.”
