VILORIA DECISIONS BERNAL!
By Salven L. Lagumbay PhilBoxing.com Sat, 05 Jan 2008
Former WBC light flyweight kingpin Brian Viloria made a successful return appearance, scoring a knockdown in the final round against Jose Garcia Bernal en route to a comfortable eight-round unanimous decision win moments ago at the Alameda Swap Meet in Los Angeles, California.
According to 15rounds.com, Viloria took some punches as the switch-hitting Bernal changed stances throughout the fight, but the Fil-Am fighter was credited for being more active throughout the affair. Viloria knocked down Bernal with a big right to the breadbasket in the early going of the final round, thus sealing his victory.
All three judges saw the bout 78-72 for Viloria who now improves to 20-2. Bernal slides to 26-11-1.
