Andy Dominguez gets off canvas to defeat Angel Geovanny Meza Morales PhilBoxing.com Thu, 19 Dec 2024  NYPD officer Nisa Rodriguez remained unbeaten with first KO “Holiday Fight Night 3” Official Results NEW YORK CITY (December 18, 2024) – Last night’s “Holiday Fight Night 3” card, presented by Boxing Insider Promotions, showcased some of the best Big Apple prospects in Sony Hall’s intimate surroundings, streamed live on DAZN from historic Times Square. “There is no place like New York City for boxing,” said promoter Larry Goldberg, the 2024 New York State Promoter of the Year (NYSBHOF). “It has the greatest vibe of anywhere in the world with great fans, as tough as nails, and the strongest regulations in the sport. It’s been a real privilege to promote our 10th professional boxing event in Times Square since 2022 and our third fight in a row on DAZN. We are making our return to New York City on Thursday night, February 20th, and will be announcing details shortly.” The main event between Mexican flyweight Andy Dominguez, a three-time New York Golden Gloves Champion fighting out of the South Bronx, and his Mexican opponent, Angel “Geovanny “Rayito” Meza Morales (8-3-3, 6 KOs), was an old-fashioned barnburner in which Dominguez overcame a knockdown in the third round to win the fight. Dominguez clearly won the first two rounds, but the knockdown evened the fight going into the fourth, in which a confident Morales picked up the pace. Dominguez established command in sixth round and kept control through the remainder of the bout for an eight-round unanimous decision. 
NYPD officer Nisa Rodriguez (3-0, 1 KO), ranked No. 9 in the world by the World Boxing Council (WBC), registered the knockout of her relatively young pro career with a second-round stoppage of middleweight Melody Popravak (2-2-1, 1 KO). Rodriguez rocked Popravak with 30 seconds remaining in the opening round, continuing with a barrage of punches until the bell. Popravak never recovered and Rodriguez, who fights out of Manhattan, battered her with crisp combinations until the fight was halted at the 52-second mark. Popular Manhattan middleweight Jacob Solis (5-0-1, 5 KOs) fought a four-round split draw with late replacement Daniel Jefferson (5-3-1, 0 KOs). Unlike his original opponent, Solis fought a southpaw, and he never found his rhythm. Solis unsuccessfully went for the knockout in the final round, firing overhand rights that never round their mark. Promoter Goldberg announced after the fight that the Solis and Jefferson would fight in a rematch, only in a six-rounder, on February 20. Blue-chip super middleweight prospect Donte Layne (6-0, 6 KOs), 21, kept cruising as he stopped Pachino Hill (8-8-2, 6 KOs) in the fourth round. Fighting out of Long Island, celebrated U.S. amateur boxer Layne made it a perfect 6-for-6 (6 KOs in 6 pro fights), dropping Hill with a damaging body shot in the third, followed in the fourth with a right hook that sent Hill to the canvas once again. Layne jumped on his woozy opponent, throwing an assortment of unanswered punches that forced Hill to take a knee, and the referee immediately waved off the fight. Lightweight Terell Bostic (14-2, 2 KOs), despite injuring his right hand during the fight, nearly pitched a “shutout” enroute to a one-sided eight-round unanimous decision over upset-minded Carlos Marrero (8-10-3, 1 KO). Bostic won all eight rounds on two of the three judges’ scorecards, displaying great conditioning and punching from the pocket. In the opening bout of the evening, Brooklyn lightweight Koby Khalil Williams (4-0, 3 KOs) only needed less than half of the first round to finish off Deonta Williamson (0-3), connecting with hooks from various angles to floor an overwhelmed Williamson for a technical knockout.
