Earlier, undefeated welterweight Wale “Lucky Boy” Omotoso 23-0 (19 KOs) won an eight round unanimous decision over tough Puerto Rican Daniel Sostre 11-7-1 (4 KOs).
Omotoso outworked his overmatched foe in rounds one, two, and three with his jab and pressure punching.
“Lucky Boy” then landed a thunderous left hook to the body, but Sostre handled everything from the Nigerian import and took it pretty good. There was more of the same pace up until the final bell.
Being a natural junior welterweight and taking this fight on only two week’s notice, Sostre deserves a ton of credit for hanging in there with the highly touted Omotoso. Scores were 80-72, 79-37, 79-73 for Omotoso.
