The World Boxing Council Super Flyweight Champion Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez, knocked out the interim champion, Pedro Guevara, in the third round, this Saturday at the Wells Fargo Center, in Philadelphia, United States.

Rodriguez’s dominance was evident  from the beginning of the fight. He was more active and sharper, applying intense pressure at all times. Guevara was working more with his jab, moving around the ring and showing courage and ingenuity, which  has characterized him throughout his career.

In the second round, Rodriguez punished Guevara with hard combinations to the body and head, paving the way for what was to transpire.

In the third round, Rodriguez continued to apply pressure, shortening the distance and with a jarring straight left sent Guevara to the canvas. Imbued with championship spirit and Mexican fighting courage, Guevara got up. But Bam continued to relentlessly pursue him, applying daunting plus exacting pressure, only moments later, sending the Mexican to the canvas again with a crushing uppercut  to the chin, ending the fight at 2.47 of the third.
