Contender Mora Remains Undefeated

Saturday May 6, 2006
The boxers from The Contender television series took another step towards joining the boxing mainstream ... with mixed results. Contender champ Sergio Mora (18-0) was knocked down in the second round but got off the canvas to score a seventh-round TKO over Archak Termeliksetian. Referee Robert Byrd appeared to call a halt to the action a bit prematurely but Mora was clearly in control at the time of the stoppage. In the co-feature, fan favorite Alfonso Gomez (14-3-2) and Jesse Feliciano went toe-to-toe for eight rounds of non-stop action. Despite all the punches being landed, there were no knockdowns. In the end, the judges scored the bout a majority draw. Two other Contenders were on the undercard in six-round bouts. Miguel Espino scored a shut out over Gabriel Holguin and Jonathan Reid earned a unanimous decision over Ryan Davis.
