Check updates and results from Canelo Álvarez vs. Gennadiy Golovkin as the two boxers meet in the ring for the third time Saturday night at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The 21-year-old rising super middleweight upstart Pacheco — an eight-time amateur national champion — knocked down Collazo with a looping right hand in the fifth round. Collazo shook off the cobwebs and got back up, but Pacheco unleashed a combination of punches until referee Celestino Ruiz stepped in at the 2:29 mark to end the fight.
Referee Tony Weeks immediately waved off the lightweight fight at the 1:40 mark of the round. The 23-year-old Castro was controlling the fight from the onset, and Mendoza appeared to be getting weary as the eight-round scheduled fight went on. In a battle between unbeaten junior welterweight prospects, Aaron Aponte and Fernando Molina traded knockdowns but neither suffered a defeat, fighting for eight rounds to a split draw.
Aponte also dropped Molina in the second round, but he appeared to fade in the second half of the fight.
