11:22 p.m.: Tank and Cruz have made their way to the ring. Hip Hop artist Lil Durk walked Davis to the ring to a rousing ovation. He's certainly the favorite with this crowd.

11:00 p.m.: Sebastian Fundora def. Sergio Garcia via unanimous decision. Scores were 115-113, 117-111 and 118-110. 

10:50 p.m.: After a fast start, Fundora-Garcia has slowed to a crawl. It's the 10th round and the fight just hasn't hit that gear that we anticipated. Fundora is certainly winning but the fight has lacked excitement throughout. This won't get Fundora over with fans. 

10:28 p.m.: The fight is exactly what you'd expect after four rounds. Fundora just throwing punches and bunches and negating his own height advantage while Garcia tries to bully his way inside with the knowledge that he can't stand outside and box. It's been close through as Garcia has landed some big overhands in the fourth round that opened a cut on Fundora. 

10:08 p.m.: The co-main event is up next as the 6'5" junior middleweight Sebastian Fundora (17-0-1, 12 KOs) is back in action against Sergio Garcia. Fundora is looking for his fourth consecutive knockout after finishing Jorge Cota in the fourth round back in May. Garcia is unbeaten with a record of 33-0 with 14 KOs.

9:51 p.m.: An all-action fight between Derevyanchenko and Adames heads to the scorecards. It certainly looks like Adames will edge this one out but it was a great showing by both fighters. 

9:43 p.m.: Derevyanchenko has pulled back into a close fight as we enter the final two rounds. Both fighters are winging big power shots and landing. Neither has really backed off and it'll be interesting to see how the judges score it. Feels like Adames should be ahead but Derevyanchenko continues to come forward and land big punches. Heck of a fight. 

9:27 p.m.: The fight between Adames and Derevyanchenko has picked up pretty quickly through four rounds. After a tedious first round, Adames buzzed Derevyanchenko in the second frame and they both exchanged heavy leather. Adames has done well for himself by using angles to land his big power punches. Derevyanchenko is certainly in the fight and has landed some combinations of his own. 

9:08 p.m.: Up next is an important middleweight title between Carlos Adames and Sergiy Derevyanchenko. This will certainly be Adames most difficult test to date as Derevyanchenko has been in the ring with the likes of Gennadiy Golovkin, Daniel Jacobs and Jermall Charlo. 

9:00 p.m.: It was a pretty one-sided outing by Eduardo Ramirez, who dominated Miguel Marriaga from the outside. After a slow first round, Ramirez outworked his opponent and dropped him with a chopping left hand in the third round to take the fight easily with scores of 99-90, 99-90 and 99-90.
