All results from Sebastian Fundora vs Keith Thurman on March 28
Yoenli Hernandez vs Terrell Gausha
Next up was the middleweight division, featuring the dangerous, unbeaten Cuban, Yoenli Hernandez (10-0, 9 KOs), against the experienced Terrell Gausha (24-6-1, 12 KOs).
Hernandez was dominant throughout the first three minutes, whipping in a series of heavy shots, forcing Gausha to retreat. The Cuban fighter kept up the pressure in the second round and mixed his shots impressively, with Gausha, a former Olympian, unable to land anything of note.
The Cuban fighter continued to apply the pressure in the fourth round and threw a right hand, which saw the referee bizarrely step in and wave the fight off. It was difficult to see anything other than a Hernandez win, but Gausha had never been stopped before. That was a bizarre stoppage.
Gurgen Hovhannisyan vs Cesar Navarro
First up on the Sebastian Fundora vs Keith Thurman undercard was Gurgen Hovhannisyan (10-0, 9 KOs) vs Cesar Navarro (15-4, 13 KOs) in the heavyweight division.
It was a very quiet opening round, with Hovhannisyan using his sizeable reach advantage to control the distance. At the end of the second round, Hovhannisyan put together a smart combination. When Navarro used his footwork to move inside, he had success. However, the jab of Hovhannisyan, when used, stopped him from moving in too often.
Towards the end of the fourth round, the Armenian fighter landed an eye-catching left hook-right hand combination. Hovhannisyan continued to amp up the pressure, and in the fifth round, Navarro was hit with a series of heavy-looking shots, leading the referee to step in and wave the bout off. The Armenian won by fifth-round TKO.
