Armando Garcia
WBC/WBA/IBF Welterweight Championship
After their first encounter produces fireworks, including both men tasting the canvas, Cory Spinks and Zab Judah square off for the undisputed Welterweight Championship once more. Despite a grand entrance with rap sensation Nelly, Spinks' homecoming to St. Louis goes awry when Judah finishes what he started in the twelfth round of the first fight. After dueling on even terms for six rounds, Judah rocks Spinks in round seven and appears to score a knockdown, but Referee Armando Garcia calls it a push. Judah again blasts Spinks in the ninth, sending the champion to the canvas. Spinks beats the count, but Judah continues to batter him before imploring Garcia to stop the bout. Garcia gives in moments later and stops Spinks on his feet, making Judah the new undisputed champion.
