WBC Featherweight Championship


Fighting on Cinco de Mayo weekend, WBC Featherweight Champion Erik Morales settles a score with Fernando Velardez on the undercard of the bout between Oscar De La Hoya and Yori Boy Campas. Looking to punish Velardez both for beating his brother Diego on a disqualification and trash talking the city of Tijuana a year earlier, Morales scores four knockdowns before the bout is halted by Referee Kenny Bayless. Like a hunter with a fallen deer, Morales stands over Velardez and poses for photos after the bout.
