The finishes continued to flow in Combate Americas’ second weekly Monday night show in Los Angeles.
The show’s 140-pound headliner between John Castaneda (10-2) and Gabriel Solorio (13-12) was one of only two main-card bouts to require the judges. Even so, there was no shortage of action between the featherweights inside “La Jaula.”
After trading punches on the feet with Solorio in a fairly even opening round, Castaneda took control of the second stanza with a takedown and heavy top pressure. Solorio remained aggressive while on his back -- and even moreso on his feet at the start of round three -- but Castaneda’s wrestling saw him to victory in the end.
