Time for the return of Adrien Broner

It is time for the main event as Adrien Broner faces off with Jovanie Santiago in welterweight action. The bout had been set for the junior welterweight limit of 140 pounds but was switched to 147 on Thursday.

Broner (33-4-1, 24 KOs) competes for the first time since getting wiped out by Manny Pacquiao in January 2019. 

Santiago (14-0-1, 10 KOs) fights in the United States for the first time as he looks to notch his third consecutive knockout.

Otto Wallin routs Dominic Breazeale

Wallin def. Breazeale by unanimous decision (118-110, 117-111, 116-112). DAZN News scored the fight 118-110 for Wallin.

Wallin dominated from the opening bell. He outboxed Breazeale at every turn. His left hand was on point, mixing up the jab and power shots, which caused Breazeale to slow down considerably and not look good at all. 

That is now back-to-back wins since the Swede's loss to Tyson Fury. It will be interesting to see who Wallin squares off with next as he's a legitimate threat in the heavyweight division.

Breazeale-Wallin Round 10

Wallin is tired. Let's see if Breazeale can take advantage. He's walking Wallin down to get him against the ropes but his shots don't have the same zip and he's missing wildly. 

Very surprised that Wallin is not making more of an effort to keep things in the center of the ring. That is giving Breazeale a little bit of hope. (10-9 Breazeale, 98-92 Wallin)

Wallin is making a mistake by keeping his back against the ropes. Breazeale lands another right uppercut that snaps Wallin's head back. Wallin gets the fight back to the center of the ring and connects on a straight left hand, which stuns Breazeale. Time is ticking and Breazeale buzzes Wallin with another right uppercut. (10-9 Breazeale, 89-82 Wallin)

Breazeale-Wallin Round 8

Before the round begins, the ringside doctor takes a look at Breazeale's right eye. The doctor lets him continue. 

That has seemed to light a fire Breazeale a bit as he connects on a sharp right uppercut. Wallin absorbs the punch well and continues to pound Breazeale's eye with the stinging jab. (10-9 Wallin, 80-72 Wallin)
