Rigondeaux Shines under the Bright Lights of Broadway Boxing
Four More Unbeaten Prospects Pass Another Test
(December 17, 2009) Guillermo Rigondeaux stayed calm and collected, and in doing so notched his fourth pro win in as many fights, with an eight round unanimous decision win over Lante Addy. The bout headlined Thursday’s Broadway Boxing event from the BB King Blues Club & Grill in New York City .
On the undercard, four other undefeated up-and-comers: heavyweight Tor Hamer, featherweight Luis Del Valle, and junior welterweights Gabriel Bracero and Christian Martinez all kept their perfect records in tact with convincing wins.
Rigondeaux (4-0, 3 KOs ), a Cuban native who won two Olympic gold medals for his homeland prior to defecting earlier this year, wasted no time establishing his supremacy. In the opening minute of the bout, a straight left from the Freddie Roach-trained southpaw, Rigondeaux, put Addy on his back. However, the game challenger rose, and continued to look for spots to counter Rigondeaux’s assault.
As the fight wore on it became apparent that Addy (6-5-1, 4 KOs), originally from Ghana but now based in the United States , simply didn’t have the firepower to match Rigondeaux’s onslaught. Over the course of he final rounds, Rigondeaux boxed beautifully as he coasted home to a unanimous decision win.
Final scores were 80-71, 80-71, and 79-72.
