On Saturday night, Dec. 6, WBA middleweight champion Danny Jacobs produced one of the most electrifying performances of the year in halting former titlist Peter Quillin in under one round.

Jacobs (31-1, 28 KO’s) stormed out of the gates and had Quillin (32-1-1, 23 KO’s) in trouble courtesy of a right hand within the first minute of the match.  Quillin fought valiantly, but was overwhelmed and saw referee Harvey Dock waive the match off after another right hand blitzed him and had him on shaky legs.

In a shocking result, WBA middleweight champion Danny Jacobs scored a thrilling first round knockout over friendly rival Peter Quillin on Saturday night inside of Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

The fight was highly-anticipated and still found a way to deliver in terms of excitement. A right hand from Jacobs (31-1, 28 KO’s) stunned Quillin (32-1-1, 23 KO’s) in the opening minute of the match and a follow-up barrage left the former champion even more dazed, with referee Harvey Dock waiving the match off at just 85 seconds into the contest.

Danny Garcia and Austin Trout not thrilled about a Floyd Mayweather vs. Marcos Maidana fight

On Saturday night, Marcos Maidana produced a benchmark performance in overpowering the heavily-favored Adrien Broner inside of the Alamodome in San Antonio, Tex. on Showtime’s airwaves.

Scoring knockdowns in rounds two and eight while dishing out heavy punishment in many of the others, Maidana fought a poised and determined fight in the face of the man many had been referring to as one of the future staples of the sport.

The future is now bright for the 30-year old newly-crowned WBA welterweight champion and 2014 brings the promise of meaningful fights for the Argentinean.

Some have even gone as far as to fancy a Maidana matchup with the sport’s pound for pound king Floyd Mayweather, who is looking sharp as ever coming off of dominating victories over Robert Guerrero and Saul Alvarez this year.

During the 9th annual Watson Celebrity Basketball Game in Northridge, Calif., Mayweather could be found playing host to the event as he spoke to the media and later took the court to play some ball.

Prior to the game, HustleBoss.com reporter Mohamed Ali caught up with former junior middleweight champion Austin Trout and current WBA/WBC junior welterweight champion Danny Garcia to get their thoughts on a Mayweather-Maidana clash.

Garcia seemed disinterested, if anything, when giving his view.

“Anything can happen,” Garcia stated. “I’m not a promoter. I’m not a matchmaker. My job is just to fight. It is what it is.”

Trout seemed to be caught off guard more so that Garcia, and feels that Maidana hasn’t quite earned a shot at the game’s top dog just yet.

“I don’t know, man,” Trout stated. “Floyd could fight whoever he wants and it’s going to be a good fight. I don’t know if that was enough to get a Floyd fight. I don’t make the decisions; it’s not my job.”

Peter Quillin vs. Gabriel Rosado: Quillin gets the win after ref stops fight due to Rosado’s bad cut

In an excellent fight, WBO middleweight champion Peter Quillin successfully defended his WBO middleweight crown after challenger Gabriel Rosado saw the fight stopped in the 10th round due to a nasty cut on his left eyelid. Quillin scored a knockdown in the second round but Rosado picked up a lot of momentum after that and appeared to be taking a lot of the late rounds. A jab from Quillin would cause the eventual cut that forced the ringside physician to halt the action. At the time of the stoppage, scorecards reading 90-80, 89-81, and 87-83 all favored Quillin. To be honest the first two scores were completely off base, as this was a competitive fight

On Saturday night, Oct. 27, WBO middleweight champion Peter Quillin found himself in a rough and tumble battle with Gabriel Rosado inside of the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City.

Despite dropping his Philadelphia foe in the second round with a quick left hook, Quillin had to battle through some rocky moments, as Rosado regrouped and forced the fight for many of the following rounds.

Much of the action was give and take, with Quillin landing the sharper punches while Rosado had success imposing his physical strength and unleashing combinations along the ropes.

Rosado would suffer a nasty cut above his left eye in the ninth round, with the gash being bad enough for referee Allan Huggins to elect to stop the action to check it out one round later.
