San Antonio world campion victorious in co-main event on Canelo-GGG card in Las Vegas
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - SEPTEMBER 17: Jesse Rodriguez and Israel Gonzalez exchange punches for the WBC Super Flyweight Title at T-Mobile Arena on September 17, 2022 in Las Vegas, Nevada. SAN ANTONIO — It wasn’t vintage Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez early.
The southpaw Rodriguez overcame a slow start and a point deduction in the eighth round due to a low blow to remain undefeated and successfully defend his WBC super flyweight title. He was the underdog in his previous two fights in his coming out party that saw him defeat two former world champions and gain worldwide attention.
In the eighth round, referee Kenny Bayless took a point away from Rodriguez for a punch below the belt. In the main event, Canelo Alvarez decisively won his third ring meeting with Gennady Golovkin on Saturday night, earning a unanimous-decision victory in the final bout of their entertaining trilogy.
