Battle in the Ballroom results!

By David Finger

Roy Englebrecht Promotions scored another knockout with its 14th straight sellout at the “Battle in the Ballroom” at the Irvine Marriot Hotel in Orange County, California. In front of a standing room crowd only of 1412 fans Monday evening, undefeated welterweight prospect Hector “Teco” Serrano improved his record to 2-0 with an entertaining five round decision over Dario Castillo (1-2).

Also in action, Anthony Mooney (2-1) scored a lopsided four-round decision over pro-debuter Tony Sanchez in a heavyweight contest. James Buggs earned a hard-fought decision over the lanky Lavelle Nichols in a five round junior middleweight bout. Nichols was dropped in the closing seconds of the third round. Buggs improved to 7-7 while Nichols dropped to 2-6.
