Amarillo-native Marcus Sursa approached the brink of victory after blasting UFC-vet Eddie Sanchez with a counter punch, but Sanchez demonstrated tremendous toughness in turning the fight around to win by TKO in the third round.
Corpus Christi's Jimmy Flick saw some air-time as the third round of his unanimous decision victory over Humberto DeLeon made the broadcast on Fox Sports Net. It was Flick's pro debut.
