The 20-year-old Pelicans big man glanced up and smiled widely at the well-wishers -- a fitting end to a day he wont soon forget. Davis responded to his selection earlier in the day as a Western Conference All-Star with 26 points and 10 rebounds, and the New Orleans Pelicans overcame a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves 98-91 on Friday night.BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- Welterweight Felix Diaz delivered a beating to Sammy Vasquez and was nearly robbed on Saturday night at Legacy Arena.Although Diaz eventually won a unanimous decision -- 96-94, 95-94, 95-94 -- there were some anxious moments after the fight when the scorecards were originally announced as a majority draw, 96-94 in favor of Diaz and two 95-95 scorecards.But none of the scorecards seemed to reflect the overwhelming dominance of Diaz in the Premier Boxing Champions co-feature with Deontay Wilders heavyweight world title defense against Chris Arreola on Fox in prime time. ESPN.com scored the fight 99-91 for Diaz, as did many at ringside, including promoter Lou DiBella, who does not have a vested interest in either boxer.If not for a point deduction from Vasquez for spitting out his mouthpiece in the 10th round, the fight actually would have been a draw.When I first heard it was a draw, I felt like I was the winner and I got robbed like in my fight against Lamont Peterson, Diaz said. I definitely feel like the scores should have been wider on the cards, but I understand. The first couple of rounds I was feeling him out, but after those first couple I feel like I won every round.Vasquez was classy in defeat.I knew in my heart I lost that fight, Vasquez said. I tried my hardest, but there were things I should have done that I didnt do. We cant look in the past. Hes a hell of fighter. Hes an Olympic gold medalist for a reason. He had a tough decision loss to Lamont Peterson. To me, he was an undefeated Olympic gold medalist.I take nothing away from the man. Hes a hell of a fighter. Im a hell of a fighter. At the end of the day we put on a great show. Well huddle up and start back at the drawing board. Ive got to start knocking those names down again.Diaz, although a smaller man, had no problem getting inside against fellow southpaw Vasquez and taking it to him. He landed some hard right hands and forced Vasquez to hold often.Since Vasquez is taller than me and has longer reach, my plan of attack was to stay inside and fight him at a close distance, Diaz said.He pasted Vasquez with combinations in the third and fourth rounds. In the fifth round, Diaz was even more dominant, pressing Vasquez against the ropes late in the round and teeing off on him with sustained combinations that had referee Keith Hughes looking at him closely.By the seventh round, Vasquezs face was bloody as Diaz continued to tag him around the ring with body shots and left hands.Diaz, (18-1, 8 KOs), a 2008 Dominican Olympic gold medalist, was dominating in the eighth round and clobbering Vasquez (21-1, 15 KOs), 30, of Monessen, Pennsylvania, along the ropes when his mouthpiece came out. Hughes called timeout to replace it, giving him a reprieve. But Diaz, 32, went right back at him and finished the round strong.Diaz, coming off his first loss, a controversial 10-round decision to former junior welterweight titleholder Peterson in October, opened a cut in the corner of Vasquezs right eye in the 10th round, perhaps on a head butt, but the blood was streaming down his face badly enough for a timeout to be called so the ringside doctor could examine him.When the fight resumed, there was a fierce exchange in which Diaz knocked out Vasquezs mouthpiece in the final seconds and Hughes docked the fight-deciding point from him.Ive never been in a situation where I had to wait for them to add up the scores again because, obviously, I was undefeated, Vasquez said. This is my first loss. Losses you learn from. Losses just mean you have room to grow. Well take this and come back strong the next time.The fight came together only two weeks ago. Vasquez, who served two tours of duty in Iraq as a member of the U.S. National Guard, was due to face former welterweight world titleholder Luis Collazo, but he pulled out of the bout after suffering a torn calf muscle in training. Diaz, who was training for a lower-profile PBC fight on July 12, was switched to the card to face Vasquez.I took this fight on oonly 15 days notice, and before this I was preparing for a right-handed fighter, so it was a bit of an adjustment, Diaz said.dddddddddddd. I only had two weeks to make the changes that I needed to. Im thankful to my team for getting me ready for this fight.Fighting on a Fox and Fox Deportes prime-time card and looking as good as I did makes me very happy. Im ready for anyone at 140 or 147 pounds.Lubin shuts out MonteroBlue-chip junior middleweight prospect Erickson Lubin, so much faster and more skilled, dominated Ivan Montero en route to a shutout decision, 80-72 on all three scorecards.Lubin, a 20-year-old southpaw known as The Hammer, indeed hammered Montero to the body regularly and went upside his head also in the one-sided fight.Referee Flynn Gerald warned Lubin for a low blow in the fourth round but that did not deter him from working Monteros body.Lubin (16-0, 11 KOs), who signed a pro contract on his 18th birthday, closed the seventh round with a series of rapid-fire body and head shots that had Mexicos Montero (20-2, 8 KOs) reeling.Heavyweight Gerald Washington (18-0-1, 12 KOs), of Vallejo, California, scored a brutal fourth-round knockout of long-faded 45-year-old former world title challenger Ray Austin (29-8-4, 18 KOs), of Cleveland.It was a sloppy fight filled with holding and grabbing, but then Washington, who won his second fight in a row, turned out the lights. He caught Austin with multiple head shots, including a powerful right hand that knocked him flat on his back and seemingly out cold. But referee Flynn Gerald counted all the way to 10 for no reason before stopping the fight at 1 minute, 45 seconds. Austin, who suffered a second-round knockout challenging then-world champion Wladimir Klitschko in 2007, lost for the fourth time in his past five fights.Lightweight Ryan Martin (15-0, 9 KOs), a 23-year-old top prospect from Cleveland, rolled past journeyman Samuel Amoako (21-12, 15 KOs), a Ghana native fighting out of Silver Spring, Maryland. Martin, displaying fast hands and a lot of combinations, peppered Amoako throughout the shutout decision win, 60-54 on all three scorecards.Las Vegas welterweight Layla McCarter (38-13-5, 9 KOs) won a unanimous decision against familiar foe Melissa Hernandez (22-7-3, 7 KOs), of Miami Beach, in a womens bout. McCarter won on scores of 80-72, 79-73 and 78-74 in their fourth meeting. McCarter holds a 3-1 edge against Hernandez, whom she also beat in a lopsided eight-round decision in 2014 and by eighth-round knockout in February 2007. In April 2007, Hernandez won an eight-round majority decision.Middleweight KeAndrae Leatherwood (18-3-1, 12 KOs), of Birmingham, scored a sensational second-round knockout of Tyrone Selders (9-11-1, 6 KOs), of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Leatherwood badly hurt him in the second round with a right hand that had him touch his knee to the canvas, but referee Jeff Dodson missed it. Moments later, however, Leatherwood crushed Selders with a right hand and put him away with a left hook that dropped him flat on his back, and Dodson immediately called off the fight at 2 minutes, 30 seconds.Birmingham middleweight Kenneth McNeil (10-2, 7 KOs) knocked out Robert Burwell (6-2, 2 KOs), of Orlando, Florida, at 2 minutes, 2 seconds. It was a brawl from the outset until McNeil dropped Burwell to a knee with a clean left hook in the second round. Burwell beat the count, but moments later, McNeil unleashed a brutal flurry of shots to the head that dropped him again. Burwells corner came into the ring, but referee Flynn Gerald was oblivious as he counted. But when he noticed them in the ring he called off the fight.Orlando-based heavyweight Robert Alfonso-Acea (6-0, 2 KOs), a former standout on the Cuban national team, cruised to a near shutout of Jamal Woods (8-28-6, 8 KOs), of Flint, Michigan. Alfonso-Acea easily outboxed him to win by scores of 60-54, 60-54 and 59-55. ' ' '
