(October 5, 2007) Corona, California (Omega Products International)—-

The man who could use some help with his spelling hit the guy suffering from severe jet lag with just about everything but the alphabet.

Undefeated bantamweight Yonnhy Perez, who actually pronounces his handle Johnny, laid the wood to the Russian traveler Alexander Fedorov; a fighter that arrived seven days earlier in this country and seemed to be back on his heels for most of the evening while fighting outdoors.

Perez repeatedly battered Fedorov around the ring and after landing a clean left cross followed by a pile driving overhand right to the jaw that sent the Russian reeling into the ropes, referee Raul Caiz Jr. halted the mismatch at 44-seconds of the fourth round.

"There's still work to be done and I know I can get better, especially when it comes to cutting off the ring. But I feel I'm ready to step up and take on any of the top guys in the division," Perez explained. "Learning-wise, this was a good fight for me and it being on television made it even better. I am very happy, extremely satisfied. The guy was tough, awkward and moved a lot. But I know I can hit, and if I can hurt an opponent, I can finish him. So I am not surprised the referee stopped it when he did."

Fedorov had been out of action for 18 months; however, he was at a loss to explain his poor performance.

"More than anything, I just didn't feel like myself in there," Fedorov said. "I thought a week was enough time to get acclimated but it was not. Everything was off. I never felt like I usually do. I give Perez credit; he is a good fighter, but I am a much better fighter than I showed tonight."

--One Sided--

Perez's faster hands and Fedorov's tendency to drop his gloves made for a short night of work. The 28-year-old Perez, of Santa Fe Springs, California via Cartagena, Colombia repeatedly landed hard whistling shots that thudded off of the Russian's profile.

In the second round of a bout scheduled for ten heats, Perez (14-0, 11 KO's) ripped Fedorov (17-5-1, 10 KO's) with a scalding counter right hand to the chin followed later in the round by a chopping right hand over the top that rocked the Russian.

At the 2:05 mark of the 3rd, the rangy Perez (118) caught his opponent with a digging left hook to the body followed by chopping right hand that just grazed Fedorov's (118) jaw. Fedorov's jab was non-existent and he was forced to fight while backing up and he never seemed to establish any rhythm while compelled to give ground. With 1:10 to go in the round, Perez caught Fedorov, Cheboksary, Russia with a three-shot combination the face that snapped his head straight back.

Perez returned to getting off first and drilling the 30-year-old Fedorov with hard left jabs, jolting left hooks to the midsection and snapping right hands upstairs. Just before the bell to end the 3rd, Perez connected with another looping but nonetheless jolting three-punch combination that rattled off of the Russian's jaw and for an instant buckled Fedorov's knees and when he returned to his corner there was blood trickling from his nostrils.

--Show Stopper--

The pounding continued to the 4th and ultimately the last round, as Fedorov offered very little offense while continuing to retreat. At the 2:27 mark of the round, Perez clipped the Russian boxer with another long right hand to the face. Perez was relentless and he continued to score with looping overhand rights to the face and sweeping left hooks to the ribs and belly.

Finally with 2:17 to go in the round, Perez unloaded with a long left hook square on the jaw followed by yet another roundhouse right hand that caught Fedorov flush on the chin. The two-punch combination buckled Fedorov's knees and as he was falling he staggered back into the ropes. Perez landed another sharp right hand to the head and referee Raul Caiz Jr. jumped between the fighters and ended the prolonged punishment.

The spelling challenged bantamweight Yonnhy Perez went into the record books with another victory via a TKO at 44-seconds of the fourth round.

--Bey Grinds Down Gonzalez--

Former United States Olympian Mickey Bey Jr. (9-0, 6 KOs) scored two knockdowns en route to hammering out a second-round knockout over outclassed Castulo Gonzalez (9-4, 3 KOs).

Bey, fighting out of Cleveland, Ohio, began teeing off on his opponent in the opening round of a fight scheduled for eight rounds. Jolting left hooks continued to penetrate Gonzalez's lackluster defense, as Bey bounced several head snapping left hooks off of his opponent's skull. Late in the 1st, Bey drew a caution from referee Jose Cobain to get his punches up.

With 2:35 to go in the 2nd, Bey clocked Gonzalez, Lynn, Massachusetts, via Puerto San Jose, Guatemala with a crushing left hook to the jaw that dropped the boxer flat on his back. Gonzalez rolled off the deck and was back on his feet at the count of four. Bey continued to land riveting punches but with 2:04 to go in the 4th, he floored Gonzalez with yet another devastating left hook and he fell back into the ropes. Gonzalez managed to make it to his feet at the count of three but in retrospect it wasn't the wisest move.

Bey returned to hammering away at his fading opponent and then with 1:21 to go in the round, he scored with two more punishing shots that richochtted off of Gonzalez's jaw and the referee finally halted the one-sided encounter. Mickey Bey had registered a TKO victory at 1:41 of the second round.
